Solving Equations with Physical Understanding,

Download or read book Solving Equations with Physical Understanding, written by John Reginald Acton and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1985-08 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In creating mathematical models of real processes, scientists, engineers and students frequently encounter differential equations whose exact solutions are necessarily complicated and are normally solvable only by computer or through complex formal mathematics. This practical book demonstrates how approximate methods may be used to minimize these mathematical difficulties, giving the reader physical understanding both of the solution process and the final result. Intended for undergraduates and graduate students, teachers of physics, engineering and other applied sciences, professional and applied scientists and engineers.
