Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Advances in techniques that reduce or eliminate the type of meshes
associated with finite elements or finite differences are reported
in the papers that form this volume. As design, analysis and
manufacture become more integrated, the chances are that software
users will be less aware of the capabilities of the analytical
techniques that are at the core of the process. This reinforces the
need to retain expertise in certain specialised areas of numerical
methods, such as BEM/MRM, to ensure that all new tools perform
satisfactorily within the aforementioned integrated process. The
maturity of BEM since 1978 has resulted in a substantial number of
industrial applications of the method; this demonstrates its
accuracy, robustness and ease of use. The range of applications
still needs to be widened, taking into account the potentialities
of the Mesh Reduction techniques in general. The included papers
originate from the 45th conference on Boundary Elements and other
Mesh Reduction Methods (BEM/MRM) and describe theoretical
developments and new formulations, helping to expand the range of
applications as well as the type of modelled materials in response
to the requirements of contemporary industrial and professional
environments.
Fractal calculus is the simple, constructive, and algorithmic
approach to natural processes modeling, which is impossible using
smooth differentiable structures and the usual modeling tools such
as differential equations. It is the calculus of the future and
will have many applications.This book is the first to introduce
fractal calculus and provides a basis for the research and
development of this framework. It is suitable for undergraduate and
graduate students in mathematics and physics who have mastered
general mathematics, quantum physics, and statistical mechanics, as
well as researchers dealing with fractal structures in various
disciplines.
Using the familiar software Microsoft ® Excel, this book examines
the applications of complex variables. Implementation of the
included problems in Excel eliminates the “black box” nature of
more advanced computer software and programming languages and
therefore the reader has the chance to become more familiar with
the underlying mathematics of the complex variable problems. This
book consists of two parts. In Part I, several topics are covered
that one would expect to find in an introductory text on complex
variables. These topics include an overview of complex numbers,
functions of a complex variable, and the Cauchy integral formula.
In particular, attention is given to the study of analytic complex
variable functions. This attention is warranted because of the
property that the real and imaginary parts of an analytic complex
variable function can be used to solve the Laplace partial
differential equation (PDE). Laplace's equation is ubiquitous
throughout science and engineering as it can be used to model the
steady-state conditions of several important transport processes
including heat transfer, soil-water flow, electrostatics, and ideal
fluid flow, among others. In Part II, a specialty application of
complex variables known as the Complex Variable Boundary Element
Method (CVBEM) is examined. CVBEM is a numerical method used for
solving boundary value problems governed by Laplace's equation.
This part contains a detailed description of the CVBEM and a guide
through each step of constructing two CVBEM programs in Excel. The
writing of these programs is the culminating event of the book.
Students of complex variables and anyone with interest in a novel
method for approximating potential functions using the principles
of complex variables are the intended audience for this book. The
Microsoft Excel applications (including simple programs as well as
the CVBEM program) covered will also be of interest in the
industry, as these programs are accessible to anybody with
Microsoft Office.
Offering a concise collection of MatLab programs and exercises to
accompany a third semester course in multivariable calculus, "A
MatLab Companion for Multivariable Calculus" introduces simple

show students how to use MatLab effectively and easily in many
contexts. Numerous exercises in mathematics and applications areas
are presented, graded from routine to more demanding projects
requiring some programming. Matlab M-files are provided on the
Harcourt/Academic Press web site at http:
//www.harcourt-ap.com/matlab.html.

"Presents a summary of selected mathematics topics from
college/university level mathematics courses. Fundamental
principles are reviewed and presented by way of examples, figures,
tables and diagrams. It condenses and presents under one cover
basic concepts from several different applied mathematics
topics"--P. [4] of cover.
This book presents tensors and differential geometry in a
comprehensive and approachable manner, providing a bridge from the
place where physics and engineering mathematics end, and the place
where tensor analysis begins. Among the topics examined are tensor
analysis, elementary differential geometry of moving surfaces, and
k-differential forms. The book includes numerous examples with
solutions and concrete calculations, which guide readers through
these complex topics step by step. Mindful of the practical needs
of engineers and physicists, book favors simplicity over a more
rigorous, formal approach. The book shows readers how to work with
tensors and differential geometry and how to apply them to modeling
the physical and engineering world. The authors provide
chapter-length treatment of topics at the intersection of advanced
mathematics, and physics and engineering: * General Basis and
Bra-Ket Notation * Tensor Analysis * Elementary Differential
Geometry * Differential Forms * Applications of Tensors and
Differential Geometry * Tensors and Bra-Ket Notation in Quantum
Mechanics The text reviews methods and applications in
computational fluid dynamics; continuum mechanics; electrodynamics
in special relativity; cosmology in the Minkowski four-dimensional
space time; and relativistic and non-relativistic quantum
mechanics. Tensor Analysis and Elementary Differential Geometry for
Physicists and Engineers benefits research scientists and
practicing engineers in a variety of fields, who use tensor
analysis and differential geometry in the context of applied
physics, and electrical and mechanical engineering. It will also
interest graduate students in applied physics and engineering.
