Practical MATLAB Modeling with Simulink: Programming and Simulating Ordinary and Partial Differential Equations

Practical MATLAB Modeling with Simulink: Programming and Simulating Ordinary and Partial Differential Equations explains various practical issues of programming and modelling. Employ the essential and hands-on tools and functions of MATLAB's ordinary differential equation (ODE) and partial differential equation (PDE) packages, which are explained and demonstrated via interactive examples and case studies. This book contains dozens of simulations and solved problems via MATLAB files and Simulink models which help you to learn programming and modeling of more difficult, complex problems that involve the use of ODEs and PDEs.

You’ll become efficient with many of the built-in tools and functions of MATLAB and Simulink while solving more complex engineering and scientific computing problems that require and use differential equations. After reading and using this book, you'll be proficient at using MATLAB and applying the source code from the book's examples as templates for your own projects in data science or engineering.
