These are my SF Lab reports. Use them as a reference if you will (sometimes I explain things which aren't in the lab books and which took me hours to find) but please don't plagiarise any data (as it is not guaranteed to be correct). All of these reports were written in LaTeX, which you should get, and most were graphed in GnuPlot, which you should also get.
Pendulum (Computational)- I put more effort into this report than maybe any other, including putting off real study to write a program for a bifurcation diagram, which you can find below:
Bifurcation Diagram- It was either sleep or do this.
Craters on the Moon- "We're whalers on the mooon, We carry a harpoon, But there ain't no whales, so we tell tall tales, and sing our whaling tune" But seriously, simple experiment, no issues, do it.
Ramsauer - Townsend- Wham! Bam! POW! Quantum! Apparently the experiment itself is quite easy, though I was being interviewed so I didn't do any of it. It was done in less than an hour. Quite difficult theory unless you have done the quantum course. "That's strange - but it works!"
Minimisation (Computational)- Easy experiment as the code is basically all written for you. Pretty lazy lab report though. TP's should definitely have time to do the last bit, which is well worthwhile.
Logic gates- I reckon you could get away without actually doing any of this experiment, and just writing in the expected results. (Please do not actually do this).
Polarisation of Light- First experiment, first attempt at LaTeX. Optics experiments are terrible though. Don't let anyone touch the table. Also, the polariser is not quite vertical or something. Ask the lab guys.
Fourier Analysis- Managed to steer my interview on this to music production, and why Fender guitars hum but Ibanez don't. Easy experiment, if you skip that part that doesn't work at all.
RC Filters- As usual, my theory section is quite poor, but to be honest I don't think they ever really read it, you just need to know it well for the interview. OK experiment, setup a little tricky (something to do with grounding wires, I dunno, I despise circuits). Some slightly involved mathematics in analysing the integrating and differentiating circuits, but nothing too difficult.
