Book DetailsProceedings of Symposia in Applied MathematicsVolume: 56; 1999; 187 ppMSC: Primary 34; 35
To understand multiscale phenomena, it is essential to employ asymptotic methods to construct approximate solutions and to design effective computational algorithms. This volume consists of articles based on the AMS Short Course in Singular Perturbations held at the annual Joint Mathematics Meetings in Baltimore (MD). Leading experts discussed the following topics which they expand upon in the book: boundary layer theory, matched expansions, multiple scales, geometric theory, computational techniques, and applications in physiology and dynamic metastability. Readers will find that this text offers an up-to-date survey of this important field with numerous references to the current literature, both pure and applied.
ReadershipAdvanced undergraduates, graduate students, and applied mathematicians interested in ordinary differential equations.
