PRODUCT INFORMATION
Summary
A textbook demonstrating the power of mathematics in solving practical, scientific, and technical problems through mathematical modelling techniques.
Description
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 ownmodels of new situations.
Critic Reviews
“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.”
Review from previous edition 'An attractive, clear, and well-motivated treatment of advanced problems ... a valuable addition to the field and will be well worth studying by all students of applied mechanics and mathematics, and should be in their personal libraries as well as in the reference libraries.''Applied Mechanical Review'Contains some wonderful examples of the most applied mathematics ... an excellent source of examples for any course in modelling.''The Mathematical Intelligencer
