Buckling of Tubes
The video here The Surfing Scientist shows a rough and ready experiment demonstrating the superior strength under axial load of cylindrical tubes, compared with square tubes (skip to 1:30 if you are not interested in the chat). The conclusion about … Continue reading

Using the AlgLib ODE (Runge-Kutta) Solver with Excel
Or to be more correct, the AlgLib Cash-Karp Solver, Cash-Karp being a refinement of the Runge-Kutta method of solving ordinary differential equations. Solution of differential equations is an iterative process requiring the repeated application of the solver routine followed by evaluation of … Continue reading
