A Practical Guide to Pseudospectral Methods (Cambridge Monographs on Applied and Computational Mathematics) by Fornberg, Bengt (1998) Paperback

Cambridge Monographs on Applied and Computational Mathematics

by Bengt Fornberg

During the last two decades, pseudospectral methods have emerged as successful, and often superior, alternatives to better known computational procedures, such as finite difference and finite element methods of numerical solution, in several key application areas. These areas include computational fluid dynamics, wave motion, and weather forecasting. This book explains how, when and why this pseudospectral approach works. This book will be of interest to graduate students and scientists and engineers interested in applying pseudospectral methods to real problems.
