A Course in Ordinary Differential Equations, Second Edition teaches students how to use analytical and numerical solution methods in typical engineering, physics, and mathematics applications. Lauded for its extensive computer code and student-friendly approach, the first edition of this popular textbook was the first on ordinary differential equations (ODEs) to include instructions on using MATLAB®, Mathematica®, and Maple¿. This second edition reflects the feedback of students and professors who used the first edition in the classroom. Thiis version adds two new chapters to the current text.

This second edition presents analytical and numerical solution methods for typical engineering, physics, and mathematics applications. It uses the latest versions of MATLAB®, Maple¿, and Mathematica® and moves the computer codes to Computer Labs at the end of each chapter. Along with new projects, exercises, and color graphs, this edition includes new sections on complex variables, the exponential response formula for solving nonhomogeneous equations, forced vibrations, and nondimensionalization. It also covers linear systems in their entirety before addressing applications to nonlinear systems.
