Book Ordinary Differential Equations and Mechanical Systems

Download or read book Ordinary Differential Equations and Mechanical Systems written by Jan Awrejcewicz and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-09-17 with total page 621 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book applies a step-by-step treatment of the current state-of-the-art of ordinary differential equations used in modeling of engineering systems/processes and beyond. It covers systematically ordered problems, beginning with first and second order ODEs, linear and higher-order ODEs of polynomial form, theory and criteria of similarity, modeling approaches, phase plane and phase space concepts, stability optimization and ending on chaos and synchronization. Presenting both an overview of the theory of the introductory differential equations in the context of applicability and a systematic treatment of modeling of numerous engineering and physical problems through linear and non-linear ODEs, the volume is self-contained, yet serves both scientific and engineering interests. The presentation relies on a general treatment, analytical and numerical methods, concrete examples and engineering intuition. The scientific background used is well balanced between elementary and advanced level, making it as a unique self-contained source for both theoretically and application oriented graduate and doctoral students, university teachers, researchers and engineers of mechanical, civil and mechatronic engineering.

Book Encyclopedia of Systems Biology

Download or read book Encyclopedia of Systems Biology written by Werner Dubitzky and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-06-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Systems biology refers to the quantitative analysis of the dynamic interactions among several components of a biological system and aims to understand the behavior of the system as a whole. Systems biology involves the development and application of systems theory concepts for the study of complex biological systems through iteration over mathematical modeling, computational simulation and biological experimentation. Systems biology could be viewed as a tool to increase our understanding of biological systems, to develop more directed experiments, and to allow accurate predictions. The Encyclopedia of Systems Biology is conceived as a comprehensive reference work covering all aspects of systems biology, in particular the investigation of living matter involving a tight coupling of biological experimentation, mathematical modeling and computational analysis and simulation. The main goal of the Encyclopedia is to provide a complete reference of established knowledge in systems biology – a ‘one-stop shop’ for someone seeking information on key concepts of systems biology. As a result, the Encyclopedia comprises a broad range of topics relevant in the context of systems biology. The audience targeted by the Encyclopedia includes researchers, developers, teachers, students and practitioners who are interested or working in the field of systems biology. Keeping in mind the varying needs of the potential readership, we have structured and presented the content in a way that is accessible to readers from wide range of backgrounds. In contrast to encyclopedic online resources, which often rely on the general public to author their content, a key consideration in the development of the Encyclopedia of Systems Biology was to have subject matter experts define the concepts and subjects of systems biology.

Book A Practical Course in Differential Equations and Mathematical Modelling

Download or read book A Practical Course in Differential Equations and Mathematical Modelling written by Nail H. Ibragimov and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2009 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Practical Course in Differential Equations and Mathematical Modelling is a unique blend of the traditional methods of ordinary and partial differential equations with Lie group analysis enriched by the author?s own theoretical developments. The book ? which aims to present new mathematical curricula based on symmetry and invariance principles ? is tailored to develop analytic skills and ?working knowledge? in both classical and Lie?s methods for solving linear and nonlinear equations. This approach helps to make courses in differential equations, mathematical modelling, distributions and fundamental solution, etc. easy to follow and interesting for students. The book is based on the author?s extensive teaching experience at Novosibirsk and Moscow universities in Russia, CollŠge de France, Georgia Tech and Stanford University in the United States, universities in South Africa, Cyprus, Turkey, and Blekinge Institute of Technology (BTH) in Sweden. The new curriculum prepares students for solving modern nonlinear problems and will essentially be more appealing to students compared to the traditional way of teaching mathematics.

Book Applied Analysis of Ordinary Differential Equations

Download or read book Applied Analysis of Ordinary Differential Equations written by Sanjeeva Balasuriya and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2019-11-14 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One might say that ordinary differential equations (notably, in Isaac Newton’s analysis of the motion of celestial bodies) had a central role in the development of modern applied mathematics. This book is devoted to research articles which build upon this spirit: combining analysis with the applications of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). ODEs arise across a spectrum of applications in physics, engineering, geophysics, biology, chemistry, economics, etc., because the rules governing the time-variation of relevant fields is often naturally expressed in terms of relationships between rates of change. ODEs also emerge in stochastic models—for example, when considering the evolution of a probability density function—and in large networks of interconnected agents. The increasing ease of numerically simulating large systems of ODEs has resulted in a plethora of publications in this area; nevertheless, the difficulty of parametrizing models means that the computational results by themselves are sometimes questionable. Therefore, analysis cannot be ignored. This book comprises articles that possess both interesting applications and the mathematical analysis driven by such applications.

Book Scaling of Differential Equations

Download or read book Scaling of Differential Equations written by Hans Petter Langtangen and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-06-15 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book serves both as a reference for various scaled models with corresponding dimensionless numbers, and as a resource for learning the art of scaling. A special feature of the book is the emphasis on how to create software for scaled models, based on existing software for unscaled models. Scaling (or non-dimensionalization) is a mathematical technique that greatly simplifies the setting of input parameters in numerical simulations. Moreover, scaling enhances the understanding of how different physical processes interact in a differential equation model. Compared to the existing literature, where the topic of scaling is frequently encountered, but very often in only a brief and shallow setting, the present book gives much more thorough explanations of how to reason about finding the right scales. This process is highly problem dependent, and therefore the book features a lot of worked examples, from very simple ODEs to systems of PDEs, especially from fluid mechanics. The text is easily accessible and example-driven. The first part on ODEs fits even a lower undergraduate level, while the most advanced multiphysics fluid mechanics examples target the graduate level. The scientific literature is full of scaled models, but in most of the cases, the scales are just stated without thorough mathematical reasoning. This book explains how the scales are found mathematically. This book will be a valuable read for anyone doing numerical simulations based on ordinary or partial differential equations.

Book Partial Differential Equations in Action

Download or read book Partial Differential Equations in Action written by Sandro Salsa and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-04-24 with total page 701 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is intended as an advanced undergraduate or first-year graduate course for students from various disciplines, including applied mathematics, physics and engineering. It has evolved from courses offered on partial differential equations (PDEs) over the last several years at the Politecnico di Milano. These courses had a twofold purpose: on the one hand, to teach students to appreciate the interplay between theory and modeling in problems arising in the applied sciences, and on the other to provide them with a solid theoretical background in numerical methods, such as finite elements. Accordingly, this textbook is divided into two parts. The first part, chapters 2 to 5, is more elementary in nature and focuses on developing and studying basic problems from the macro-areas of diffusion, propagation and transport, waves and vibrations. In turn the second part, chapters 6 to 11, concentrates on the development of Hilbert spaces methods for the variational formulation and the analysis of (mainly) linear boundary and initial-boundary value problems.

Book Dynamic Data Analysis

Download or read book Dynamic Data Analysis written by James Ramsay and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-06-27 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text focuses on the use of smoothing methods for developing and estimating differential equations following recent developments in functional data analysis and building on techniques described in Ramsay and Silverman (2005) Functional Data Analysis. The central concept of a dynamical system as a buffer that translates sudden changes in input into smooth controlled output responses has led to applications of previously analyzed data, opening up entirely new opportunities for dynamical systems. The technical level has been kept low so that those with little or no exposure to differential equations as modeling objects can be brought into this data analysis landscape. There are already many texts on the mathematical properties of ordinary differential equations, or dynamic models, and there is a large literature distributed over many fields on models for real world processes consisting of differential equations. However, a researcher interested in fitting such a model to data, or a statistician interested in the properties of differential equations estimated from data will find rather less to work with. This book fills that gap.

Book Modelling with Differential Equations

Download or read book Modelling with Differential Equations written by David N. Burghes and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Motivated by the authors' combined ability and experience, this book is about the concepts of mathematical modelling with the use of differential equations, as a powerful technique of mathematical analysis. It is both enjoyable to read, and informative. The reader's mind is continually exercised by enlightenment, or recollection, or enquiry; either something new is to be learned, or something known is to be re-examined. It is with mathematical clarity that the authors explain the theory of ordinary differential equations and introduce their manifold applications. They show a skillful and imaginative succession of applications introducing such instances as accident risk or fish population; forgery detection in old masters or kidney life-support machines; and many others. They show the influence of these mathematical probes into problems occurring in biology, economics, geography, medicine, planning, psychology, or sociology.
