<p>Differential Equations for Scientists and Engineers proposes to give a comprehensive treatment of differential equations encountered by scientists and engineers in various problems during their professional career. The book mainly deals with linear equations amenable to the so called analytical or exact solutions (including series solutions). However, exactly solvable nonlinear equations are covered briefly in the chapter on ordinary differential equations. A couple of chapters are included to deal with semi-analytical techniques, such as variational and other methods to deal with equations not solvable analytically. A chapter on nonlinear equations with modern treatment of first and second order systems including the concepts of bifurcations and limit cycles is included at the end. More advanced topics such as, the quasi-periodic motion and chaos are not included in the book. Throughout the book the emphasis is on the development and applications of solution techniques and the theoretical aspects regarding the existence and uniqueness of solutions are avoided or very briefly discussed with short proofs without disturbing the flow of the text.</p>

<p>The present book dealing with analytical and semi-analytical methods in engineering and sciences is an attempt to lay foundation for developing efficient computational methods. It draws upon the results and methods of mathematical physics and systematically develops the solution methods for ordinary and partial differential equations encountered in different engineering disciplines and sciences. The treatment is confined to linear equations for the most part, except for some nonlinear problems considered in the chapters on approximate methods. Throughout the book a large number of solved examples are given to show the application of the methods development. These are supplemented with a number of exercises at the end of each chapter.</p>
