Data Visualization and Phase Identification through Stacked Plots part of Teaching Computation with MATLAB:MATLAB Workshop 2023:Activities
Sujat Sen, University of Wisconsin-La Crosse
In this classroom activity, students will take experimentally collected powder X-Ray diffraction (XRD) data they have acquired from a laboratory exercise and plot it collectively as a stacked plot against known ...
Numerical Differentiation for Chemical Engineers part of Teaching Computation with MATLAB:MATLAB Workshop October 2021:Activities
Roman Voronov, New Jersey Institute of Technology
In this activity students learn to apply appropriate numerical differentation formulas to non-uniformly spaced data. The concept is applied to a chemical engineering problem where the goal is to measure how the ...
Sensitivity of Parameters in Chaotic Systems part of Teaching Computation with MATLAB:MATLAB Workshop 2019:Activities
Namyong Lee, Minnesota State University-Mankato
In this computer lab activity, students explore and discuss the nature of the sensitivity of parameters in a chaotic system. As a result, they understand the challenges of numerical simulation and/or parameters ...
