From Calculus to Chaos: An Introduction to Dynamics

From Calculus to Chaos: An Introduction to Dynamics

by D. J. Acheson

What is calculus really for? This book is a highly readable introduction to the applications of calculus, from Newton's time to the present day. From Calculus to Chaos takes a fresh approach to the subject as a whole, by moving from first steps to the frontiers, and by focusing on the many important and interesting ideas which can get lost amid a snowstorm of detail in conventional texts.

Dynamics of Physical Systems

by Robert H. Cannon

Comprehensive text and reference covers modeling of physical systems in several media, derivation of differential equations of motion and related physical behavior, dynamic stability and natural behavior, response to continuing and abrupt forcing inputs, and analysis and synthesis of feedback control systems. 334 figures. 12 tables. 1967 edition.
