Springer Heat Waves: 177 - Applied Mathematical Sciences

Explore advanced concepts in thermal motion with Heat Waves: 177 from the Applied Mathematical Sciences series by Springer. This specialized text provides a comprehensive account of theories regarding heat conduction where temperature travels as a wave with a finite speed. By examining various proposals that generalize Fourier's conduction law, the book addresses how to render the heat propagation equation in hyperbolic form. Readers will find a detailed survey of many theories proposed as candidates to describe these thermal processes. This volume is designed for those seeking a deep understanding of the physical and mathematical viewpoints behind heat wave propagation. It serves as a rigorous resource for students and professionals working within the fields of mathematics and engineering technology.
