Advanced Mathematics for Applications >> By Andrea Prosperetti

Author: Andrea Prosperetti, The Johns Hopkins University and University of Twente | Size: 4.21 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY PRESS | Year: January 2011 | pages: 744 | ISBN: ISBN:9780521515320

The partial differential equations that govern scalar and vector fields are the very language used to model a variety of phenomena in solid mechanics, fluid flow, acoustics, heat transfer, electromagnetism and many others. A knowledge of the main equations and of the methods for analyzing them is therefore essential to every working physical scientist and engineer. Andrea Prosperetti draws on many years' research experience to produce a guide to a wide variety of methods, ranging from classical Fourier-type series through to the theory of distributions and basic functional analysis. Theorems are stated precisely and their meaning explained, though proofs are mostly only sketched, with comments and examples being given more prominence. The book structure does not require sequential reading: each chapter is self-contained and users can fashion their own path through the material. Topics are first introduced in the context of applications, and later complemented by a more thorough presentation.

Andrea Prosperetti draws on many years' experience at the forefront of research to produce a guide to the mathematical methods needed for classical fields. Each chapter is essentially self-contained, so users can fashion their own path through the material according to their needs.

Andrea Prosperetti is the Charles A. Miller, Jr Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Johns Hopkins University. He also holds the Berkhoff Chair in the Department of Applied Sciences at the University of Twente in the Netherlands.
