Perturbative methods:
tools to solve nonlinear problems

Course outline: The aim of these Seminars is to provide some ideas on methods
to study nonlinear problems modelled via nonlinear ordinary differential equations.
Specifically, a brief overview on ad hoc methods developed when a small parameter
appears is given. The examples of weakly damped oscillator (toy problem) and the
physical pendulum are considered to illustrate the method.
Timetable: Tuesday & Thurday 12 -2 p.m. (when possible) The arguments can be schematically listed in: The results are visualised via computer algebra manipulation (MATLAB’ Tollbox).
