Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Hyers-Ulam Stability of Ordinary Differential Equations

By: Arun Kumar Tripathy

Hyers-Ulam Stability of Ordinary Differential Equations undertakes an interdisciplinary, integrative overview of a kind of stability problem unlike the existing so called stability problem for Differential equations and Difference Equations. In 1940, S. M. Ulam posed the problem: When can we assert that approximate solution of a functional equation can be approximated by a solution of the corresponding equation before the audience at the University of Wisconsin which was first answered by D. H. Hyers on Banach space in 1941. Thereafter, T. Aoki, D. H. Bourgin and Th. M. Rassias improved the result of Hyers. After that many researchers have extended the Ulam's stability problems to other functional equations and generalized Hyer's result in various directions. Last three decades, this topic is very well known as Hyers-Ulam Stability or sometimes it is referred Hyers-Ulam-Rassias Stability. This book synthesizes interdisciplinary theory, definitions and examples of Ordinary Differential and Difference Equations dealing with stability problems. The purpose of this book is to display the new kind of stability problem to global audience and accessible to a broader interdisciplinary readership for e.g those are working in Mathematical Biology Modeling, bending beam problems of mechanical engineering also, some kind of models in population dynamics. This book may be a starting point for those associated in such research and covers the methods needed to explore the analysis. Features: The state-of-art is pure analysis with background functional analysis. A rich, unique synthesis of interdisciplinary findings and insights on resources. As we understand that the real world problem is heavily involved with Differential and Difference equations, the cited problems of this book may be useful in a greater sense as long as application point of view of this Hyers-Ulam Stability theory is concerned. Information presented in an accessible way for students, researchers, scientists and engineers.

This book maps the diverse identities of goddesses through metaphors of Grace, Rage and Knowledge, and offers an in-depth insight into femininity, sexual politics, ritual worship, religion, ecology and gender. The volume explores how these deity attributes are expressed and embedded through anthropomorphic as well as inorganic forms of nature: beautiful women, multi-legged and many-armed animals, epistemic selves, demonic beings, glamorous personifications and also grotesque sub-humans. The second edition contains an Epilogue which further explores how the discourses on Goddesses are moulded by the myth and folklore. It opens discussions on how the dynamism of Goddess cultures have been appropriated into contemporary variations of those archetypes over time. This book will be useful to scholars and researchers of religious studies, cultural studies, folklore, art, literature, sociology and gender studies, especially those interested in Nepal and Hinduism.

Principles of System Identification

Theory and Practice

By: Arun K. Tangirala

Master Techniques and Successfully Build Models Using a Single Resource Vital to all data-driven or measurement-based process operations, system identification is an interface that is based on observational science, and centers on developing mathematical models from observed data. Principles of System Identification: Theory and Practice is an introductory-level book that presents the basic foundations and underlying methods relevant to system identification. The overall scope of the book focuses on system identification with an emphasis on practice, and concentrates most specifically on discrete-time linear system identification. Useful for Both Theory and Practice The book presents the foundational pillars of identification, namely, the theory of discrete-time LTI systems, the basics of signal processing, the theory of random processes, and estimation theory. It explains the core theoretical concepts of building (linear) dynamic models from experimental data, as well as the experimental and practical aspects of identification. The author offers glimpses of modern developments in this area, and provides numerical and simulation-based examples, case studies, end-of-chapter problems, and other ample references to code for illustration and training. Comprising 26 chapters, and ideal for coursework and self-study, this extensive text: Provides the essential concepts of identification Lays down the foundations of mathematical descriptions of systems, random processes, and estimation in the context of identification Discusses the theory pertaining to non-parametric and parametric models for deterministic-plus-stochastic LTI systems in detail Demonstrates the concepts and methods of identification on different case-studies Presents a gradual development of state-space identification and grey-box modeling Offers an overview of advanced topics of identification namely the linear time-varying (LTV), non-linear, and closed-loop identification Discusses a multivariable approach to identification using the iterative principal component analysis Embeds MATLAB® codes for illustrated examples in the text at the respective points Principles of System Identification: Theory and Practice presents a formal base in LTI deterministic and stochastic systems modeling and estimation theory; it is a one-stop reference for introductory to moderately advanced courses on system identification, as well as introductory courses on stochastic signal processing or time-series analysis.The MATLAB scripts and SIMULINK models used as examples and case studies in the book are also available on the author's website: http://arunkt.wix.com/homepage#!textbook/c397

Process Engineering and Design Using Visual Basic

By: Arun Datta

Software tools are a great aid to process engineers, but too much dependence on such tools can often lead to inappropriate and suboptimal designs. Reliance on software is also a hindrance without a firm understanding of the principles underlying its operation, since users are still responsible for devising the design. In Process Engineering
