Runge–Kutta Stability Regions

Absolute-stability regions in the z = hλ plane for explicit Euler, RK2, and RK4; move λ and h, compare |R(z)|, and see why stiff modes constrain explicit time steps.

Heat Equation: Finite Differences

1D heat equation u_t = αu_xx with explicit FTCS and implicit backward Euler; tune CFL r = αΔt/Δx², watch explicit blow-up for r > 1/2, and compare numerical diffusion.

Advection Schemes: Upwind / LW / MacCormack

Linear advection u_t + cu_x = 0 on a periodic grid: compare upwind diffusion, Lax-Wendroff and MacCormack dispersive ringing, exact pulse translation, L2 error, and CFL ν.

Finite Element Poisson Solver (2D)

Triangular P1 finite elements for -Δu=f on a square: assemble stiffness matrices, pin Dirichlet nodes or add natural Neumann flux, solve by CG, and view potential as a colored membrane.

Julia Set Explorer

This interactive simulator explores Julia Set Explorer in Math Visualization. Pick c by clicking the embedded mini-Mandelbrot or animate c along a circle; Fatou dust vs connected sets. Use the controls to change the scenario; watch the visualization and any graphs or readouts to connect the model with lectures, labs, and homework.

Who it's for: For learners comfortable with heavier math or second-level detail. Typical context: Math Visualization.

How it works

Julia set for a fixed parameter c: pixels are colored by how fast the orbit zₙ₊₁ = zₙ² + c escapes for that z₀. Picking c inside the Mandelbrot set gives a connected fractal; picking c outside gives a Cantor dust of disconnected points. Click on the small Mandelbrot map to pick c, or hit ▶ to walk c around the circle of radius 0.7885 — the Julia set morphs in real time.

Key equations

J(c) = ∂{ z₀ ∈ ℂ : supₙ|zₙ| < ∞ }, zₙ₊₁ = zₙ² + c
connected ⇔ c ∈ M (Fatou–Julia)
