Numerical Solution of Damped Harmonic Oscillator and Simulation using GNumeric Spreadsheets and Python Codes
Abstract: The damped harmonics oscillator problems have been solved numerically using classical Runge-Kutta method.The differential equations are solved in a Free Open Source Software (FOSS) GNumeric, a simple worksheet environment. The requisite algorithm is implemented in another FOSS python. Initial values for the simulation were taken from model parameters given in the book on C for Computer Simulation in Physics by R. C. Verma and Setul Verma, which were then optimized to obtain the best convergence for the particular problems.
Keywords: Runge-Kutta method, FOSS, Python codes, Gnuemeric worksheets
