  1. Spline Interpolation Method Major: All Engineering Majors Authors: Autar Kaw, Jai Paul http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu Transforming Numerical Methods Education for STEM Undergraduates http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu

  2. Spline Method of Interpolationhttp://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu

  3. What is Interpolation ? Given (x0,y0), (x1,y1), …… (xn,yn), find the value of ‘y’ at a value of ‘x’ that is not given. http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu

  4. Interpolants Polynomials are the most common choice of interpolants because they are easy to: • Evaluate • Differentiate, and • Integrate. http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu

  5. Why Splines ? http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu

  6. Why Splines ? Figure : Higher order polynomial interpolation is a bad idea http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu

  7. Linear Interpolation http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu

  8. Linear Interpolation (contd) http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu

  9. Example The upward velocity of a rocket is given as a function of time in Table 1. Find the velocity at t=16 seconds using linear splines. Table Velocity as a function of time Figure. Velocity vs. time data for the rocket example http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu

  15. Quadratic Splines (contd) http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu

  16. Quadratic Spline Example The upward velocity of a rocket is given as a function of time. Using quadratic splines Find the velocity at t=16 seconds Find the acceleration at t=16 seconds Find the distance covered between t=11 and t=16 seconds Table Velocity as a function of time Figure. Velocity vs. time data for the rocket example http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu

  17. Solution Let us set up the equations http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu

  18. Each Spline Goes Through Two Consecutive Data Points http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu
