Analog computer

An analog computer or analogue computer is a type of computation machine (computer) that uses the continuous variation aspect of physical phenomena such as electrical, mechanical, or hydraulic quantities (analog signals) to model the problem being solved. Mallock machine and analog computer are analog computers.

See Mallock machine and Analog computer

Differential analyser

The differential analyser is a mechanical analogue computer designed to solve differential equations by integration, using wheel-and-disc mechanisms to perform the integration. Mallock machine and differential analyser are analog computers.

Linear differential equation

In mathematics, a linear differential equation is a differential equation that is defined by a linear polynomial in the unknown function and its derivatives, that is an equation of the form a_0(x)y + a_1(x)y' + a_2(x)y \cdots + a_n(x)y^.
