Numerical And Analytical Methods For Scientists And Engineers Using Mathematica

Download or read book Numerical and Analytical Methods for Scientists and Engineers Using Mathematica written by Daniel Dubin and published by Wiley-Interscience. This book was released on 2003-05-05 with total page 664 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written from the perspective of a physicist rather than a mathematician, the text focuses on modern practical applications in the physical engineering sciences, attacking these problems with a range of numerical and analytical methods, both elementary and advanced. Incorporating the widely used and highly praised Mathematica® software package, the author offers solution techniques for the partial differential equations of mathematical physics such as Poisson's equation, the wave equation, and Schrödinger's equation, including Fourier series and transforms, Green's functions, the method of characteristics, grids, Galerkin and simulation methods, elementary probability theory, and statistical methods.
