While most textbooks on Numerical Analysis discuss linear techniques for the solution of various numerical problems, this book introduces and illustrates nonlin

The description of many interesting phenomena in science and engineering leads to infinite-dimensional minimization or evolution problems that define nonlinear

This book has become the standard for a complete, state-of-the-art description of the methods for unconstrained optimization and systems of nonlinear equations.

There are many books on the use of numerical methods for solving engineering problems and for modeling of engineering artifacts. In addition there are many styl

Linear and nonlinear systems of equations are the basis for many, if not most, of the models of phenomena in science and engineering, and their efficient numeri
