Marks are in for Winter 2016
Marks are in for Winter 2016
I started my formal re-education program back in 2010 after 20 years out of school. The first few courses were particularly tough after such a long break from school (and exam based courses still are), but I’m getting the hang of playing that game again. Here’s my score so far:

Laplace transform refresher
[mathjax]
[Click here for a PDF of this post with nicer formatting]
Laplace transforms were used to solve the MNA equations for time dependent systems, and to find the moments used to in MOR.
For the record, the Laplace transform is defined as:
\begin{equation}\label{eqn:laplaceTransformVec:20} \boxed{ \LL( f(t) ) = \int_0^\infty e^{-s t} f(t) dt. } \end{equation}
The only Laplace transform pair…

Model order reduction (cont).
An approximation of the following system is sought
\begin{equation}\label{eqn:multiphysicsL19:20} \BG \Bx(t) + C \dot{\Bx}(t) = B \Bu(t) \end{equation} \begin{equation}\label{eqn:multiphysicsL19:40} \By(t) = \BL^\T \Bx(t).

Stability of discretized linear differential equations

In class today was a highlight of stability methods for linear multistep methods. To motivate the methods used, it is helpful to take a step back and review stability concepts for LDE systems.
By way of example, consider a second order LDE homogeneous system defined by
\begin{equation}\label{eqn:stabilityLDEandDiscreteTime:20} \f…
