I wanted to know how to create plots like these in MATLAB. I belive they were called herpolhode plots.
Suppose your CFD code can handle nonelementary blocks. Combine as many blocks of Fig. as you can. The only restriction is that in any one block, the number of i-intervals and the number of j-intervals must be constants. Show that you can create a structured grid with only three nonelementary blocks. Renumber all the blocks and indicate how many i- and j-intervals are contained in each block. Add up all the cells and verify that the total number of cells does not change.
I wanted to create two spheres that overlap each other in MATLAB. The image has my code and results. I only see one sphere in the results. Why is that? Can you give me the code that will create two overlaying spheres in one plot?

I tried making my own function and using the MATLAB function, but the result is matrices that are not equal to each other. But, if I were to use the 'ZYX' sequence, I would get a matrix that is equal to the transpose of the matrix produced by my function.I mean that transpose(EA123toDCM) = E123toDCM if I changed the sequence to 'ZYX'. I never got two equal matrices. Can you fix my code so I would get two equal DCM matrices for the body 1-2-3 sequence? Also, for the E123toDCM line, I am using the sequence 'XYZ'. Is that correct or should it be 'ZYX'? I know that that for a DCM of sequence 1-2-3 = R3(theta1)*R2(theta2)*R1(theta3). Is ZYX sequence the same as a 1-2-3 sequence?

Using cadavers, it is possible to determine the mass of individual body segments (as a proportion of total body mass) and the center of mass for each segment (often expressed as a distance from one end of the segment). Finding the overall body center of mass can be a complex calculation, involving more than 10 body segments. Below, we will look at a simplified model that uses just six segments: head, trunk, two arms, and two legs. Search y X As a percentage of total body mass, the head is 10%, the two arms are 10%, the trunk is 56%, and the two legs are 24%. The center of mass for each segment is given as an (x,y) coordinate, both units in cm: head = (0, 165), arms = (0, 115), trunk = (0, 95), and legs = (0, 35). Assume the body mass for the individual is 88 kg and their total height is 180 cm. Determine they and y coord 99+ H of massarrow_forward

There is a mass attached to a spring which is fixed against a wall. The spring is compressed and then released. Friction and is neglected. The velocity and displacement of the mass need to be modeled with an equation or set of equations so that various masses and spring constants can be input into Matlab and their motion can be observed. Motion after being released is only important, the spring being compressed is not important. This could be solved with dynamics, Matlab, there are multiple approaches.arrow_forwardFor the following concentration expressions, indicate whether they are uniform or nonuniform and in how many dimensions (OD, 1D, 2D, or 3D), and steady or unsteady.

This algorithm works by spending O(1) time splitting the problem in half, then does a recursive call on each half, then spends O(n2 ) time combining the solutions to the recursive calls. On small inputs, the algorithm takes a constant amount of time. We want to see how long this algorithm takes, in terms of n to perform the task. (a) First, write a recurrence relation that corresponds to the time-complexity of the above divide and conquer algorithm. (b) Then, solve the relation to come with the worst-case time taken for the algorithm. Please show all work in depth.arrow_forward
