The Method of Normal Forms

Ebook (PDF Format)

In this introductory treatment the author Ali Nayfeh presents different concepts of dynamical systems theory and nonlinear dynamics. He systematically introduces models and techniques and states the relevant ranges of their validity and applicability. The text provides the reader with a clear operational framework instead of focusing on the underlying mathematical rigor. The exposition mainly features examples, which are shown through to their fianl outcome. For most of the examples, the results obtained with the method of normal forms are shown to be equivalent to to those obtained with other perturbation methods, such as the method of multi… Mehr
