It's odd how this old thread has popped back up to the top. Joey Thompson may have been back, but it seems like he disappeared again years ago.

Are you going to give us some interesting examples? (with workings out obviously)

Shades of Bruce Springsteen's "Glory Days". Nostalgia abounds.Too bad I gave away my (circa 1970) copy of Kreyszig Adv Engr Math Text. The latest edition is was over $100. For ROI (Return On Investment), I buy the Schaum Outlines Series. What does JT use?

I am not totally Mired in the Past though, I use a Student Edition of MatLab. In Sept 1969 at SU as a Frosh Engineering Student, I took a Computer Methods in Engr. The course used the APL Language Timeshared on an IBM 360. Every time I start Matlab, I flash-back to 1969.

Hi Joey,

I had extensive DE exposure back in school, but I have to be honest, I have rarely used it in my career.

But if you enjoy playing with equations, try using DE in Maxwell's Equations.

I have been reviewing those to see if they effect my new atom model.

So far, my approach satisfies all of Maxwell's laws for how charges and magnetic fields interact, so I think I am on the right track.

I like ODEs too, Laplace transform, stability analysis and all that good stuff.
