Differential equations are fundamental tools in physics: they are used to describe phenomena ranging from fluid dynamics to general relativity. But when these equations become stiff (i.e. they involve ...

Researchers from the Institute of Cosmos Sciences of the University of Barcelona (ICCUB) have developed a new framework based ...

Mathematics of Computation, Vol. 83, No. 286 (MARCH 2014), pp. 771-788 (18 pages) In this paper the authors propose a Nyström method based on a "truncated" Gaussian rule to solve systems of Fredholm ...

You can use a SOLVE statement to solve the nonlinear equation system for some variables when the values of other variables are given. Consider the demand and supply model shown in the preceding ...

Equations that have more than one unknown can have an infinite number of solutions. For example, \(2x + y = 10\) could be solved by: \(x = 1\) and \(y = 8\) \(x = 2\) and \(y = 6\) \(x = 3\) and \(y = ...

A mathematician at Carnegie Mellon University has developed an easier way to solve quadratic equations. The mathematician hopes this method will help students avoid memorizing obtuse formulas. His ...
