| Summary: |
"This book is designed as an advanced undergraduate or a first-year graduate course for students from various disciplines like Applied Mathematics, Physics and Engineering. The main purpose is on the one hand to train the students to appreciate the interplay between theory and modelling in problems arising in the applied sciences; on the other hand to give them a solid theoretical background for numerical methods, such as finite elements."--Jacket. |
