Scientists and engineers attempting to solve complex problems require efficient, effective ways of applying numerical methods to ODEs and PDEs. They need a resource that enables fast access to library routines in their choice of a programming language.
Ordinary and Partial Differential Equation Routines in C, C++, Fortran, Java, Maple, and MATLAB provides a set of ODE/PDE integration routines in the six most widely used languages in science and engineering, enabling scientists and engineers to apply ODE/PDE analysis toward solving complex problems.
This text concisely reviews integration algorithms, then analyzes the widely used Runge Kutta method ( since hyphenation is used here, I added it below; hyphenation could also be dropped since it is not used in the book). It first presents a complete code before discussing its components in detail, focusing on integration concepts such as error monitoring and control.
The format allows you to understand the basics of ODE/PDE integration, then calculate sample numerical solutions within your targeted programming language. The applications discussed can be used as templates for the development of a spectrum of new applications and associated codes.
It is now more than twenty years since a proposal was first mooted
to hold an international tunnelling symposium in Britain. At the
time of the first symposium, held in London in 1976, the Channel
Tunnel pro ject had just been shelved. Last weekend a charity walk
was held in the finished tunnel, which will be open for business
later in the year. Tunnels have figured prominently, and at times
spectacularly, in the development of national and international
links and it is hoped that such links gather pace in the future. It
is particularly pleasing that Alastair Biggart of Storebrelt has
agreed to deliver the twenty-sixth Sir Julius Wernher Memorial
Lecture of the Institution of Mining and Metallurgy, entitled 'The
changing face of tunnelling', at the start of this event. *
Although almost every edition of the technical journals on
tunnelling reports another GBP1 billion scheme somewhere in the
world, it would be unfair of me to suggest that tunnelling is
restricted to these prestigious schemes for major transport links.
Much of the work that makes mod ern life possible receives hardly a
mention outside the technical press and one suspects that society
at large applies the 'out of sight, out of mind' attitude even more
readily to underground construction than it does to other forms of
engineering. Clearly, there is a contiiming need to improve the
capacity and performance of our infrastructure, while hav ing a
careful regard for the environment.
The fourth book of poetry by H. J. Lee Bennett, III (a.k.a. Lee the
Poet), The Terminal promises to pick up where Babylon Songs left
off. This is Lee's first book of poetry in over six years, yet he
makes no missteps and pulls no punches in this triumphant return.
If you are a fan of cerebral yet heartfelt poetry, you need look no
further than this author. The Terminal is a multi-faceted book of
poetry that is destined to become an instant classic. As stunning
as it is intimate, Lee's newest installment captures the personal
struggles of acknowledgment and acceptance in the pursuit of (self)
love-issues that we all contend with on life's journey. The
Terminal is one man's search for inner truth and understanding that
beautifully begs the question, which direction are you headed?
