Description for Scientific Computing with Case Studies
Paperback. A practical guide to the numerical solution of linear and nonlinear equations, differential equations, optimization problems, and eigenvalue problems. Num Pages: 395 pages, col. Illustrations. BIC Classification: PBK; PBKS; TBJ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 252 x 171 x 18. Weight in Grams: 814.
This book is a practical guide to the numerical solution of linear and nonlinear equations, differential equations, optimization problems, and eigenvalue problems. It treats standard problems and introduces important variants such as sparse systems, differential-algebraic equations, constrained optimization, Monte Carlo simulations, and parametric studies. Stability and error analysis are emphasized, and the Matlab algorithms are grounded in sound principles of software design and understanding of machine arithmetic and memory management. Nineteen case studies provide experience in mathematical modeling and algorithm design, motivated by problems in physics, engineering, epidemiology, chemistry, and biology. The topics included go well beyond the standard first-course ... Read more
