Congratulations on this excellent venture… what a great idea!

I use WIKI 2 every day and almost forgot how the original Wikipedia looks like.
In mathematics and physics, multiple-scale analysis (also called the method of multiple scales) comprises techniques used to construct uniformly valid approximations to the solutions of perturbation problems, both for small as well as large values of the independent variables. This is done by introducing fast-scale and slow-scale variables for an independent variable, and subsequently treating these variables, fast and slow, as if they are independent. In the solution process of the perturbation problem thereafter, the resulting additional freedom – introduced by the new independent variables – is used to remove (unwanted) secular terms. The latter puts constraints on the approximate solution, which are called solvability conditions.
Mathematics research from about the 1980s proposes that coordinate transforms and invariant manifolds provide a sounder support for multiscale modelling (for example, see center manifold and slow manifold).

Example: undamped Duffing equation
Differential equation and energy conservation
As an example for the method of multiple-scale analysis, consider the undamped and unforced Duffing equation:[1]
with q = y(t) and p = dy/dt. Consequently, the Hamiltonian H(p, q) is a conserved quantity, a constant, equal to H = 1/2 + 1/4ε for the given initial conditions. This implies that both y and dy/dt have to be bounded:
Straightforward perturbation-series solution
A regular perturbation-series approach to the problem proceeds by writing and substituting this into the undamped Duffing equation. Matching powers of gives the system of equations
Solving these subject to the initial conditions yields
Note that the last term between the square braces is secular: it grows without bound for large |t|. In particular, for this term is O(1) and has the same order of magnitude as the leading-order term. Because the terms have become disordered, the series is no longer an asymptotic expansion of the solution.
Method of multiple scales
To construct a solution that is valid beyond , the method of multiple-scale analysis is used. Introduce the slow scale t1:
and assume the solution y(t) is a perturbation-series solution dependent both on t and t1, treated as:
So:
using dt1/dt = ε. Similarly:
Then the zeroth- and first-order problems of the multiple-scales perturbation series for the Duffing equation become:
Solution
The zeroth-order problem has the general solution:
with A(t1) a complex-valued amplitude to the zeroth-order solution Y0(t, t1) and i2 = −1. Now, in the first-order problem the forcing in the right hand side of the differential equation is
where c.c. denotes the complex conjugate of the preceding terms. The occurrence of secular terms can be prevented by imposing on the – yet unknown – amplitude A(t1) the solvability condition
The solution to the solvability condition, also satisfying the initial conditions y(0) = 1 and dy/dt(0) = 0, is:
As a result, the approximate solution by the multiple-scales analysis is
using t1 = εt and valid for εt = O(1). This agrees with the nonlinear frequency changes found by employing the Lindstedt–Poincaré method.
This new solution is valid until . Higher-order solutions – using the method of multiple scales – require the introduction of additional slow scales, i.e., t2 = ε2t, t3 = ε3t, etc. However, this introduces possible ambiguities in the perturbation series solution, which require a careful treatment (see Kevorkian & Cole 1996; Bender & Orszag 1999).[2]
Coordinate transform to amplitude/phase variables
Alternatively, modern approaches derive these sorts of models using coordinate transforms, like in the method of normal forms,[3] as described next.
A solution is sought in new coordinates where the amplitude varies slowly and the phase varies at an almost constant rate, namely Straightforward algebra finds the coordinate transform[citation needed]
transforms Duffing's equation into the pair that the radius is constant and the phase evolves according to
That is, Duffing's oscillations are of constant amplitude but have different frequencies depending upon the amplitude.[4]
More difficult examples are better treated using a time-dependent coordinate transform involving complex exponentials (as also invoked in the previous multiple time-scale approach). A web service will perform the analysis for a wide range of examples.[5]
