Hello, I wanted to create some video files for my students (we're studying the wave equation, which begs for animation) and post them on the web where they can be easily watched. The easiest way to do this is to create videos in formats understand by browsers that implement the HTML5 <video> tag. (Basically anything reasonably recent does, except for IE8 and before -- which, sadly, is most of the browser market here.)
I wrote some notes on producing such videos and thought someone might find them useful: https://sagenb.kaist.ac.kr:8066/home/pub/41. Comments welcome. (BTW, here's the videos I made: http://klee.kaist.ac.kr/wave.webm http://klee.kaist.ac.kr/wave.mp4 The thick green plot is the shape of a plucked string, and the red and blue plots are the traveling waves you get with d'Alembert's solution to the wave equation.)
