Zeros of Bessel functions
Determination of zeros of Bessel functions,
J0(xi)=0 and
J1(xi)=0, via
Modelica/GSL and via direct GSL functions to compare results.
Plots of zeroJ0.y and zeroJ1.y should display steps with
lower-right corners at ( t , y ) = ( xi,Modelica ,
xi,GSL ) and such values should be equal at these
corners.
The location of the zeros of Bessel functions is a crucial
element in some boundary value problems involving cylindrical
symmetry and this example shows how the 'Bessel_zeroJnu' block
(with nu=n; n integer) provides said info quickly.
As not all special functions' zeros are provided via GSL
routines, the displayed use of Modelica's zero-crossing logical
blocks could be useful for finding such information for these other
functions.
