Continuous System Simulation / Edition 1

by François E. Cellier, Ernesto Kofman

Overview

Highly computer-oriented text, introducing numerical methods and algorithms along with the applications and conceptual tools. Includes homework problems, suggestions for research projects, and open-ended questions at the end of each chapter. Written by our successful author who also wrote Continuous System Modeling, a best-selling Springer book first published in the 1991 (sold about 1500 copies).

Editorial Reviews

From the reviews:

"This is a graduate-level textbook, a sequel to continuous system modeling … . The text provides a plentiful number of exercises and projects at various levels of difficulty. Each chapter has a carefully selected list of references." (William J. Satzer jun, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1112 (8), 2007)
