Stephen Wolfram's Mathematica system has been received with much critical acclaim by both the scientific and educational communities. In this paper I describe how this ...

This paper presents various examples of symbolic analysis of mechanical, electrical, and thermal networks. These examples illustrate several ways in which symbolic analysis ...

Recursive algorithms--often espoused by designers of computer languages--are a mixed blessing when it comes to practical computational algorithms needed in the physical ...

The possibility of construction of efficient databases in mechanics is illustrated by using the computer algebra system Mathematica. In the same system, it is also possible ...

Many mathematical concepts in analysis (and in most other subfields of mathematics, except perhaps finite mathematics) involve "change" and some kind of limiting process. ...

A reverse force analysis of a spatial three-spring system is presented which determines equilibrium positions when an external force is applied. The system consists of three ...

Symbolic computational systems introduce some unique features in computational engineering. There have been several papers published on the solution of differential equations ...

This course is intended for undergraduate students in mathematics, physics and engineering. It strikes a balance between the pure and applied aspects of complex analysis. ...

Mathematica CalcCenter 3 combines an innovative interface with key features from Mathematica Professional's industry-leading algebraic solutions, number crunching, data ...

The use of information technology in addition to traditional lectures affords a means to develop student intuition and curiosity, reaching in the same time a deep knowledge ...
