Methods and Applications of Singular Perturbations: Boundary Layers and Multiple Timescale Dynamics

by Ferdinand Verhulst

Book Overview

Perturbation theory is a fascinating and fundamental topic in mathematics and its applications to the natural and engineering sciences. In this workbook, each explicit example is studied and methods introduced, beginning without proof, a learning method very suitable for singular perturbation problems. The text includes an extensive discussion of timescales and apriori knowledge of the presence of certain timescales. This comprehensive introduction...
