Differential Equations and Boundary Value Problems: Computing and Modeling by David E. Penney, David Calvis C. Henry Edwards

by Charles Henry Edwards

For one-semester sophomore- or junior-level courses in Differential Equations. Fosters the conceptual development and geometric visualization students need - now available with MyLab Math Differential Equations and Boundary Value Computing and Modeling blends traditional algebra problem-solving skills with the conceptual development and geometric visualization of a modern differential equations course that is essential to science and engineering students. It balances traditional manual methods with the new, computer-based methods that illuminate qualitative phenomena--a comprehensive approach that makes accessible a wider range of more realistic applications. The book starts and ends with discussions of mathematical modeling of real-world phenomena, evident in figures, examples, problems, and applications throughout. For the first time, MyLab(TM) Math is available for the 5th Edition, providing online homework with immediate feedback, the complete eText, and more. Additionally, new presentation slides created by author David Calvis are now live in MyLab Math, available in Beamer (LaTeX) and PDF formats. The slides are ideal for both classroom lectures and student review, and combined with Calvis' superlative videos offer a level of support not found in any other Differential Equations course. Also available with MyLab Math MyLab(TM) Math is the teaching and learning platform that empowers instructors to reach every student. By combining trusted author content with digital tools and a flexible platform, MyLab Math personalizes the learning experience and improves results for each student.

stopped updating but i read all the sections on the syllabus! not a fun class maybe cool if i was into physical engineering but a fella like me only cares about 1s and 0s (no i will not acknowledge circuit modeling). i cant wait to give this book to dave so he can tell me how freaking easy it is and how dumb i am. i love that kid im so excited to see him on friday😁 good book tho very thorough. apparently this book has family lore dr tran said hes been teaching from this book for like 20 sum years?? i can see why tho i like the modeling sections and how it teaches you how you use my favorite guilty pleasure language (matlab😋) to model the equations

As a math textbook it was pretty clear. I would have liked more examples and there were some concepts that I had to look up online to understand. But overall, made differential equations pretty doable.

Fallen way behind on the surge of textbooks I've been rereading over the last two weeks. I had the custom UIUC edition for this one, which was marred by missing sections. While the general examples and problems were pretty strong in the text, I found the applications sections to be a bit too unfocused (everything from statistics to biology to physics appeared) for learning. The overuse of boldfaced terms and the lack of too many boxed procedures or formulae made the book good to learn from, but not really useful as a reference later.

Used this as a textbook for a Differential Equations class at Washington University in St. Louis when I was an adjunct there.
