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...

Mathematical Models for Poroelastic Flows (Atlantis Studies in Differential Equations)

Atlantis Press, 2013

The book is devoted to rigorous derivation of macroscopic mathematical models as a homogenization of exact mathematical models at the microscopic level. The idea is quite natural: one first must describe the joint motion of the elastic skeleton and the fluid in pores at the microscopic level by means of classical continuum mechanics, and then...

Fundamentals of Wireless Communication

Cambridge University Press, 2005

Wireless communication is one of the most vibrant areas in the communication
field today. While it has been a topic of study since the 1960s,
the past decade has seen a surge of research activities in the area. This is
due to a confluence of several factors. First, there has been an explosive
increase in demand for tetherless...

Information Architecture for the World Wide Web

O'Reilly, 2006

The post-Ajaxian Web 2.0 world of wikis, folksonomies, and mashups makes well-planned information architecture even more essential. How do you present large volumes of information to people who need to find what they're looking for quickly? This classic primer shows information architects, designers, and web site developers how to build...

Bioinformatics: A Practical Guide to the Analysis of Genes and Proteins, Second Edition

John Wiley & Sons, 2001

"In this book, Andy Baxevanis and Francis Ouellette . . . have undertaken the difficult task of organizing the knowledge in this field in a logical progression and presenting it in a digestible form. And they have done an excellent job. This fine text will make a major impact on biological research and, in turn, on progress in biomedicine. We...

Virtual Crowds: Methods, Simulation, and Control (Synthesis Lectures on Computer Graphics and Animation)

Morgan and Claypool Publishers, 2008

There are many applications of computer animation and simulation where it is necessary to model virtual crowds of autonomous agents. Some of these applications include site planning, education, entertainment, training, and human factors analysis for building evacuation. Other applications include simulations of scenarios where masses of people...

Ordering Disorder: Grid Principles for Web Design (Voices That Matter)

New Riders Publishing, 2010

At some level, design can be seen as a method of using creativity to impose tyranny on the world. Not tyranny in its classical sense, but rather tyranny on a much more modest, much more personal scale.

In the progression from problem to idea to solution, the designer may describe what she does in commercial terms (business...
