Teaching Graphical Simulations of Fourier Series Expansion of Some Periodic Waves Using Spreadsheets
Singh, Iqbal; Kaur, Bikramjeet – Physics Education, 2018
The present article demonstrates a way of programming using an Excel spreadsheet to teach Fourier series expansion in school/colleges without the knowledge of any typical programming language. By using this, a student learns to approximate partial sum of the n terms of Fourier series for some periodic signals such as square wave, saw tooth wave,…

Sabin, J.; Bandin, M.; Prieto, G.; Sarmiento, F. – Physics Education, 2009
We present a new practical exercise to explain the mechanisms of aggregation of some colloids which are otherwise not easy to understand. We have used tennis balls to simulate, in a visual way, the aggregation of colloids under reaction-limited colloid aggregation (RLCA) and diffusion-limited colloid aggregation (DLCA) regimes. We have used the…

Kinsella, I. A.; Hannaidh, P. B. O. – Physics Education, 1978
Describes a simulation method for measurement of errors that requires calculators and tables of random digits. Each student simulates the random behaviour of the component variables in the function and by combining the results of all students, the outline of the sampling distribution of the function can be obtained.
