Mathematical Models in the Applied Sciences - Paperback

by A. C. Fowler (Author), D. G. Crighton (Editor), M. J. Ablowitz (Editor)

This book presents a thorough grounding in the techniques of modeling, and proceeds to explore a range of continuum models from an impressive array of disciplines, including biology, chemical engineering, fluid and solid mechanics, geophysics, medicine, and physics. It assumes only a basic mathematical grounding in calculus and analysis and will provide a wealth of examples for students of mathematics, engineering, and the range of applied sciences.
