Singular Perturbation Theoryby Robin Johnson
Springer 2005; US$ 159.00The theory of singular perturbations has evolved as a response to the need to find approximate solutions (in an analytical form) to complex problems. Typically, such problems are expressed in terms of differential equations which contain at least one small parameter, and they can arise in many fields: fluid mechanics, particle physics, and combustion processes, to name but three. more...
Multiparameter Stability Theory With Mechanical Applicationsby A. P. Seyranian; A. A. Mailybaev
World Scientific 2003; US$ 111.80This book deals with fundamental problems, concepts, and methods of multiparameter stability theory with applications in mechanics. It presents recent achievements and knowledge of bifurcation theory, sensitivity analysis of stability characteristics, general aspects of nonconservative stability problems, analysis of singularities of boundaries for the stability domains, stability analysis of multiparameter linear periodic systems, and optimization of structures under stability constraints. more...
Linear Discrete Parabolic Problemsby Nikolai Bakaev
Elsevier 2006; US$ 165.00This volume introduces a unified, self-contained study of linear discrete parabolic problems through reducing the starting discrete problem to the Cauchy problem for an evolution equation in discrete time. Accessible to beginning graduate students, the book contains a general stability theory of discrete evolution equations in Banach space and gives applications of this theory to the analysis of various classes of modern discretization methods, among others, Runge-Kutta and linear multistep methods as well as operator splitting methods. Key features: * Presents a unified approach to examining discretization methods for parabolic equations. * Highlights a stability theory of discrete evolution equations (discrete semigroups) in Banach space.... more...
Weak Linksby Peter Csermely
Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG 2006; US$ 69.95Why do women stabilize our societies? Why can we enjoy and understand Shakespeare? Why is Mona Lisa's smile beautiful? Is there any answer to these questions? The author (recipient of several science communication prizes) uses weak (low affinity, probability) interactions as a thread to introduce a variety of networks from proteins to ecosystems. more...
Perturbation Theory for Matrix Equationsby M. Konstantinov; D. Wei Gu; V. Mehrmann; P. Petkov
Elsevier 2003; US$ 210.00The book is devoted to the perturbation analysis of matrix equations. The importance of perturbation analysis is that it gives a way to estimate the influence of measurement and/or parametric errors in mathematical models together with the rounding errors done in the computational process. The perturbation bounds may further be incorporated in accuracy estimates for the solution computed in finite arithmetic. This is necessary for the development of reliable computational methods, algorithms and software from the viewpoint of modern numerical analysis. In this book a general perturbation theory for matrix algebraic equations is presented. Local and non-local perturbation bounds are derived for general types of matrix equations as well... more...
Stability of Dynamical Systemsby Xiaoxin Liao; L.Q. Wang; P. Yu
Elsevier 2007; US$ 170.00The main purpose of developing stability theory is to examine dynamic responses of a system to disturbances as the time approaches infinity. It has been and still is the object of intense investigations due to its intrinsic interest and its relevance to all practical systems in engineering, finance, natural science and social science. This monograph provides some state-of-the-art expositions of major advances in fundamental stability theories and methods for dynamic systems of ODE and DDE types and in limit cycle, normal form and Hopf bifurcation control of nonlinear dynamic systems. ˇ Presents comprehensive theory and methodology of stability analysis ˇ Can be used as textbook for graduate students in applied mathematics, mechanics, control... more...
