Computational Interval Methods for Engineering Applicationsexplains how to use classical and advanced interval arithmetic to solve differential equations for a wide range of scientific and engineering problems. In mathematical models where there are variables and parameters of uncertain value, interval methods can be used as an efficient tool for handling this uncertainty. In addition, it can produce rigorous enclosures of solutions of practical problems governed by mathematical equations. Other topics discussed in the book include linear differential equations in areas such as robotics, control theory, and structural dynamics, and in nonlinear oscillators, such as Duffing and Van der Pol.
The chaotic behavior of the enclosure of oscillators is also covered, as are static and dynamic analysis of engineering problems using the interval system of linear equations and eigenvalue problems, thus making this a comprehensive resource.
