Does anyone know if the Ritz method was actually pioneered by Walter Ritz, or was it simply named in honor of him? He died in 1909, so I am wondering how he could have developed such a method (from my understanding, the use of such methodology would require the Schrodinger equation and other techniques that were still 20 years off...) Any mathematical or physics historians have information on this? Nimur 18:29, 15 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
