This book presents a coherent introduction to boundary integral, boundary element and singularity methods for steady and unsteady flow at zero Reynolds number. The focus of the discussion is not only on the theoretical foundation, but also on the practical application and computer implementation. …
Nonlinear Systems
Av P. G. Drazin, D. G. Crighton m. fl.
Häftad, 1992
1074 kr
Lägg i varukorg
The theories of bifurcation, chaos and fractals as well as equilibrium, stability and nonlinear oscillations, are part of the theory of the evolution of solutions of nonlinear equations. A wide range of mathematical tools and ideas are drawn together in the study of these solutions, and the results …
Mathematical Models in the Applied Sciences
Av A. C. Fowler, D. G. Crighton m. fl.
Häftad, 1997
992 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Mathematical modelling is the basis of almost all applied mathematics. A 'real-world' problem is dissected and phrased in a mathematical setting, allowing it to be simplified and ultimately solved. This book presents a thorough grounding in the techniques of modelling, and proceeds to explore a …
Symmetry Methods for Differential Equations
A Beginner's Guide
Av Peter E. Hydon, D. G. Crighton m. fl.
Inbunden, 2000
1987 kr

Scaling
Av Grigory Isaakovich Barenblatt, D. G. Crighton
Häftad, 2003
780 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Many phenomena in nature, engineering or society when seen at an intermediate distance, in space or time, exhibit the remarkable property of self-similarity: they reproduce themselves as scales change, subject to so-called scaling laws. It's crucial to know the details of these laws, so that …
Thinking about Ordinary Differential Equations
Av Robert E. O'Malley, Jr, D. G. Crighton
Häftad, 1997
710 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Ordinary differential equations - the building blocks of mathematical modelling - are also key elements of disciplines as diverse as engineering and economics. While mastery of these equations is essential, adhering to any one method of solving them is not: this book stresses alternative examples …
