Asymptotic Solutions of Strongly Nonlinear Systems of Differential Equations

Download or read book Asymptotic Solutions of Strongly Nonlinear Systems of Differential Equations written by Valery V. Kozlov and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-01-13 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is dedicated to the construction of particular solutions of systems of ordinary differential equations in the form of series that are analogous to those used in Lyapunov’s first method. A prominent place is given to asymptotic solutions that tend to an equilibrium position, especially in the strongly nonlinear case, where the existence of such solutions can’t be inferred on the basis of the first approximation alone. The book is illustrated with a large number of concrete examples of systems in which the presence of a particular solution of a certain class is related to special properties of the system’s dynamic behavior. It is a book for students and specialists who work with dynamical systems in the fields of mechanics, mathematics, and theoretical physics.
