The textbook presents a rather unique combination of topics in ODEs, examples and presentation style. The primary intended audience is undergraduate (2nd, 3rd, or 4th year) students in engineering and science (physics, biology, economics). The needed pre-requisite is a mastery of single-variable calculus. A wealth of included topics allows using the textbook in up to three sequential, one-semester ODE courses. Presentation emphasizes the development of practical solution skills by including a very large number of in-text examples and end-of-section exercises. All in-text examples, be they of a mathematical nature or a real-world examples, are fully solved, and the solution logic and flow are explained. Even advanced topics are presented in the same undergraduate-friendly style as the rest of the textbook. Completely optional interactive laboratory-type software is included with the textbook.

Covers ODEs and PDEs—in One TextbookUntil now, a comprehensive textbook covering both ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and partial differential equations (PDEs) didn’t exist. Fulfilling this need, Ordinary and Partial Differential Equations provides a complete and accessible course on ODEs and PDEs using many examples and exercises as well as intuitive, easy-to-use software. Teaches the Key Topics in Differential Equations The text includes all the topics that form the core of a modern undergraduate or beginning graduate course in differential equations. It also discusses other optional but important topics such as integral equations, Fourier series, and special functions. Numerous carefully chosen examples offer practical guidance on the concepts and techniques. Guides Students through the Problem-Solving Process Requiring no user programming, the accompanying computer software allows students to fully investigate problems, thus enabling a deeper study into the role of boundary and initial conditions, the dependence of the solution on the parameters, the accuracy of the solution, the speed of a series convergence, and related questions. The ODE module compares students’ analytical solutions to the results of computations while the PDE module demonstrates the sequence of all necessary analytical solution steps.

Uchebnoe posobie vkljuchaet vse razdely, izuchaemye v standartnykh kursakh differentsialnykh uravnenij. Pomimo etogo, ono soderzhit glavy po integralnym uravnenijam, spetsialnym funktsijam, variatsionnomu ischisleniju. Kniga soderzhit mnozhestvo illjustrativnykh primerov s detalnymi objasnenijami po kazhdoj iz zatragivaemykh tem. Bolshoe chislo zadach v kazhdoj glave pozvoljaet otkazatsja ot ispolzovanija sbornikov zadach. Posobie prednaznacheno dlja studentov napravlenij podgotovki, vkhodjaschikh v UGS: "Matematika i mekhanika", "Fizika i astronomija", "Elektronika, radiotekhnika i sistemy svjazi", "Fotonika, priborostroenie, opticheskie i biotekhnicheskie sistemy i tekhnologii", "Elektro- i teplotekhnika", "Mashinostroenie", "Fiziko-tekhnicheskie nauki i tekhnologii", "Tekhnologii materialov".
