The quantitative and qualitative study of the physical world makes
use of many mathematical models governed by a great diversity of
ordinary, partial differential, integral, and integro-differential
equations. An essential step in such investigations is the solution
of these types of equations, which sometimes can be performed
analytically, while at other times only numerically. This edited,
self-contained volume presents a series of state-of-the-art
analytic and numerical methods of solution constructed for
important problems arising in science and engineering, all based on
the powerful operation of (exact or approximate) integration.
The book, consisting of twenty seven selected chapters presented
by well-known specialists in the field, is an outgrowth of the
Eighth International Conference on Integral Methods in Science and
Engineering, held August 2a "4, 2004, in Orlando, FL. Contributors
cover a wide variety of topics, from the theoretical development of
boundary integral methods to the application of integration-based
analytic and numerical techniques that include integral equations,
finite and boundary elements, conservation laws, hybrid approaches,
and other procedures.
The volume may be used as a reference guide and a practical
resource. It is suitable for researchers and practitioners in
applied mathematics, physics, and mechanical and electrical
engineering, as well as graduate students in these disciplines.
