Handbook of Dynamical Systems: Towards Applications Vol 2 by Fiedler New,#

Handbook of Dynamical SystemsAuthor(s): B. Fiedler\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Elsevier Science & Technology, United States\nImprint: North-Holland\nISBN-13: 9780444501684, 978-0444501684\nSynopsis\nThis handbook is volume II in a series collecting mathematical state-of-the-art surveys in the field of dynamical systems. Much of this field has developed from interactions with other areas of science, and this volume shows how concepts of dynamical systems further the understanding of mathematical issues that arise in applications. Although modeling issues are addressed, the central theme is the mathematically rigorous investigation of the resulting differential equations and their dynamic behavior. However, the authors and editors have made an effort to ensure readability on a non-technical level for mathematicians from other fields and for other scientists and engineers. The eighteen surveys collected here do not aspire to encyclopedic completeness, but present selected para.
