Von der hinteren Coverseite

Experience the power of mathematical modeling.

Borrelli and Coleman’s DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS: A MODELINGPERSPECTIVE focuses on differential equations as a powerful tool inconstructing mathematical models for the physical world.

Right from the start, the book provides a gentle introduction tomodeling in Chapter 1. This chapter gathers the elementaryprinciples of modeling in one place and uses simple examples. Fromthere, you’ll explore specific models and examine solutionsof the differential equations involved using an integratedanalytical, numerical, and qualitative approach.

Build and solve your own ODEs with the ultimate ODE powertool!

This edition includes a CD containing ODEArchitect–a prize-winning, state-of-the-art NSF-sponsoredlearning software package, which is Windows-compatible. A solvertool allows you to build your own models with ODEs and study themin a truly interactive point-and-click environment. TheArchitect includes an interactive library of over onehundred model differential systems with graphs of solutions. TheArchitect also has 14 interactive multimedia modules, whichprovide a range of models and phenomena, from a golf game tochaos.
