Book Description
Mathematical Perspectives: Essays on Mathematics and its Historical Development is a collection of 13 biographical essays on the historical advances of science. This collection is originally meant to comprise an issue of the journal Historia Mathematica in honor of Professor Kurt R. Biermann's 60th birthday. This 12-chapter text includes essays on studies and commentaries on the problem of "figures of equal perimeter by various authors in antiquity, including Zenodorus, Theon, and Pappus. Other essays explore the comparison of the areas of polygons with equal perimeter; the concept of function; history of mathematics; the development of mathematical physics in France; and the history of Logicism and Formalism. The remaining chapters deal with essays on an early version of Gauss' Disquisitiones Arithmeticae, ideal numbers, a mathematical-philosophilica theory of probability, and historical examples of problem of number sequence interpolation. This book will be of value to mathematicians, historians, and researchers.

Book Description
Philippe Bénilan was a most original and charismatic mathematician who had a deep and decisive impact on the theory of Nonlinear Evolution Equations. Dedicated to him, Nonlinear Evolution Equations and Related Topics contains research papers written by highly distinguished mathematicians. They are all related to Philippe Benilan's work and reflect the present state of this most active field. The contributions cover a wide range of nonlinear and linear equations.

Book Description
Qu’il s’agisse d’applications en physique ou en mécanique, en médecine ou en biologie, mais aussi en économie, dans les médias et en marketing, ou encore dans le domaine des finances, la traduction phénoménologique du système étudié conduit très souvent à la résolution d’équations différentielles ou aux dérivées partielles. Incontestablement, ce sont les éléments finis qui ont bouleversé le monde de l’approximation numérique des équations aux dérivées partielles. Cet ouvrage est composé de deux parties : la première est un abrégé de cours portant sur les outils de base de l’analyse mathématique des équations aux dérivées partielles et la seconde contient des problèmes corrigés qui abordent l’approximation par éléments finis des formulations variationnelles des problèmes aux limites elliptiques. Des applications en mécanique des solides déformables, à la résistance des matériaux, en mécanique des fluides et en thermique ainsi que quelques problèmes non linéaires y sont présentés.Cet ouvrage s'adresse aux étudiants en sciences et techniques de l'ingénieur des universités et des grandes écoles.

Book Description
This self-tutorial offers a concise yet thorough introduction into the mathematical analysis of approximation methods for partial differential equation. A particular emphasis is put on finite element methods. The unique approach first summarizes and outlines the finite-element mathematics in general and then in the second and major part, formulates problem examples that clearly demonstrate the techniques of functional analysis via numerous and diverse exercises. The solutions of the problems are given directly afterwards. Using this approach, the author motivates and encourages the reader to actively acquire the knowledge of finite- element methods instead of passively absorbing the material as in most standard textbooks. This English edition is based on the Finite Element Methods for Engineering Sciences by Joel Chaskalovic.

Book Description
This book introduces the graduate mathematician and researcher to the effective use of nonstandard analysis (NSA). It provides a tutorial introduction to this modern theory of infinitesimals, followed by nine examples of applications, including complex analysis, stochastic differential equations, differential geometry, topology, probability, integration, and asymptotics. It ends with remarks on teaching with infinitesimals.

Book Description
This book describes Italian mathematics in the period between the two World Wars. It analyzes the development by focusing on both the interior and the external influences. Italian mathematics in that period was shaped by a colorful array of strong personalities who concentrated their efforts on a select number of fields and won international recognition and respect in an incredibly short time. Consequently, Italy was considered a third mathematical power after France and Germany.
