Ordinary Differential Equations : Example-driven, Including Maple Code

This introductory text combines models from physics and biology with rigorous reasoning in describing the theory of ordinary differential equations along with applications and computer simulations with Maple. Offering a concise course in the theory of ordinary differential equations, it also enables the reader to enter the field of computer simulations. Thus, it is a valuable read for students in mathematics as well as in physics and engineering. It is also addressed to all those interested in mathematical modeling with ordinary differential equations and systems.
