Differential Games (eBook, PDF)

Theory and Methods for Solving Game Problems with Singular Surfaces

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Differential games theory is the most appropriate discipline for the modelling and analysis of real life conflict problems. The theory of differential games is here treated with an emphasis on the construction of solutions to actual problems with singular surfaces. The reader is provided with the knowledge necessary to put the theory of differential games into practice.
