Recommend books for dynamical systems?

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around recommendations for books on dynamical systems, particularly focusing on topics related to stability and nonlinear dynamics. Participants seek resources that align with their curriculum and study needs.

Discussion Character

  • Homework-related, Exploratory

Main Points Raised

  • One participant expresses difficulty with certain topics in their curriculum, especially regarding stability, and seeks book recommendations.
  • Another participant suggests "Nonlinear Dynamics And Chaos" by Steven H. Strogatz as a potential resource.
  • There is a request for downloadable notes related to advanced ordinary differential equations and dynamical systems.
  • A response indicates that the notes cannot be downloaded due to setup restrictions.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree on the need for additional resources, but no consensus on specific recommendations beyond the suggested book exists.

Contextual Notes

The discussion highlights specific challenges with the curriculum but does not resolve the issues related to the clarity of explanations or the effectiveness of the suggested resources.

Who May Find This Useful

Students studying dynamical systems, particularly those looking for supplementary materials or struggling with specific topics in their coursework.

I am finding some topics a bit obscurely explained.
I have attached the curriculum/study guide we are using, and was hoping someone could suggest books which cover these bases.

Particularly finding week 8 a bit difficult at the moment, especially stability (surely just more robust revision and studying is required) but i haven't been successful in finding similar topics covered in textbooks.

I am using Kreyzig advanced engineering mathematics and also PV Oneil's advanced eng mathematics.

Any help is appreciated!

thanks, I had a look at your notes prior as well.

Is there any way to download them?

No, it is setup so you can't.
