R1,480 Discovery Miles 14 800 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Homogenization is a fairly new, yet deep field of mathematics which is used as a powerful tool for analysis of applied problems which involve multiple scales. Generally, homogenization is utilized as a modeling procedure to describe processes in complex structures. Applications of Homogenization Theory to the Study of Mineralized Tissue functions as an introduction to the theory of homogenization. At the same time, the book explains how to apply the theory to various application problems in biology, physics and engineering. The authors are experts in the field and collaborated to create this book which is a useful research monograph for applied mathematicians, engineers and geophysicists. As for students and instructors, this book is a well-rounded and comprehensive text on the topic of homogenization for graduate level courses or special mathematics classes. Features: Covers applications in both geophysics and biology. Includes recent results not found in classical books on the topic Focuses on evolutionary kinds of problems; there is little overlap with books dealing with variational methods and T-convergence Includes new results where the G-limits have different structures from the initial operators

Multivariable Calculus with Mathematica (Paperback): Robert P. Gilbert, Michael Shoushani, Yvonne Ou Multivariable Calculus with Mathematica (Paperback)

R1,320 Discovery Miles 13 200 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Multivariable Calculus with Mathematica is a textbook addressing the calculus of several variables. Instead of just using Mathematica to directly solve problems, the students are encouraged to learn the syntax and to write their own code to solve problems. This not only encourages scientific computing skills but at the same time stresses the complete understanding of the mathematics. Questions are provided at the end of the chapters to test the student's theoretical understanding of the mathematics, and there are also computer algebra questions which test the student's ability to apply their knowledge in non-trivial ways. Features Ensures that students are not just using the package to directly solve problems, but learning the syntax to write their own code to solve problems Suitable as a main textbook for a Calculus III course, and as a supplementary text for topics scientific computing, engineering, and mathematical physics Written in a style that engages the students' interest and encourages the understanding of the mathematical ideas

Differential Equations - A Maple (TM) Supplement (Paperback, 2nd edition): Robert P. Gilbert, George C. Hsiao, Robert J. Ronkese Differential Equations - A Maple (TM) Supplement (Paperback, 2nd edition)

R1,597 Discovery Miles 15 970 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book illustrates how MAPLE can be used to supplement a standard, elementary text in ordinary and partial differential equation. MAPLE is used with several purposes in mind. The authors are firm believers in the teaching of mathematics as an experimental science where the student does numerous calculations and then synthesizes these experiments into a general theory. Projects based on the concept of writing generic programs test a student's understanding of the theoretical material of the course. A student who can solve a general problem certainly can solve a specialized problem. The authors show MAPLE has a built-in program for doing these problems. While it is important for the student to learn MAPLES in built programs, using these alone removes the student from the conceptual nature of differential equations. The goal of the book is to teach the students enough about the computer algebra system MAPLE so that it can be used in an investigative way. The investigative materials which are present in the book are done in desk calculator mode DCM, that is the calculations are in the order command line followed by output line. Frequently, this approach eventually leads to a program or procedure in MAPLE designated by proc and completed by end proc. This book was developed through ten years of instruction in the differential equations course. Table of Contents 1. Introduction to the Maple DEtools 2. First-order Differential Equations 3.

R2,848 Discovery Miles 28 480 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This is a new type of calculus book: Students who master this text will be well versed in calculus and, in addition, possess a useful working knowledge of how to use modern symbolic mathematics software systems for solving problems in calculus. This will equip them with the mathematical competence they need for science and engineering and the competitive workplace. MACSYMA is used as the software in which the example programs and calculations are given. However, by the experience gained in this book, the student will also be able to use any of the other major mathematical software systems, like for example AXIOM, MATHEMATICA, MAPLE, DERIVE or REDUCE, for "doing calculus on computers".

Marine Acoustics - Direct and Inverse Problems (Paperback, Illustrated Ed): James L. Buchanan, Robert P. Gilbert, Armand... Marine Acoustics - Direct and Inverse Problems (Paperback, Illustrated Ed)
James L. Buchanan, Robert P. Gilbert, Armand Wirgin, Yongzhi S. Xu
R3,219 Discovery Miles 32 190 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book presents current research trends in the field of underwater acoustic wave direct and inverse problems. Until very recently, little had been published concerning model-based inversions of the boundaries and material constants of finite-sized targets located in either the water column or the sediments. This text is the first to investigate inverse problems in an ocean environment, with a heavy emphasis placed on the description and resolution of the forward scattering problem. Marine Acoustics emphasizes computation of Green's Functions with new material added for elastic and poro-elastic seabeds. This timely publication addresses many areas of practical interest related to underwater acoustical imaging, including ecological survey and cleanup, protection of open water harbors, maintenance of offshore petroleum and gas enterprises, and other areas of environmental and military concern. The ocean-seabed system is an acoustic waveguide, and this is the only book that treats inverse problems in a waveguide. The propagation of acoustic waves in this system is treated for various types of seabeds and the direct and inverse problems are considered in realistic ocean environments. The inverse problem is to determine the shape of an impenetrable or penetrable object, or to determine the coefficients describing the seabed. This is done by acoustically illuminating the seabed and investigating the scattered field.
