Riemann Problems and Jupyter Solutions
This book addresses an important class of mathematical problems (the Riemann problem) for first-order hyperbolic partial differential equations (PDEs), which arise when modeling wave propagation in applications such as fluid dynamics, traffic flow, acoustics, and elasticity. The solution of the Riemann problem captures essential information about these models and is the key ingredient in modern numerical methods for their solution. This book covers the fundamental ideas related to classical Riemann solutions, including their special structure and the types of waves that arise, as well as the ideas behind fast approximate solvers for the Riemann problem. The emphasis is on the general ideas, but each chapter delves into a particular application. Riemann Problems and Jupyter Solutions is available in electronic form as a collection of Jupyter notebooks that contain executable computer code and interactive figures and animations, allowing readers to grasp how the concepts presented are affected by important parameters and to experiment by varying those parameters themselves. The only interactive book focused entirely on the Riemann problem, it develops each concept in the context of a specific physical application, helping readers apply physical intuition in learning mathematical concepts. Graduate students and researchers working in the analysis and/or numerical solution of hyperbolic PDEs will find this book of interest. This includes mathematicians, as well as scientists and engineers, working on wave propagation problems. Educators interested in developing instructional materials using Jupyter notebooks will also find this book useful. The book is appropriate for courses in Numerical Methods for Hyperbolic PDEs and Analysis of Hyperbolic PDEs, and it can be a great supplement for courses in computational fluid dynamics, acoustics, and gas dynamics.
Encyclopedia of Geology
Encyclopedia of Geology, Second Edition presents in six volumes state-of-the-art reviews on the various aspects of geologic research, all of which have moved on considerably since the writing of the first edition. New areas of discussion include extinctions, origins of life, plate tectonics and its influence on faunal provinces, new types of mineral and hydrocarbon deposits, new methods of dating rocks, and geological processes. Users will find this to be a fundamental resource for teachers and students of geology, as well as researchers and non-geology professionals seeking up-to-date reviews of geologic research. Provides a comprehensive and accessible one-stop shop for information on the subject of geology, explaining methodologies and technical jargon used in the field Highlights connections between geology and other physical and biological sciences, tackling research problems that span multiple fields Fills a critical gap of information in a field that has seen significant progress in past years Presents an ideal reference for a wide range of scientists in earth and environmental areas of study
Solving Nonlinear Equations with Iterative Methods
This user-oriented guide describes state-of-the-art methods for nonlinear equations and shows, via algorithms in pseudocode and Julia with several examples, how to choose an appropriate iterative method for a given problem and write an efficient solver or apply one written by others. A sequel to the author’s Solving Nonlinear Equations with Newton’s Methods (SIAM, 2003), this book contains new material on pseudo-transient continuation, mixed-precision solvers, and Anderson acceleration. It is supported by a Julia package and a suite of Jupyter notebooks and includes examples of nonlinear problems from many disciplines. This book is will be useful to researchers who solve nonlinear equations, students in numerical analysis, and the Julia community.
