Abstract

The teaching and comprehension of engineering theorems and principles are often challenging due to their abstract and mathematical nature. To address this, we have developed an interactive MATLAB-based application designed to visualize complex engineering theorems, providing students with a more intuitive understanding. This application allows students to interact with the theorems by visualizing formulas, adjusting parameters, and observing the effects. A survey conducted among students at Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University (XJTLU) indicated that 90% found the app significantly beneficial to their learning process. This paper outlines the development, implementation, and evaluation of this educational tool.
