As well as touching upon the general principles of modelling, the book studies the stability of mathematical models using the generalised direct Lyapunov method based on matrix-valued auxiliary functions. It has significant potential for application in the design of new moving objects (nano-robots, manipulators, drones, etc.) and processes related to artificial intelligence (multidimensional interaction of related data arrays) that can be described by differential equations of different types.
Written by two respected specialists in the field of the qualitative theory of equations and problems of modelling real-world phenomena, this book is primarily targeted at specialists in the field of engineering sciences, but is also suitable for graduate courses.
