The purpose of these pages is to provide free access to modules that can help students extend their knowledge, understanding, and problem solving skills in Electricity and Magnetism at the Undergraduate Junior Senior Level. \u00a0The classic textbook, Griffiths: Introduction to Electrodynamics, sets the level of these exercises.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Mathematica Notebooks below are Modules treating topics from Griffiths Introduction to Electrodynamics in the chapters indicated.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

To download simply click on the titles<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

To view and execute you need to have a somewhat recent version of Wolfram’s Mathematica. \u00a0(Student Versions are fairly inexpensive.)<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Mathematica Tutorials<\/strong><\/h5>\n

 <\/p>\n

There are tons of Mathematica tutorials on the web. \u00a0Wolfram has several at their site (www.wolfram.com<\/a><\/span><\/span>). \u00a0The free ones should suffice.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This might be a good place to start:<\/strong> \u00a0https:\/\/lab.wolframcloud.com\/app\/<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Here are some videos:<\/strong> \u00a0http:\/\/www.wolfram.com\/broadcast\/c?c=89<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

(Start with the Hands On Start to Mathematica<\/em> series–I recommend that you open a notebook and do every step they show in the video.)<\/span><\/strong><\/h6>\n

 <\/p>\n

Here are some homebrew tutorials in the form of Mathematica Notebooks to get you started (there may be some repetition):<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mathematica Tutorial ONE<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Mathematica Tutorial TWO<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Mathematica Tutorial THREE<\/a> <\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Mathematica Tutorial FOUR<\/a> <\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Mathematica Tutorial FIVE<\/a> <\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Currently the files below are all Mathematica Notebooks and pdf files for simple viewing.\u00a0 Click on the link to download.<\/span><\/strong><\/h6>\n

 <\/p>\n

Student Versions present Questions and Tasks (without solutions & code).\u00a0 Often, some hints and tutorial materials are included.<\/span><\/strong><\/h6>\n
