Solving Ordinary Differential Equations in Python
BY Joakim Sundnes
Summary
Solving Ordinary Differential Equations in Python by Joakim Sundnes is an open-access, practical introduction to solving ordinary differential equations (ODEs) using Python, combining the mathematical foundations of numerical methods with their implementation in software. The book focuses particularly on Runge–Kutta methods, explaining simple solvers, accuracy improvements, explicit and implicit methods for stiff systems, error control, and adaptive time-stepping.
It also demonstrates how to build reusable ODE solvers using Python and concludes with an application to infectious-disease modeling, showing how relatively simple differential-equation systems can represent complex real-world phenomena. Overall, the book is designed to help students and researchers understand not only how to use existing ODE software but also how and why different numerical solvers work and when to choose each one.
