Introduction to scientific computing: twelve projects with MATLAB
Book Description
This book provides twelve computational projects that numerically solve problems from various applications, including Fluid Mechanics, Chemistry, Elasticity, Thermal Science, Computer-Aided Design, and Signal and Image Processing. For each project, the reader is guided through the typical steps of scientific computing, from the physical and mathematical description of the problem to numerical formulation and programming and finally to a critical discussion of numerical results. Considerable emphasis is placed on the practical issues of computational methods. The last section of each project contains the solutions to all proposed exercises and guides the reader in using the MATLAB scripts. The mathematical framework provides a fundamental foundation in the numerical analysis of partial differential equations and primary discretization techniques (for example, finite differences, finite elements, spectral methods, and wavelets).
The book is primarily intended as a graduate-level text in applied mathematics, but engineering or physical sciences students may also use it. It will also be a valuable reference for researchers and practicing engineers.
