Divided into two self-contained parts, this textbook is an introduction to modern real analysis. More than 350 exercises and 100 examples are integrated into the text to help clarify the theoretical considerations and the practical applications to differential geometry, Fourier series, differential equations, and other subjects. The first ......
This book discusses the foundations of the mathematical theory of finite element methods. The focus is on the concept of discrete stability and the exact sequence conforming elements and covers both coercive and non-coercive problems. Following a historical path of development, the author covers the Ritz and the Galerkin methods to Mikhlin's ......
In many dynamical systems, time delays arise because of the time it takes to measure system states, perceive and evaluate events, formulate decisions, and act on those decisions. The presence of delays may lead to undesirable outcomes; without an engineered design, the dynamics may underperform, oscillate, and even become unstable. How to study ......
This second edition provides an enhanced exposition of the long-overlooked Hadamard semidifferential calculus, first introduced in the 1920s by mathematicians Jacques Hadamard and Maurice Rene Frechet. Hadamard semidifferential calculus is possibly the largest family of nondifferentiable functions that retains all the features of classical ......
This textbook focuses on computational methods for inverse problems that are governed by partial differential equations (PDEs). The author considers deterministic and Bayesian formulations and highlights how traditional tools from deterministic inversion can be integrated into solution methods for Bayesian inverse problems. Advanced topics such as ......
This book addresses an important class of problems in the field of mathematical optimization- - those involving nonconvex and/or nonsmooth continuous functions. The authors introduce the theoretical foundations of nonconvex nonsmooth functions and discuss optimality conditions for optimization problems involving such functions. They also provide ......
Using material from many different sources in a systematic and unified way, this self-contained book provides both rigorous mathematical theory and practical numerical insights while developing a framework for determining the convergence rate of discrete approximations to optimal control problems. Elements of the framework include the reference ......
A Comprehensive Introduction to Modeling, Analysis, Simulation, Applications
Historically, optimal transport was about moving a pile of mortar efficiently or transferring the output of an array of steel mines optimally. This type of problem has been found to arise in many different fields of mathematics, science, and engineering-from fluid dynamics to many-electron physics to artificial intelligence-and in the last three ......
Composites have been studied for more than 150 years, and interest in their properties has been growing. This classic volume provides the foundations for understanding a broad range of composite properties, including electrical, magnetic, electromagnetic, elastic and viscoelastic, piezoelectric, thermal, fluid flow through porous materials, ......
