Scaling of Differential EquationsΒΆ

Authors:Hans Petter Langtangen, Geir K. Pedersen

This book explains the mathematical details of making differential equation models dimensionless. A key feature of the text is the reasoning about the right choice of scales. A large number of worked examples demonstrate the scaling technique for ordinary and partial differential equations from physics and biology. How to utilize scaled models in simulation software is also addressed.
