Differential equations: Solving the oscillation system

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to perform modeling and simulation to solve differential equations in cases of physical phenomena. The physical system studied is simple harmonic motion. The method used is the method of problem solving using computer software. The simulation uses the Matlab program by applying the Euler method. The result obtained is to distinguish the oscillator graph without any external forces with any forces. This solution helps students solve problems using computer software in giving physical meaning. Therefore, students must be trained and guided to have the ability to think to make it easier to solve problems with the help of computers.
