PROPAGATION OF NON-UNIFORM STRING


## The string is made up of two different mass density strings
## seperated in the middle. Choose the right one to be ligther
## than the left. So, since velocity is inversely propotional
## to the mass density, than the rigth one is faster also.
## r1=c1*dt/dx and r2=c1*dt/dx
function ynext=propagate_two_parts(ynow,yprev,r1,r2)
## initiallization for, take y as previos one
ynext=ynow;
## we have two parts, hence two loops are needed
## the first part is between x=0 and
## let y(now)/2 for better visiulation.
## floor(x) returns the largest integer not greater than x
## length(x) determines the number of column
## or rows in matrix or vector
##I started the 'for' from x=0 but didn't work
##then started from x=1
## but in this case the
## string_two_parts didn't work
## let x0=i0=2
for i=2:floor(length(ynow)/2)
ynext(i) = 2*(1-r1^2)*ynow(i)-yprev(i)+r1^2*(ynow(i+1)+ynow(i-1));
endfor
## the second part is between x0=(L1+L2) /2 and L1+L2 where
## L1 and L2 are string lenghts respectively
## I started the 2nd for from N2steps
## and finished it by 'ynow' but it
## didn't work. So i tried the following
for i=floor(length(ynow)/2)+1:floor(length(ynow))-1
ynext(i) = 2*(1-r2^2)*ynow(i)-yprev(i)+r2^2*(ynow(i+1)+ynow(i-1));
endfor
endfunction

FACTORIAL

## Function that calculates the factorial of a number ## Usage : f=factorial(n) function f=factorial(n) ## Initialize the output f=1; ## Check whether the input is correct if ( (n<0) || (rem(n,1)~=0) ) printf("n cannot be a negative number. Exiting...\n"); return endif for num=1:n f*=num; endfor endfunction

REALISTIC AND NON-REALISTIC STRINGS

## A 'realistic', 'non-elastic' string, which responses to any ## bending and has stifness. This script takes in the previous ## and the present profiles and iterates to find ## the profile in the next time step. The ratio 'r' is not 1 ## like in the 'non-realistic' string since the speed of the wave ## always less than the speed of the string it should be less than 1 ## for best and most stable solution ##constants dx=1e-2 ## Spatial increment (m) L=2 ## Length of the string (m) M=L/dx ## Dimensionless partition E=1e-4 ## Dimensionless stiffnes function ynext=propagate_stiff(ynow,yprev,r) ## Quick and dirty way to fix boundary conditions -- for each step ## they are the same as the previous step. ynext=ynow; ynow(1)=ynow(2)=0; ##Entering the loop for i=3:length(ynow)-1 ## boundary condition ynow(length(ynow)-1)=ynow(length(ynow)-2)=0; ## Divide the ynext with many terms into three parts for easiness ynext(i)=(2−(2*r^2)−(6*E*(r^2)*...
