Description for Computational Physics
hardcover. The essential point in computational physics is not the use of machines, but the systematic application of numerical techniques in place of, and in addition to, analytical methods, in order to render accessible to computation as large a part of physical reality as possible. This book considers the fresh vistas that have opened up in this field. Num Pages: 259 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PHV. Category: (G) General (US: Trade); (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 254 x 178 x 25. Weight in Grams: 1680.
In a rapidly evolving field such as computational physics, six years is an eternity. Even though many of the elementary techniques described here are of venerable age, their assembly into sophisticated combined methods and their intensive application to ever new problems is an ongoing and exciting process. After six years, a new the new vistas edition of this textbook must therefore take into account some of that have opened up recently. Apart from these additions and some didactic improvements, the general struc ture of the book holds good. The first three chapters are devoted to a thorough, if concise, treatment ... Read more
