Differential Equations

"Differential Equations: An Introduction to Modern Methods and Applications" is a textbook designed for a first course in differential equations commonly taken by undergraduates majoring in engineering or science. It emphasizes a systems approach to the subject and integrates the use of modern computing technology in the context of contemporary applications from engineering and science. Section exercises throughout the text are designed to give students hands-on experience in modeling, analysis, and computer experimentation. Optional projects at the end of each chapter provide additional opportunities for students to explore the role played by differential equations in scientific and engineering problems of a more serious nature.
