CRC Press Revival: Numerical Methods and Applications (1994) (CRC Press Revivals)

Product Description This book presents new original numerical methods that have been developed to the stage of concrete algorithms and successfully applied to practical problems in mathematical physics. The book discusses new methods for solving stiff systems of ordinary differential equations, stiff elliptic problems encountered in problems of composite material mechanics, Navier-Stokes systems, and nonstationary problems with discontinuous data. These methods allow natural paralleling of algorithms and will find many applications in vector and parallel computers. About the Author Professor Guri Marchuk has won wide ranging international recognition for his scientific activities. He was a foreign member of the Bulgarian, Czecho-Slovak, Finnish, Indian, Polish, and French Academies of Sciences; he is a honorary doctor of the Toulouse, Carlow, Dresden, Calcutta, Oregon, and Houston Universities, among others. He was awarded a Gold Medal for Services to Science and Humanity of the Czecho-Slovak Academy of Sciences, the A. Karpinskiy Medal and Prize (Germany), and an Order of the Commander of Knights of the French Legion of Honor.
