Synopsis
Emphasizing a practical approach for engineers and scientists,A First Course in Differential Equations, Modeling, and Simulationavoids overly theoretical explanations and shows readers how differential equations arise from applying basic physical principles and experimental observations to engineering systems. It also covers classical methods for obtaining the analytical solution of differential equations and Laplace transforms. In addition, the authors discuss how these equations describe mathematical systems and how to use software to solve sets of equations where analytical solutions cannot be obtained. Using simple physics, the book introduces dynamic modeling, the definition of differential equations, two simple methods for obtaining their analytical solution, and a method to follow when modeling. It then presents classical methods for solving differential equations, discusses the engineering importance of the roots of a characteristic equation, and describes the response of first- and second-order differential equations. A study of the Laplace transform method follows with explanations of the transfer function and the power of Laplace transform for obtaining the analytical solution of coupled differential equations. The next several chapters present the modeling of translational and rotational mechanical systems, fluid systems, thermal systems, and electrical systems. The final chapter explores many simulation examples using a typical software package for the solution of the models developed in previous chapters. Providing the necessary tools to apply differential equations in engineering and science, this text helps readers understand differential equations, their meaning, and their analytical and computer solutions. It illustrates how and where differential equations develop, how they describe engineering systems, how to obtain the analytical solution, and how to use software to simulate the systems., Emphasizing a practical approach for engineers and scientists, A First Course in Differential Equations, Modeling, and Simulation avoids overly theoretical explanations and shows readers how differential equations arise from applying basic physical principles and experimental observations to engineering systems.

    Item was received in very good condition; just as expected. The item came complete with paper jacket/cover. For a book published or printed in 1993/1995, this is in very good state of preservation. The seller was friendly in their communication and responded promptly to my messages. They were very helpful in providing me specific details about the book's publisher and edition which helped in determining if this is really what I am looking for. Shipping was also in time and reasonable.

    The Bible was exactly as described, virtually new and unused. It came packaged very well in multiple layers of packing material, and in a sturdy box. Couldn't be happier.

    I can't even believe I found this in such good condition, I read and adored this bible as a child over 50 years ago. I don't know what happened to my original so finding this was such a joy. I will read to my grandchildren (as they let me). All the tags are fulfilled; high quality, good price, good value and excellent appearance. Packaged very carefully and arrived fast. Trustworthy seller!!
