Electronic theses: the turning point

Purpose: To describe the key findings of the UK JISC-funded Electronic Theses project that was led by The Robert Gordon University, as well as the results of associated projects that formed part of the JISCfunded ‘FAIR’ Programme, and the way in which the recommendations will be taken forward. Design/methodology/approach: The research involved: an assessment of existing best practice relating t...

The numerical values of the nodal points for the Sturm-Liouville equation with one turning point

An inverse nodal problem has first been studied for the Sturm-Liouville equation with one turning point. The asymptotic representation of the corresponding eigenfunctions of the eigenvalues has been investigated and an asymptotic of the nodal points is obtained. For this problem, we give a reconstruction formula for the potential function. Furthermore, numerical examples have been established a...
