Hi all,
I would like to know if it is possible to make a "movie" of the
propagation of a wave obeying a differential equation through time.
For example: Given an initial condtion f[x] = x^2 on some interval,
I would like to show how the wave propagates under the wave equation,
U_tt = c^2 * U_xx
Currently, I can make plots of the solution u(x,t) at varying times
to show how the wave behaves, but it would be nice to make a movie
of it.
Is this possible? Thanks!
Pete
