Applied Partial Differential Equations

A vibrant field of study, partial differential equations arise in mathematical models whose dependent variables change continuously as functions of several independent variables (often space and time). Their power lies in their universality: there is a huge and ever-growing range of real-world problems to which they can be applied, from fluid mechanics and electromagnetism to probability and finance. This book is a lively and well-written guide to both the theory and applications of PDEs. It examines such questions as the well-posedness of a PDE problem and the conditions under which solutions change little with small changes in input. It also examines the problem of establishing the accuracy of a numerical solution to a PDE, an increasingly important question given the power of new numerical methods and software.

Applied Solid Mechanics (Cambridge Texts in Applied Mathematics, Series Number 43)

The world around us, natural or man-made, is built and held together by solid materials. Understanding their behaviour is the task of solid mechanics, which is in turn applied to many areas, from earthquake mechanics to industry, construction to biomechanics. The variety of materials (metals, rocks, glasses, sand, flesh and bone) and their properties (porosity, viscosity, elasticity, plasticity) is reflected by the concepts and techniques needed to understand them: a rich mixture of mathematics, physics and experiment. These are all combined in this unique book, based on years of experience in research and teaching. Starting from the simplest situations, models of increasing sophistication are derived and applied. The emphasis is on problem-solving and building intuition, rather than a technical presentation of theory. The text is complemented by over 100 carefully-chosen exercises, making this an ideal companion for students taking advanced courses, or those undertaking research in this or related disciplines.
