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.
