Computational Partial Differential Equations: Numerical Methods and Diffpack Programming (Lecture Notes in Computational Science and Engineering, 2)
Computational Partial Differential Equations Numerical Methods and Diffpack Programming - Lecture Notes in Computational Science and Engineering, 2 Author:Hans Petter Langtangen The target audience of this book is students and researchers in computational sciences who need to develop computer codes for solving partial differential equations. The exposition is focused on numerics and software related to mathematical models in solid and fluid mechanics. The book teaches finite element methods, and basic finite difference ... more »methods from a computational point of view. The main emphasis regards development of flexible computer programs, using the numerical library Diffpack. The application of Diffpack is explained in detail for problems including model equations in applied mathematics, heat transfer, elasticity, and viscous fluid flow. Diffpack is a modern software development environment based on C++ and object-oriented programming. All the program examples, as well as a test version of Diffpack, are available for free over the Internet.« less
