National Technical Reports Library

The National Technical Information Service acquires, indexes, abstracts, and archives the largest collection of U.S. government-sponsored technical reports in existence. The NTRL offers online, free and open access to these authenticated government technical reports. Technical reports and documents in its repository may be available online for free either from the issuing federal agency, the U.S. Government Publishing Office’s Federal Digital System website, or through search engines.

A Fortran IV Program to Derive the Equations of Motion of Systems.

AD648720

Publication Date	1966
Personal Author	Westerwick, R. A.; Brown, J. B.
Page Count	130
Abstract	The state of the art of computer development has reached the point where it is now possible to sacrifice some of the extremely high speed of arithmetic computations in order to relieve man of tedium in another area - that of algebraic computation. The report presents the results of a development which uses an IBM 7090/94 computer to derive in nonnumeric terms the equations of motion of a system. This system can be composed of any number of masses which are acted upon by forces due to springs, dampers, gravity, and external forces. (Author)
