On the Development and Use of Differential Analyzers
نویسنده
چکیده
In this essay, we present the development of an important analogue calculating device, the differential analyzer. Section 1 introduces the main purpose that this type of machine was built for, namely the solution of differential equations and, in this context, the integration of a function. Section 2 summarizes the most important milestones regarding the development of mechanical differential analyzers. Section 3 deals with some typical applications. Section 4 concludes with some improvements of the differential analyzer that were achieved by replacing mechanical parts with electrical ones. Furthermore, a short comparison of the differential analyzer with the present-day technology is done.
