Curves and Singularities

Cambridge University Press, 1985

The object of this book is to introduce to a new generation of students an area of mathematics that has received a tremendous impetus during the last twenty years or so from developments in singularity theory.

The differential geometry of curves, families of curves and surfaces in Euclidean space has fascinated mathematicians and users...

Build an effective vulnerability management strategy to protect your organization’s assets, applications, and data.

Today’s network environments are dynamic, requiring multiple defenses to mitigate vulnerabilities and stop data breaches. In the modern enterprise, everything connected to the network is a...

Mathematics for Computer Graphics

Springer, 2005

Baffled by maths? Then don't give up hope. John Vince will show you how to understand many of the mathematical ideas used in computer animation, virtual reality, CAD, and other areas of computer graphics. In thirteen chapters you will rediscover - and hopefully discover for the first time a new way of understanding - the mathematical techniques...

Acoustic Diffusers and Absorbers: Theory, Design and Application

Taylor & Francis, 2004

Every book tells a story and there is a story behind every book. This story begins in 1980, in the conference room of the laboratory for the structure of matter at the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) in Washington, DC, where Peter D’Antonio was employed as a diffraction physicist. Knowing Peter’s interest in music, a colleague handed...

Modeling of Curves and Surfaces with MATLAB®

Springer, 2010

This text on geometry modeling is devoted to a number of central geometrical topics— graphs of functions, transformations, (non-)Euclidean geometries, curves and surfaces— and presents some elementary methods for analytical modeling and visualization of them.

In 1872 F. Klein proposed his Erlangen Programme in...

Constant Mean Curvature Surfaces with Boundary (Springer Monographs in Mathematics)

Springer, 2013

The study of surfaces with constant mean curvature (CMC) is one of the main topics in classical differential geometry. Moreover, CMC surfaces are important mathematical models for the physics of interfaces in the absence of gravity, where they separate two different media or for capillary phenomena. Further, as most techniques used in the...

This unique text/reference reviews algorithms for the exact or approximate solution of shortest-path problems, with a specific focus on a class of algorithms called rubberband algorithms. Discussing each concept and algorithm in depth, the book includes mathematical proofs for many of the given statements. Topics and features: provides...

Image Processing and Jump Regression Analysis (Wiley Series in Probability and Statistics)

John Wiley & Sons, 2005

The first text to bridge the gap between image processing and jump regression analysis

Recent statistical tools developed to estimate jump curves and surfaces have broad applications, specifically in the area of image processing. Often, significant differences in technical terminologies make communication between the disciplines of image...

Genetic Algorithms in Electromagnetics

John Wiley & Sons, 2007

A thorough and insightful introduction to using genetic algorithms to optimize electromagnetic systems
