I think you posted this just so you could use the term Second Order Linear Differential Equation.

I was totally SOLDE on the term.

Ha ha... Ha... *runs like Usher*

Specific to those kinds of problems: http://tutorial.math.lamar.edu/Classes/DE/Vibrations.aspx

But you should probably read this first: http://tutorial.math.lamar.edu/Classes/DE/SecondOrderConcepts.aspx

This website is excellent.

Eeeexcellent! durodragon May 6 2010, 20:11:21 UTC
Thanks man. XD That is a pretty hot site, thanks for hooking me up!

Turns out I decided against being super fancy for my presentation and just did the grunt-level brute-force algebra method of proving that x is a solution to formula y, via taking lots of derivatives and plugging and chugging and explaining where it equals zero.

If only because I figured I ultimately couldn't competently explain even a specific case like this with like reams of tutorials. That and it would confuse the Hell out of people who basically don't care.

Still! Thanks for helping me out!

Someone put Calculus in my Physics so now I see the world in terms of integrals and derivatives. @_@

I am! Just terribly, horribly busy. Engineering degrees are serious business.
