#Homework 5 2.)

The LU decomposition is excuted by the functions lu_tridiag.m. The function solve_tridiag.m solves the x vector in the equation Ax = B The test_array.m function then creates the matrixs that will be decomposed.

3.)

The table below compares the error between the created code and AN\b

size of A	norm(error)
3	2.341457211866148746537419356
4	1.5089317413322578254053496494

The table below shows the values of lamda and omega

lamda	omega
40.5220	6.3657
14.4090	3.7959
2.5690	1.6028

#Curvature of Slender Columns ![This file shows the calculations for the Curvature.](Curvature of Slender Column.PNG)

The table below expresses the values produced in the column.

# of segments	smallest	largest	number of eigenvalues
5	0.382	3.618	4
6	0.385	5.374	5
10	0.39	15.6	9

If the segment length (dx) approaches 0, then it means that the number of segments continues to grow to infinity. Thus, the number of eigenvalues will also apporach infinity. This matches the trend of the values given above.
