Book Description

This text has been written in clear and accurate language that students can read and comprehend. The author has minimized the number of explicitly state theorems and definitions, in favor of dealing with concepts in a more conversational manner. This is illustrated by over 250 worked out examples. The problems are extremely high quality and are regarded as one of the text's many strengths.

This book also allows the instructor to select the level of technology desired. Trench has simplified this by using the symbols C and L. C exercises call for computation and/or graphics, and L exercises are laboratory exercises that require extensive use of technology. Several sections include informal advice on the use of technology. The instructor who prefers not to emphasize technology can ignore these exercises.

• Elementary Differential Equations with Boundary Value Problems

  Written in a clear and accurate language that students can understand, this book minimizes the number of explicitly stated theorems and definitions, includes a thorough treatment of boundary-value problems and partial differential equations.

• A Friendly Introduction to Differential Equations (M. Kaabar)

  Very useful for college students who studied Calculus II, and other students who want to review some concepts of differential equations before studying courses such as partial differential equations, applied mathematics, and electric circuits II.

• Evolutionary Equations: Picard's Theorem for PDEs, and Apps

  This open access book provides a solution theory for time-dependent partial differential equations, the approach is elementary in the sense that only Hilbert space methods and some basic theory of complex analysis are required.

• Solving Ordinary Differential Equations in Python (Joakim Sundnes)

  This open access book explains the foundations of modern solvers for ordinary differential equations (ODEs). Explicit and implicit methods are motivated and explained, and all the solvers are implemented as a class hierarchy in Python.

• Scaling of Differential Equationsn (Hans Langtangen, et al.)

  Scaling is a classical topic in applied mathematics, but here strongly connected to numerical simulations. The book contains a wide range of examples, of differing complexity, from many different scientific fields.

• Notes on Diffy Qs: Differential Equations for Engineers (Jiri Lebl)

  An introductory course on differential equations aimed at engineers. The book covers first order ODEs, higher order linear ODEs, systems of ODEs, Fourier series and PDEs, eigenvalue problems, the Laplace transform, and power series methods.

• Finite Difference Computing with PDEs: A Software Approach

  This easy-to-read book introduces the basics of solving partial differential equations by means of finite difference methods. Unlike many of the traditional academic works on the topic, this book was written for practitioners.

• Finite Difference Methods for Differential Equations

  This book introduces Finite Difference Methods for differential equations and discusses the similarities and differences between algorithm design and stability analysis for different types of equations.

• Solving PDEs in Python: The FEniCS Tutorial I (H. Langtangen)

  This book offers a concise and gentle introduction to finite element programming in Python based on the popular FEniCS software library. Using a series of examples, it guides readers through the essential steps to quickly solving a PDE in FEniCS.
