This book contains about 3,000 first order partial differential equations with solutions. A lot of new exact solutions to linear and nonlinear equations are included.
The text pays special attention to equations of the general form, showing their dependence upon arbitrary functions. At the beginning of each section, basic solution methods for the corresponding types of differential equations are outlined and specific examples are considered. It presents equations and their applications; these include differential geometry, nonlinear mechanics, gas dynamics, heat and mass transfer, wave theory and much more.
This handbook is an invaluable reference source for researchers, engineers and students of applied mathematics, mechanics, control theory and the engineering sciences.

Exact solutions of differential equations continue to play an important role in the understanding of many phenomena and processes throughout the natural sciences in that they can verify the correctness of or estimate errors in solutions reached by numerical, asymptotic, and approximate analytical methods. The new edition of this bestselling handbook now contains the exact solutions to more than 6200 ordinary differential equations. The authors have made significant enhancements to this edition, including:

" An introductory chapter that describes exact, asymptotic, and approximate analytical methods for solving ordinary differential equations
" The addition of solutions to more than 1200 nonlinear equations
" An improved format that allows for an expanded table of contents that makes locating equations of interest more quickly and easily
" Expansion of the supplement on special functions

This handbook's focus on equations encountered in applications and on equations that appear simple but prove particularly difficult to integrate make it an indispensable addition to the arsenals of mathematicians, scientists, and engineers alike.

The Handbook of Ordinary Differential Equations: Exact Solutions, Methods, and Problems, is an exceptional and complete reference for scientists and engineers as it contains over 7,000 ordinary differential equations with solutions.
