Elegant solutions, Column buckling, and the hole through the middle of the Earth
The previous post presented some examples of solution of differential equations using an iterative process, including the simple harmonic motion problem of a ball falling through an evacuated hole through the middle of the Earth. The final example was concerned … Continue reading
