Visual introduction to bifurcations University of Szeged, Hungary
Investigating the dependence on parameters is essential in studying dynamical systems. In particular, the bifurcation theory is getting more and more important in most fields of engineering and sciences. Nevertheless, these theories are hardly included in standard university curricula.
We will give an intuitive introduction with the help of dynamic demonstrations developed in Mathematica. We consider elementary examples of both difference and differential equations presenting different types of bifurcation. During the whole treatment, we keep in mind the real didactic “contradiction” that the students do not or only partly have the required knowledge. The interactive demonstrations will be available on our website www.model.u-szeged.hu.
MEASURES OF GEOMETRIC OBJECTS AS THE LIMIT VALUES 1University of Novi Sad, Serbia; 2Elementary school of Nis; 3Faculty of Mechanical Engineering Nis
The idea for this work is based on the visualization of the limit process in elementary school. The circumference of a circle is obtained visually starting from the perimeter of regular polygon. The volume of cylinder is obtained visually starting from the volume of prism.
