ODE Workbench

Performing the mathematical computations required to solve ordinary differential equations is a laborious task at best, and even with a computer, it may seem like you spend more time programming than you do thinking about physics or math. If this scenario sounds all too familiar, you need ODE Workbench - a power-packed computational tool that solves ordinary differential equations with accuracy and ease.
Ideal for students, teachers, and researchers in physics, engineering, and math, ODE uses one common interface to solve for a large class of functional differential equations. It produces graphical output determined by a user for a specified system, which makes it simple to define a system or higher-order differential equation and immediately see a graph of the time development. Even when an exact solution is known, in many cases the system can only be fully understood by graphing the expressions and viewing the output. This visualization capability opens the door to extended exploration that isn't possible with more basic tools.
In addition to being a powerful working utility, ODE is also a strong pedagogical tool for teaching and learning about nonlinear dynamic systems, differential equations, deterministic chaos, and mechanics. Many of these topics, traditionally omitted because of their mathematical complexity, can now be introduced to students earlier in their studies and analyzed easily. This encourages a more holistic view of the sciences early in the learning process.
All expressions in ODE are written in standard notation, and the entire program is controlled by an intuitive, menu-driven system. No programming is required, and you have complete access to a context-sensitive, cross-referenced help system. The user's manual is extensive and includes the following sections: an overview of the program; a step-by-step tutorial; explanations for setting up and specifying equations and initial conditions; a summary of solution methods and output options; instructions for solving a problem; a complete menu reference; detailed technical information; sample problem files; and an instructor's guide. 200 pp.
