Nonlinear Wave Dynamics : Complexity and Simplicity, Hardcover by Engelbrekht, Iurii K.; Engelbrecht, Juri, ISBN 0792345088, ISBN-13 9780792345084, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US
Attempts to find a simpler viewpoint from which to examine wave motion as it results from the rules of continuum mechanics, with special attention paid to sources of nonlinearities. Complexities in mathematical modeling are demonstrated by examples including solitons, propagating instabilities, and waves in waveguides. Case studies show some unconventional approaches in order to explain the richness of nonlinear wave motion. Final chapters are of a more general nature, discussing nonlinearity, beauty, and complexity. All examples are cast into a general philosophical network of complexity and simplicity. Of interest to researchers and students involved with mathematical modeling of wave phenomena. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
