Demonstrates solving tridiagonal and arbitrary systems using direct and iterative methods (e.g., Thomas algorithm, Jacobi, Gauss-Seidel), with application to real modeling tasks
Contains implementations of the bisection (dichotomy), Newton, and simple iteration methods for solving non-linear equations. Demonstrates convergence efficiency and robustness on real physical functions
Features various quadrature methods (rectangular, trapezoidal, Simpson's), with error analysis and comparisons on benchmark test cases
Includes explicit and implicit schemes for ODEs, such as Euler, improved Euler and Runge-Kutta methods, tested on classical physical systems (oscillator, decay, etc.)
Presents approaches for numerically solving ordinary differential equations with boundary conditions, including finite difference schemes, shooting methods, and matrix formulations. Analysis includes stability, convergence on heat conduction and physical diffusion models
