Mass-Dampening-Stiffness Matrix EOM
No License
Program will take a description of a system containing masses and springs with proportional dampening and will output the mass[M], dampening[D] and stiffness[K] matrices for that system with respects to its system of equations as shown below.
M*d2x/dt^2+D*dx/dt+K*x=F
Program can handle both numeric and symbolic equations.
Sample script to run from my final in aerospace structures at University of Colorado
