1. An Interactive Graphics Program for Assistance in Learning Convolution.

Author

American Society for Engineering Education, Washington, DC. Computers in Education Div., Frederick, Dean K., and Waag, Gary L.

Abstract

A program has been written for the interactive computer graphics facility at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute that is designed to assist the user in learning the mathematical technique of convolving two functions. Because convolution can be represented graphically by a sequence of steps involving folding, shifting, multiplying, and integration, it is a natural candidate for computer-aided instruction. The program can be run in one of two modes depending on the experience and the user's needs. Detailed instructions and explanations are given at each step of the process. The running of the program is illustrated with samples of the graphics display and the experience gained by use in classes to date is summarized. (Author/DS)

2. A Computer Graphics Approach to Relating Pole-Zero Plots and Time-Domain Responses.

Author

Frederick, Dean K. and Leong, Alan S.

Abstract

Describes a computer program which allows students to specify rather arbitrary sets of poles and zeros for the transfer function of a linear system. The computer evaluates/plots the systems impulse and step responses individually and displays them in reduced form along with the pole-zero plot. (JN)
