Along with the general development of numerical methods in pure and applied to apply integral equations to geophysical modelling has sciences, the ability improved considerably within the last thirty years or so.
The aim of this book is to give a self-contained introduction to the mathe- matical analysis and physical explanations of some basic nonlinear wave phe- nomena.
In collaboration with the Contact Group Experimental Mechanics in The Netherlands and under the auspices of the Technological Institute of the Koninklijke Vlaamse Ingenieurs Vereniging (Royal Flemish Society of Engineers), the Department of Ap- plied Mechanics of the Koninklijk Instituut van Ingenieurs (Royal Institution of Engineers in The Netherlands) organised the second National Mechanics Congress in The Netherlands, on November 16-18, 1992.
A system may be studied by distinguishing its major components, characterizing the changes in them by differential equations that form their simplified representa- tions, and then interconnecting these representations to obtain a model of the original system.
This book contains 58 papers from among the 68 papers presented at the Fifth International Conference on Fibonacci Numbers and Their Applications which was held at the University of St.
On the occasion of the 150th anniversary of Sophus Lie, an International Work- shop "e;Modern Group Analysis: advanced analytical and computational methods in mathematical physics"e; has been organized in Acireale (Catania, Sicily, October 27- 31, 1992).
This International Conference on Clifford AlgebrfU and Their Application, in Math- ematical Phy,ic, is the third in a series of conferences on this theme, which started at the Univer,ity of Kent in Canterbury in 1985 and was continued at the Univer,iU de, Science, et Technique, du Languedoc in Montpellier in 1989.
In many ways the last decade has witnessed a surge of interest in the interplay between theoretical physics and some traditional areas of pure mathematics.
This volume contains the proceedings of the Colloquium "e;Analysis, Manifolds and Physics"e; organized in honour of Yvonne Choquet-Bruhat by her friends, collaborators and former students, on June 3, 4 and 5, 1992 in Paris.
This is the first publication which follows an agreement by Kluwer Publishers with the Caribbean Mathematics Foundation (CMF), to publish the proceedings of its mathematical activities.
This volume contains the proceedings of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on "e;Asymptotic-induced Numerical Methods for Partial Differ- ential Equations, Critical Parameters, and Domain Decomposition,"e; held at Beaune (France), May 25-28, 1992.
This volume provides a comprehensive review of the developments which have taken place during the last thirty years concerning the asymptotic properties of solutions of nonautonomous ordinary differential equations.
Integration in infinitely dimensional spaces (continual integration) is a powerful mathematical tool which is widely used in a number of fields of modern mathematics, such as analysis, the theory of differential and integral equations, probability theory and the theory of random processes.
This series presents some tools of applied mathematics in the areas of proba- bility theory, operator calculus, representation theory, and special functions used currently, and we expect more and more in the future, for solving problems in math- ematics, physics, and, now, computer science.
Integral representations of holomorphic functions play an important part in the classical theory of functions of one complex variable and in multidimensional com- plex analysis (in the later case, alongside with integration over the whole boundary aD of a domain D we frequently encounter integration over the Shilov boundary 5 = S(D)).
In the past few years there has been a fruitful exchange of expertise on the subject of partial differential equations (PDEs) between mathematicians from the People's Republic of China and the rest of the world.
The aim of this book is to develop a new approach which we called the hyper- geometric one to the theory of various integral transforms, convolutions, and their applications to solutions of integro-differential equations, operational calculus, and evaluation of integrals.
The numerous applications of optimal control theory have given an incentive to the development of approximate techniques aimed at the construction of control laws and the optimization of dynamical systems.
During the past two decades representations of noncompact Lie groups and Lie algebras have been studied extensively, and their application to other branches of mathematics and to physical sciences has increased enormously.
Two central problems in the pure theory of economic growth are analysed in this monograph: 1) the dynamic laws governing the economic growth processes, 2) the kinematic and geometric properties of the set of solutions to the dynamic systems.
These two volumes contain the proceedings of the Workshop on Transition, Turbulence and Combustion, sponsored by the Insti- tute for Computer Applications in Science and Engineering (ICASE) and the NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC), during June 7 to July 2, 1993.
It is probably true quite generally that in the history of human thinking the most fruitful developments frequently take place at those points where two different lines of thought meet.
