Carlos A Smith, Scott W Campbell

A First Course in Differential Equations, Modeling, and Simulation

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This textbook provides a practical understanding of how to apply differential equations in modern engineering and science. Incorporating valuable suggestions from mathematicians and mathematics professors, the second edition features an expanded chapter on classical solutions of ordinary linear differential equations, a full chapter on response of first- and second-order systems, new end-of-chapter problems, new exercises that can be used as projects, answers to many of the end-of-chapter problems, and new examples of applications related to chemical reactions, environmental engineering, biomedical engineering, and biotechnology.

Autorenporträt

Scott W. Campbell has been on the faculty of the Department of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering at the University of South Florida, Tampa, USA, since 1986. He has authored or coauthored more than 60 technical peer-reviewed articles, mostly in the area of thermodynamics, and has received numerous teaching awards at the department, college, university, and state levels. Recently, Professor Campbell has been collaborating with mathematics faculty on application-based teaching of calculus and with College of Education faculty on the training of middle school science and math teachers. Carlos A. Smith is a professor emeritus of chemical engineering at the University of South Florida, Tampa, USA (USF). He has been on the faculty at USF for 43 years, serving in different capacities. Professor Smith has lectured in Europe and many countries in Latin America. He is the coauthor of three editions of a textbook on process control and the author of another book on the same subject. The books have been translated into Spanish and Portuguese.
