A systematic introduction to partial differential equations and modern finite element methods for their efficient numerical solution
Partial Differential Equations and the Finite Element Method provides a much-needed, clear, and systematic introduction to modern theory of partial differential equations (PDEs) and...
This book uses MATLABR to analyze various applications in mathematics and mechanics. The authors hope to encourage engineers and scientists to consider this modern programming environment as an excellent alternative to languages such as FORTRAN or C++. MATLAB1 embodies an interactive environment with a high level programming language...
This updated third edition illustrates the mathematical concepts that a game developer needs to develop 3D computer graphics and game engines at the professional level. It starts at a fairly basic level in areas such as vector geometry and linear algebra, and then progresses to more advanced topics in 3D programming such as illumination and...
This book reminds students in junior, senior and graduate level courses in physics, chemistry and engineering of the math they may have forgotten (or learned imperfectly) which is needed to succeed in science courses.

The second volume continues to fill the gap in protein review and protocol literature. It does this while summarizing recent achievements in the understanding of the relationships between protein misfoldings, aggregation, and development of protein deposition disorders. The focus of Part B is the molecular basis of differential disorders.
This text is an introduction to the basic principles of electrical engineering. It is the outgrowth of
lecture notes prepared by this author while teaching for the electrical engineering and computer
engineering departments at San José State University, DeAnza college, and the College of San Mateo,...
Rational homotopy is a very powerful tool for differential topology and geometry. This text aims to provide graduates and researchers with the tools necessary for the use of rational homotopy in geometry. Algebraic Models in Geometry has been written for topologists who are drawn to geometrical problems amenable to topological methods and also...
Definition of vectors and discussion of algebraic operations on vectors leads to concept of tensor and algebraic operations on tensors. Also, systematic study of the differential and integral calculus of vector and tensor functions of space and time, more. Concise, eminently readable text. Worked out problems, solutions.
This text for students and professionals in computer science provides a valuable overview of current knowledge concerning parallel algorithms. These computer operations have recently acquired increased importance due to their ability to enhance the power of computers by permitting multiple processors to work on different parts of a problem...
A long time ago, when younger and rasher mathematicians, we both momentarily harboured the ambition that one day, older and wiser, we might write a multivolume treatise titled “On the Mathematical Foundations of Numerical Analysis”. And then it dawned that such a creation already exists: it is called ‘a mathematics library’....
This book is the result of a series of lectures on linear algebra and the geometry of multidimensional spaces given in the 1950s through 1970s by Igor R. Shafarevich at the Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics of Moscow State University.
Notes for some of these lectures were preserved in the faculty library, and these were used...
Exploring Monte Carlo Methods is a basic text that describes the numerical methods that have come to be known as "Monte Carlo." The book treats the subject generically through the first eight chapters and, thus, should be of use to anyone who wants to learn to use Monte Carlo. The next two chapters focus on applications in nuclear...
