State of evaluation:
finalist
Submission Category:
department project
Discipline:
natural science, including agriculture
The program is mainly used in:
Physics(mechanics, electrodynamics, optics), theor
Physics of Oscillations (for Windows)
The educational software package intended to aid the learning of physics by means of simulation experiment. Developed as a kind of desk-top laboratory, the software can be used for individual int teractive work. Context sensitive online hypertext help with detailed explanations of the phenomena is available. Questions and problems suggest activities. The software is designed for use at a wi de range of levels from introductory physics students to advanced undergraduate students. Programs of the package allow to observe the simulations of oscillation processes in various linear and no nlinear mechanical systems and to analyze the plots of the variables describing the system, as well as the phase diagrams and the plots of energy transformations.
