Analysis of Runge-Kutta methods using Butcher tableaus
No full textThis Bachelor thesis provides an analysis of Runge-Kutta methods using Butcher tableaus. Runge-Kutta method are numerical methods used for approximating initial value problems. A Runge-Kutta method can be classified as either an explicit or an implicit method. A special kind of implicit methods are diagonally implicit methods. The type of method can be recognised by the Butcher tableau. Using the entries of the Butcher tableau, one can compute the amplification factor of a Runge-Kutta method. The amplification factor can then be used to compute the order of the local truncation error and the stability region. Examples of these computations are given for seven methods. Furthermore, this thesis provides an algorithm to perform time steps for each of the three types of Runge-Kutta methods. Finally, in order to analyse the global truncation error of the seven methods, the algorithm to perform time steps is used with different step sizes.Applied Mathematic
[Review of] Philip Butcher, ed. The Ethnic Image in Modern American Literature 1900-1950, Vols. I and II
No full textAmerican literary scholarship in the mid-1980s generally seems to be insufficiently sophisticated to give more than perfunctory attention to ethnicity\u27s significant role in American writing from the colonial period to the present. When intellectual maturation finally is achieved, as there is reason to believe it will be even though progress proceeds at a disappointing snail\u27s pace, credit for the event will be due in part to Philip Butcher\u27s unique and impressive The Ethnic Image in Modern American Literature: 1900-1950, as well as to his earlier two-volume anthology, The Minority Presence in American Literature: 1600-1900 (1977). These are essential books for all libraries

[Review of] Philip Butcher, ed. The Minority Presence in American Literature: 1600-1900, Vols. I and II
No full textThe Minority Presence in American Literature: 1600-1900, volumes I and II, is the first publication of the Morgan State University Series in Afroamerican Studies. The series is intended to provide a basis for examining the cultural, religious and social experiences of Afroamericans. Each title in the series is intended to serve as a guide, outline, or syllabus for college courses in Afroamerican studies, American ethnic studies, history and culture, American literature, and American studies. In keeping with these aims, Philip Butcher has compiled two anthologies of major and minor American writings that can be used as readers and course guides. The selections explore the experiences of Native Americans, Afroamericans, European and Chinese immigrants in the New World between the seventeenth and early twentieth centuries
Harvey Butcher : a passion for astronomical instrumentation
No full textAbstract: This paper covers some aspects of the scientific life of Harvey Butcher who was the Director of the Research School for Astronomy and Astrophysics at the Australian National University in Canberra from September 2007 to January 2013. He has made significant contributions to research on the evolution of galaxies, nucleo-synthesis, and on the design and implementation of advanced astronomical instrumentation including LOFAR (Low Frequency Array Radio telescope). He is well known for his discovery of the Butcher-Oemler effect. Before coming to Australia he was the Director of the Netherlands Foundation for Research in Astronomy from September 1991 to January 2007. In 2005 he was awarded a Knighthood in the Order of the Netherlands Lion for contributions to interdisciplinary science, innovation and public outreach. This paper is based on an interview conducted by the author with Harvey Butcher for the National Project on Significant Australian Astronomers sponsored by the National Library of Australia. Except otherwise stated, all quotations used in this paper are from the Butcher interview which has been deposited in the Oral History Archives of the National Library
