The Method of Intrinsic Scaling
Author: José Miguel UrbanoPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 354075931X
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 158
Book Description
This set of lectures, which had its origin in a mini course delivered at the Summer Program of IMPA (Rio de Janeiro), is an introduction to intrinsic scaling, a powerful method in the analysis of degenerate and singular PDEs.In the first part, the theory is presented from scratch for the model case of the degenerate p-Laplace equation. The second part deals with three applications of the theory to relevant models arising from flows in porous media and phase transitions.
Linear-Scaling Techniques in Computational Chemistry and Physics
Author: Robert ZaleśnyPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9048128536
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 522
Book Description
"Linear-Scaling Techniques in Computational Chemistry and Physics" summarizes recent progresses in linear-scaling techniques and their applications in chemistry and physics. In order to meet the needs of a broad community of chemists and physicists, the book focuses on recent advances that extended the scope of possible exploitations of the theory. The first chapter provides an overview of the present state of the linear-scaling methodologies and their applications, outlining hot topics in this field, and pointing to expected developments in the near future. This general introduction is then followed by several review chapters written by experts who substantially contributed to recent developments in this field. The purpose of this book is to review, in a systematic manner, recent developments in linear-scaling methods and their applications in computational chemistry and physics. Great emphasis is put on the theoretical aspects of linear-scaling methods. This book serves as a handbook for theoreticians, who are involved in the development of new efficient computational methods as well as for scientists, who are using the tools of computational chemistry and physics in their research.
Scaling and Uncertainty Analysis in Ecology

Grounded Theory for Qualitative Research
Author: Cathy UrquhartPublisher: SAGE
ISBN: 1446271587
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
Based on the author′s own wealth of experience this timely, engaging book helps first-time researchers to discover the excitement of grounded theory. Fresh, innovative and clear this book traces the history and development of grounded theory method, and examines how the method is evolving for new contexts today. It sets out the principles involved in using grounded theory and explains the process and theory associated with coding in grounded theory. The book introduces us to the practicalities of research design, theory building, coding and writing up and gives us the tools to tackle key questions: - What is grounded theory? - How do we code and theorise using grounded theory? - How do we write up a grounded theory study? This is an exciting new text for students and researchers across the social sciences who want to use grounded theory.
