  • Kernel functions and differential equations

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 4
    • English

  • Philosophy of Technology and Engineering Sciences

    • 1st Edition
    • English
    The Handbook Philosophy of Technology and Engineering Sciences addresses numerous issues in the emerging field of the philosophy of those sciences that are involved in the technological process of designing, developing and making of new technical artifacts and systems. These issues include the nature of design, of technological knowledge, and of technical artifacts, as well as the toolbox of engineers. Most of these have thus far not been analyzed in general philosophy of science, which has traditionally but inadequately regarded technology as mere applied science and focused on physics, biology, mathematics and the social sciences.

  • Advanced Mathematical Tools for Automatic Control Engineers: Volume 2

    Stochastic Systems
    • 1st Edition
    • Alexander S. Poznyak
    • English
    Advanced Mathematical Tools for Automatic Control Engineers, Volume 2: Stochastic Techniques provides comprehensive discussions on statistical tools for control engineers. The book is divided into four main parts. Part I discusses the fundamentals of probability theory, covering probability spaces, random variables, mathematical expectation, inequalities, and characteristic functions. Part II addresses discrete time processes, including the concepts of random sequences, martingales, and limit theorems. Part III covers continuous time stochastic processes, namely Markov processes, stochastic integrals, and stochastic differential equations. Part IV presents applications of stochastic techniques for dynamic models and filtering, prediction, and smoothing problems. It also discusses the stochastic approximation method and the robust stochastic maximum principle.

  • Boundary Value Problems

    and Partial Differential Equations
    • 6th Edition
    • David L. Powers
    • English
    Boundary Value Problems, Sixth Edition, is the leading text on boundary value problems and Fourier series for professionals and students in engineering, science, and mathematics who work with partial differential equations. In this updated edition, author David Powers provides a thorough overview of solving boundary value problems involving partial differential equations by the methods of separation of variables. Additional techniques used include Laplace transform and numerical methods.The book contains nearly 900 exercises ranging in difficulty from basic drills to advanced problem-solving exercises.Professors and students agree that Powers is a master at creating examples and exercises that skillfully illustrate the techniques used to solve science and engineering problems.

  • Student Solutions Manual, Partial Differential Equations & Boundary Value Problems with Maple

  • Advances in Computers

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 77
    • Marvin Zelkowitz
    • English
    This is volume 77 of Advances in Computers. Since 1960, annual volumes are produced containing chapters by some of the leading experts in the field of computers today. For 50 years these volumes offer ideas and developments that are changing our society. This volume presents eight different topics covering many different aspects of computer science. A wide range of subjects are covered from insights into the different ways individuals can interact with electronic devices to how common law is adapting to and impacting on the Internet.

  • Handbook of Algebra

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 6
    • M. Hazewinkel
    • English
    Algebra, as we know it today, consists of many different ideas, concepts and results. A reasonable estimate of the number of these different items would be somewhere between 50,000 and 200,000. Many of these have been named and many more could (and perhaps should) have a name or a convenient designation. Even the nonspecialist is likely to encounter most of these, either somewhere in the literature, disguised as a definition or a theorem or to hear about them and feel the need for more information. If this happens, one should be able to find enough information in this Handbook to judge if it is worthwhile to pursue the quest. In addition to the primary information given in the Handbook, there are references to relevant articles, books or lecture notes to help the reader. An excellent index has been included which is extensive and not limited to definitions, theorems etc. The Handbook of Algebra will publish articles as they are received and thus the reader will find in this third volume articles from twelve different sections. The advantages of this scheme are two-fold: accepted articles will be published quickly and the outline of the Handbook can be allowed to evolve as the various volumes are published. A particularly important function of the Handbook is to provide professional mathematicians working in an area other than their own with sufficient information on the topic in question if and when it is needed.
