Inhaltsangabe
This book gives an introduction to analog computer programming. The first chapters contain a short historic overview and describe the typical computing elements of an analog computer. The following sections detail the programming process including time and variable scaling. The main part of the book contains a collection of useful computer setups that can be used as "subroutines" in own programs, followed by a plethora of examples ranging from simple ones such as a harmonic oscillator to complex problems like the simulation of airflow over an airfoil. The appendix contains a short introduction in Mikusinski's operational calculus as well as two useful circuits (an oscilloscope multiplexer and a logarithm function generator).
