From the Publisher
2. COMPUTER USAGE The sections on numerical methods also contain some sample computer code to implement what the numerical methods may look like. Students are encouraged to utilize commercial software such as Mathematica or MAPLE, or programmable calculators to work these examples. Individual exercises that are best solved using technology are specially noted. In addition, students can download author-written software for numerical methods from the World Wide Web.
3. APPLICATIONS This text includes a variety of applications of differential equations to engineering and the physical sciences. Students can choose to study these applications in greater detail through the use of computers or calculators.
4. THOROUGH TOPIC COVERAGE Because of its emphasis on both traditional coverage and the study of dynamical systems and numerical methods, this text contains sections on several topics that are not found in most books at this level. Some of these topics include the shooting methods for boundary-value problems, vector treatment of planetary motion for many bodies, and PoincarT time-sections.
Flexible approach. Instructors have the opportunity to incorporate modern applications, topics, and methods within a traditional framework. This text contains sections of several topics that are not found in most books at this level, including the shooting methods for boundary-value problems, vector treatment of planetary motion for many bodies, and Poincare time-sections.
Integration of computer and numerical methods. Computer software such as MAPLE, DERIVE, and Mathematica, as well as programmable calculators, help students to study and think concretely about concepts that were once considered too abstract to be covered in an introductory course. Icons identify problems that are best solved with the help of a computer or calculator.
A variety of differential equations. Applicable to both engineering and the physical sciences, differential equations allow you to tailor assignments according to the needs of your students.
