More DescriptionWhile many standard texts on differential equations emphasize theory, Applied Differential Equations for the Real World: An Applications-Based Approach explains how to actually create and solve differential equations for real-world situations using clear, concise language to make the concepts easily accessible to students.
The book begins with an explanation of basic applications. Subsequent chapters cover separable equations, first-order linear differential equations, and Bernoulli equations. Students also learn exact differential equations, second-order constant coefficient homogenous linear differential equations, non-homogenous differential equations, and methods for non-constant coefficient differential equations, each with specific real-world applications. Each chapter includes definitions of key terms, which are highlighted in the text, and frequent problem sets after the introduction of each new concept.
With its practical, applications-based approach, Applied Differential Equations for the Real World is well suited to introductory courses in the discipline, particularly those for students of mathematics and engineering.
