IMPROVED COMPUTER SOFTWARE FOR THE TEACHING OF ORDINARY DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS: The ODEToolkit in the Classroom Setting
نویسنده
چکیده
We discuss a collection of commonly-accepted goals for future education in the field of ordinary differential equations, especially as involves the uses of technology in the classroom. We single out several of these as particularly in need of further emphasis, and discuss methods for improvement. Specifically, we introduce the ODEToolkit, a free, online differential equations solver designed specifically to help a professor incorporate these paradigms into an introductory course.

On solving ordinary differential equations of the first order by updating the Lagrange multiplier in variational iteration method
In this paper, we have proposed a new iterative method for finding the solution of ordinary differential equations of the first order. In this method we have extended the idea of variational iteration method by changing the general Lagrange multiplier which is defined in the context of the variational iteration method.This causes the convergent rate of the method increased compared with the var...

In this paper, differential transform method (DTM) is described and is applied to solve systems of nonlinear ordinary differential equations which is arising in HIV infections of cell. Intervals of validity of the solution will be extended by using Pade approximation. The results also will be compared with those results obtained by Runge-Kutta method. The technique is described and is illustrat...
متن کاملNumerical inversion of Laplace transform via wavelet in ordinary differential equations
This paper presents a rational Haar wavelet operational method for solving the inverse Laplace transform problem and improves inherent errors from irrational Haar wavelet. The approach is thus straightforward, rather simple and suitable for computer programming. We define that $P$ is the operational matrix for integration of the orthogonal Haar wavelet. Simultaneously, simplify the formulaes of...
متن کاملSolving nonlinear Lane-Emden type equations with unsupervised combined artificial neural networks
In this paper we propose a method for solving some well-known classes of Lane-Emden type equations which are nonlinear ordinary differential equations on the semi-innite domain. The proposed approach is based on an Unsupervised Combined Articial Neural Networks (UCANN) method. Firstly, The trial solutions of the differential equations are written in the form of feed-forward neural networks cont...
متن کاملSolving nonlinear space-time fractional differential equations via ansatz method
In this paper, the fractional partial differential equations are defined by modified Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative. With the help of fractional derivative and fractional complex transform, these equations can be converted into the nonlinear ordinary differential equations. By using solitay wave ansatz method, we find exact analytical solutions of the space-time fractional Zakharov Kuz...
