Derivative with a new parameter : theory, methods and applications / [electronic resource] Abdon Atangana. Atangana, Abdon, author. Derivatives (Mathematics) Differential calculus. QA325 515/.33 23 Includes bibliographical references. Online resource; title from PDF title page (ScienceDirect, viewed September 29, 2015). Annotation This text starts off by giving a history of derivatives, from Newton to Caputo. It then goes on to introduce the new parameters for the local derivative, including its definition and properties. Additional topics define beta-Laplace transforms, beta-Sumudu transforms and beta-Fourier transforms, including their properties, and then go on to describe the method for partial differential with the beta derivatives. Subsequent sections give examples on how local derivatives with a new parameter can be used to model different applications, such as groundwater flow and different diseases. 2015 Text 1 online resource http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780081006443 eng Derivative with a New Parameter : Theory, Methods and Applications.
