Introduction to Dynamical Systems: A Hands-on Approach with Maxima
by Jaime E. Villate
2006
ISBN/ASIN: 9729939608
Number of pages: 43
Description:
In this book we explore some topics on dynamical systems, using an active teaching approach, supported by computing tools and trying to avoid too may abstract details. The subject of this book on dynamical systems is at the borderline of physics, mathematics and computing.

Singularities of Transition Processes in Dynamical Systemsby Alexander N. Gorban - American Mathematical Society
This monograph presents a systematic analysis of the singularities in the transition processes for dynamical systems. We study general dynamical systems, with dependence on a parameter, and construct relaxation times that depend on three variables.
