Download or read book Mathematical Analysis and Numerical Methods for Science and Technology written by Robert Dautray and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1999-11-23 with total page 748 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These 6 volumes -- the result of a 10 year collaboration between the authors, both distinguished international figures -- compile the mathematical knowledge required by researchers in mechanics, physics, engineering, chemistry and other branches of application of mathematics for the theoretical and numerical resolution of physical models on computers. The advent of high-speed computers has made it possible to calculate values from models accurately and rapidly. Researchers and engineers thus have a crucial means of using numerical results to modify and adapt arguments and experiments along the way.
