An Introduction to Numerical Methods for the Physical Sciences, Paperback / softback Book

An Introduction to Numerical Methods for the Physical Sciences Paperback / softback

Part of the Synthesis Lectures on Engineering, Science, and Technology series

Paperback / softback

Description

There is only a very limited number of physical systems that can be exactly described in terms of simple analytic functions.

There are, however, a vast range of problems which are amenable to a computational approach.

This book provides a concise, self-contained introduction to the basic numerical and analytic techniques, which form the foundations of the algorithms commonly employed to give a quantitative description of systems of genuine physical interest.

The methods developed are applied to representative problems from classical and quantum physics.
