Differential equations : a primer for scientists and engineers
Material type:
TextLanguage: English Series: Springer undergraduate texts in mathematics and technologyPublication details: Switzerland : Springer, 2013. Edition: 2nd edDescription: xvii, 297pISBN: 9783319843506Subject(s): Differential equationDDC classification: 517.9 Online resources: Table of contents Summary: Differential Equations for Scientists and Engineers is a book designed with students in mind. It attempts to take a concise, simple, and no-frills approach to differential equations. The approach used in this text is to give students extensive experience in main solution techniques with a lighter emphasis on the physical interpretation of the results. With a more manageable page count than comparable titles, and over 400 exercises that can be solved without a calculating device, this book emphasizes the understanding and practice of essential topics in a succinct fashion. At the end of each worked example, the author provides the Mathematica commands that can be used to check the results and where applicable, to generate graphical representations. It can be used independently by the average student, while those continuing with the subject will develop a fundamental framework with which to pursue more advanced material. This book is designed for undergraduate students with some basic knowledge of precalculus algebra and a first course in calculus.
