In mathematics and science, a nonlinear system (or a non-linear system) is a system in which the change of the output is not proportional to the change of the input. [1] [2] Nonlinear problems are of interest to engineers, biologists, [3] [4] [5] physicists, [6] [7] mathematicians, and many other scientists since most systems are inherently nonlinear in nature.

Numerical continuation is a method of computing approximate solutions of a system of parameterized nonlinear equations, (,) = [1]The parameter is usually a real scalar and the solution is an n-vector.
The system + =, + = has exactly one solution: x = 1, y = 2 The nonlinear system + =, + = has the two solutions (x, y) = (1, 0) and (x, y) = (0, 1), while + + =, + + =, + + = has an infinite number of solutions because the third equation is the first equation plus twice the second one and hence contains no independent information; thus any value of z can be chosen and values of x and y can be ...
Nonlinear ones are of particular interest for their commonality in describing real-world systems and how much more difficult they are to solve compared to linear differential equations. This list presents nonlinear ordinary differential equations that have been named, sorted by area of interest.
Newton–Krylov methods are numerical methods for solving non-linear problems using Krylov subspace linear solvers. [1] [2] Generalising the Newton method to systems of multiple variables, the iteration formula includes a Jacobian matrix. Solving this directly would involve calculation of the Jacobian's inverse, when the Jacobian matrix itself ...
Relaxation methods were developed for solving large sparse linear systems, which arose as finite-difference discretizations of differential equations. [2] [3] They are also used for the solution of linear equations for linear least-squares problems [4] and also for systems of linear inequalities, such as those arising in linear programming.
In the last twenty years, the HAM has been applied to solve a growing number of nonlinear ordinary/partial differential equations in science, finance, and engineering. [8] [9] For example, multiple steady-state resonant waves in deep and finite water depth [10] were found with the wave resonance criterion of arbitrary number of traveling gravity waves; this agreed with Phillips' criterion for ...
System identification is a method of identifying or measuring the mathematical model of a system from measurements of the system inputs and outputs. The applications of system identification include any system where the inputs and outputs can be measured and include industrial processes, control systems, economic data, biology and the life sciences, medicine, social systems and many more.
