   George Dantzig. George Bernard Dantzig ( / ˈdæntsɪɡ /; November 8, 1914 – May 13, 2005) was an American mathematical scientist who made contributions to industrial engineering, operations research, computer science, economics, and statistics . Dantzig is known for his development of the simplex algorithm, [1] an algorithm for solving ...

3. Open Source Physics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Source_Physics

   Open Source Physics, or OSP, is a project sponsored by the National Science Foundation and Davidson College, whose mission is to spread the use of open source code libraries that take care of a lot of the heavy lifting for physics: drawing and plotting, differential equation solvers, exporting to animated GIFs and movies, etc., tools, and compiled simulations for physics and other numerical ...

4. Diffusion equation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion_equation

   Diffusion equation. The diffusion equation is a parabolic partial differential equation. In physics, it describes the macroscopic behavior of many micro-particles in Brownian motion, resulting from the random movements and collisions of the particles (see Fick's laws of diffusion ). In mathematics, it is related to Markov processes, such as ...

5. List of equations in classical mechanics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_equations_in...

   Classical mechanics is the branch of physics used to describe the motion of macroscopic objects. It is the most familiar of the theories of physics. The concepts it covers, such as mass, acceleration, and force, are commonly used and known. The subject is based upon a three-dimensional Euclidean space with fixed axes, called a frame of reference.

6. Riemann solver - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemann_solver

   Definition. Generally speaking, Riemann solvers are specific methods for computing the numerical flux across a discontinuity in the Riemann problem. They form an important part of high-resolution schemes; typically the right and left states for the Riemann problem are calculated using some form of nonlinear reconstruction, such as a flux limiter or a WENO method, and then used as the input for ...

7. Exact diagonalization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exact_diagonalization

   Exact diagonalization (ED) is a numerical technique used in physics to determine the eigenstates and energy eigenvalues of a quantum Hamiltonian. In this technique, a Hamiltonian for a discrete, finite system is expressed in matrix form and diagonalized using a computer. Exact diagonalization is only feasible for systems with a few tens of ...
