浅析MathCAD数值模拟在大学物理教学中应用

Brief Analysis on the Application of MathCAD Numerical Simulation in University Physics Teaching

首先对MathCAD的特点和应用进行概述,然后引用拍现象、等势线、麦克斯韦速率分布律、光栅衍射一些典型的实例,阐述了MathCAD数值模拟在大学物理教学中的广泛应用,最后指出在大学物理教学中适当引入MathCAD数值模拟将有助于学生对物理概念的理解,并提高学生的综合能力.

In this paper,the characteristics and application of MathCAD are summarized at first.Then some typical examples,such as beat phenomenon,equipotential line,Maxwell velocity distribution law and grating diffraction,are cited to illustrate the wide application of MathCAD numerical simulation in university physics teaching.At last it is suggested that the use of MathCAD numerical imitation in university physics teaching can help students to understand the physical concept and improve the comprehensive ability.
