Differential Equations: With Boundary Value Problems. This item is unavailable.Differential Equations: With Boundary Value Problems

Combining traditional material with a modern systems approach, this handbook provides a thorough introduction to differential equations, tempering its classic "pure math" approach with more practical applied aspects. Features up-to-date coverage of key topics such as first order equations, matrix algebra, systems, and phase plane portraits. Illustrates complex concepts through extensive detailed figures. Focuses on interpreting and solving problems through optional technology projects. For anyone interested in learning more about differential equations.

This text strikes a balance between the traditional and the modern. It covers all of the traditional material and more. It offers flexibility of use that will allow faculty at a variety of institutions to use the text. Includes a large number of graphics that display the ideas in ODEs; modeling and applications; and projects, which provide students with the opportunity to bring together much of what they have learned, including analytical, computational, and interpretative skills. Ideal for readers interested in learning about differential equations.
