Differential Equations and Boundary Value Problems : Computing and Modeling

This practical book reflects the new technological emphasis that permeates differential equations, including the wide availability of scientific computing environments likeMaple, Mathematica, and MATLAB; it does not concentrate on traditional manual methods but rather on new computer-based methods that lead to a wider range of more realistic applications. The book starts and ends with discussions of mathematical modeling of real-world phenomena, evident in figures, examples, problems, and applications throughout the book. For mathematicians and those in the field of computer science.
