9780198535331: Mathematical Models in Applied Mechanics

Synopsis

This text demonstrates the power of mathematics to solve practical scientific and technical problems by formulating and finding solutions for models of these problems, especially by methods based upon the use of partial differential equations. Designed primarily for final-year undergraduates and graduate students, the book springs from the author's experience in teaching a course on this subject at first-year postgraduate level, and more generally from the work done since 1967 by the Oxford Study Groups with Industry. The text is combined with twenty-one carefully ordered problems taken from real situations, and students are encouraged to develop the skill of constructing their own models of new situations.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This textbook demonstrates the power of mathematics in solving practical, scientific, and technical problems through mathematical modelling techniques. It has been designed specifically for final year undergraduate and graduate students, and springs from the author's extensive teaching experience. The text is combined with twenty-one carefully ordered problems taken from real situations, and students are encouraged to develop the skill of constructing their own models of new situations.

Revue de presse

The author shows fruitfulness of the asymptotic approach for modelling of nature phenomena and technical systems ... This book is a reader-friendly textbook in the fields of mathematical modelling. It can be recommended for students as a useful approach to modelling in Applied Mechanics. ( Zentralblatt MATH)
