Numerical Solution of Ordinary Differential Equations: for Classical, Relativistic and Nano Systems |
| Donald Greenspan (Univ. of Texas, USA) |
| An up-to-date survey on numerical solutions with intuitive presentation of computer algorithms. Ordinary differential equations (ODE) play a significant role in mathematics, physics and engineering sciences, and thus are part of relevant college and university courses.
Many problems, however, both traditional and modern, do not possess exact solutions, and must be treated numerically. Usually this is done with software packages, but for this to be efficient requires a sound understanding of the mathematics involved. This work meets the need for an affordable textbook that helps in understanding numerical solutions of ODE. Carefully structured by an experienced textbook author, it provides a survey of ODE for various applications, both classical and modern, including such special applications as relativistic systems. The examples are carefully explained and compiled into an algorithm, each of which is presented independent of a specific programming language, while each chapter is rounded off with exercises.
