Physics By Computer: Programming Physical Problems Using Mathematica and C


Now here is the first of a coming series of ebooks that I have found in the web! Create Liapunov Curves and Bifurcation diagrams and simulate the Chaotic Pendulum and many more! Explore the wonders of Computational Physics!! You can also do the programs in Python.


Physics By Computer: Programming Physical Problems Using Mathematica and C


Wolfgang Kinzel, Georg Reents

Springer|ISBN 3-540-62743-X |299 pages|DJVU|6.17MB


Computational Physics has undergone rapid development in recent years and is being integrated into physics education as a standard part. This course, intended for upper-division undergraduate or graduate students, was designed by W. Kinzel and G. Reents as a textbook in computational physics but may also serve as a supplement to courses in theoretical physics.

It is an introduction to the solution of physical models by computer. The programs developed in this book are based on the modern computer languages Mathematica@ and C and are written for PCs as well as for workstations. 28 examples from different fields of physics are worked out, including chaos, fractals, the Hofstadter butterfly, phase transitions, MonteCarlo simulations, percolation, polymers, combinatorial optimization, neural networks, and game theory. Detailed explanation of the algorithms and computer programs together with source files and graphics routines help the student gain thorough experience right from the start.

System requirements: Mathematica@ 2.2 or 3.0, C compiler.
