Partial Differential Equations: Modelling and Numerical Simulation (Computational Methods in Applied Sciences)

Springer, 2008

This book is dedicated to Olivier Pironneau.

For more than 250 years partial differential equations have been clearly the most important tool available to mankind in order to understand a large variety of phenomena, natural at first and then those originating from human activity and technological development. Mechanics, physics and their...

Families of Conformally Covariant Differential Operators, Q-Curvature and Holography (Progress in Mathematics)

Birkhauser, 2009

The central object of the book is Q-curvature. This important and subtle scalar Riemannian curvature quantity was introduced by Tom Branson about 15 year ago in connection with variational formulas for determinants of conformally covariant differential operators. The book studies structural properties of Q-curvature from an extrinsic point of view...

The Boundary Element Method with Programming: For Engineers and Scientists

Springer, 2008

This is a thorough, yet understandable text about the boundary element method (BEM), an attractive alternative to the finite element method (FEM). It not only explains the theory, but also deals with the implementation into computer code written in FORTRAN 95 (software can be freely downloaded). Applications range from potential problems to static...

Origamics: Mathematical Explorations Through Paper Folding

World Scientific Publishing, 2008

The art of origami, or paper folding, is carried out using a square piece of paper to obtain attractive figures of animals, flowers or other familiar figures. It is easy to see that origami has links with geometry. Creases and edges represent lines, intersecting creases and edges make angles, while the intersections themselves represent points....

Error-Correcting Linear Codes: Classification by Isometry and Applications

Springer, 2006

This text offers an introduction to error-correcting linear codes for graduate students in mathematics, computer science and engineering and researchers. The book differs from other standard texts in its emphasis on the classification of codes by means of isometry classes. The relevant algebraic concepts like finite fields and group actions are...

Statics and Dynamics with Background Mathematics

Cambridge University Press, 2003

On their first encounter with statics and dynamics, students often have difficulty with three particular aspects of the subject. These are (1) visualization of the physical properties involved, (2) expression of the latter in mathematical terms and (3) manipulation of the mathematics in order to solve the various problems that arise. The aim of...

Quantum Computer Science (Synthesis Lectures on Quantum Computing)

Morgan and Claypool Publishers, 2008

In this text we present a technical overview of the emerging field of quantum computation along with new research results by the authors. What distinguishes our presentation from that of others is our focus on the relationship between quantum computation and computer science. Specifically, our emphasis is on the computational model of quantum...

Medical Computer Vision: Recognition Techniques and Applications in Medical Imaging

Springer, 2011

The Workshop on Medical Computer Vision (MICCAI-MCV 2010) was held in conjunction with the 13th International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer – Assisted Intervention (MICCAI 2010) on September 20, 2010 in Beijing, China. The one-day workshop focused on recognition techniques and applications in medical imaging. The...
