This self-contained text benefits from a spiral structure that regularly revisits the general topics of graphics, symbolic computation, and numerical simulation with increasing intricacy at each turn. The text is built around a large number of computer algebra worksheets or \"recipes\" that have been designed using MAPLE to provide tools for problem solving and to stimulate critical thinking. No prior knowledge of MAPLE is assumed. All relevant commands are introduced on a need-to-know basis and are indexed for easy reference. Each recipe is associated with a scientific model or method and an interesting or amusing story designed to both entertain and enhance concept comprehension and retention.   Aimed at third- and fourth-year undergraduates in science and engineering, the text contains numerous examples in disciplines that will challenge students progressing in mathematics, physics, engineering, game theory, and physical chemistry. Computer Algebra Recipes: An Advanced Guide to Mathematical Modeling can serve as an effective computational science text, with a set of problems following each section of recipes to enable readers to apply and confirm their understanding. The book may also be used as a reference, for self-study, or as the basis of an on-line course.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":50790669123857,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50790669844753,"sku":"GOR014074193","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52433214112017,"sku":"NLS9780387257686","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0387257683.jpg?v=1751453190"},{"product_id":"computer-algebra-recipes-for-mathematical-physics-book-richard-h-enns-9780817632236","title":"Computer Algebra Recipes for Mathematical Physics","description":"Over two hundred novel and innovative computer algebra worksheets or \"recipes\" will enable readers in engineering, physics, and mathematics to easily and rapidly solve and explore most problems they encounter in their mathematical physics studies.

Richard Feyn- man, Nobel Laureate in physics (1965), reminds us in a wonderful quote that The test of all knowledge is experiment. Experiment is the sole judge of sci- entific truth.  1 It is because nonlinear physics can be so profoundly counter- intuitive that these laboratory investigations are so important. This manual is designed to be used with the text Nonlinear Physics with Maple for Scientists and Engineers. Understanding is enhanced when experiments are used to check so please attempt as many of the activities as you can. As you perform theory, these activities, we hope that you will be amazed and startled by strange behav- ior, intrigued and terrorized by new ideas, and be able to amaze your friends as you relate your strange sightings  Remember that imagination is just as impor- tant as knowledge, so exercise yours whenever possible. But please be careful, as nonlinear activities can be addicting, can provide fond memories, and can awaken an interest that lasts a lifetime. Although it has been said that a rose by any other name is still a rose, (with apologies to Shakespeare) the authors of this laboratory manual have, in an endeavor to encourage the use of these nonlinear investigations, called them experimental activities rather than experiments. A number of design innovations have been introduced: A.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52401642799377,"sku":"NLS9780817638412","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780817638412.jpg?v=1758755350"},{"product_id":"nonlinear-phenomena-in-physics-and-biology-book-richard-h-enns-9781468441086","title":"Nonlinear Phenomena in Physics and Biology","description":"The Advanced Study Institute (ASI) on Nonlinear Phenomena-in Physics and Biology was held at the Banff Centre, Banff, Alberta, Canada, from 17 - 29 August, 1980. The Institute was made possible through funding by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (who sup- plied the major portion of the financial aid), the National Research and Engineering Council of Canada, and Simon Fraser University. The availability of the Banff Centre was made possible through the co- sponsorship (with NATO) of the ASI by the Canadian Association of Physicists. 12 invited lecturers and 82 other participants attended the Institute. Except for two lectures on nonlinear waves by Norman Zabusky, which were omitted because it was felt that they already had been exhaustively treated in the available literature, this volume contains the entire text of the invited lectures. In addition, short reports on some of the contributed talks have also been included. The rationale for the ASI and this resulting volume was that many of the hardest problems and most interesting phenomena being studied by scientists today ar.e nonlinear in nature. The nonlinear models involved often span several different disciplines, a simple example being the Volterra-type model in population dynamics which has its analogue in nonlinear optics and plasma physics (the 3-wave problem), in the discussion of the social behavior of animals, and in biological competition and selection at the molecular level.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52410521878801,"sku":"NLS9781468441086","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781468441086.jpg?v=1758778463"},{"product_id":"nonlinear-physics-with-maple-for-scientists-and-engineers-book-richard-h-enns-9780817641191","title":"Nonlinear Physics with Maple for Scientists and Engineers","description":"Philosophy of the Text This text presents an introductory survey of the basic concepts and applied mathematical methods of nonlinear science as well as an introduction to some simple related nonlinear experimental activities.

Not only can students and researchers work through mathematical models more efficiently and with fewer errors than with pencil and paper, they can also easily explore, both analytically and numerically, more complex and computationally intensive models.    Aimed at science and engineering undergraduates at the sophomore\/junior level, this introductory guide to the mathematical models of science is filled with examples from a wide variety of disciplines, including biology, economics, medicine, engineering, game theory, mathematics, physics, and chemistry. The topics are organized into the Appetizers dealing with graphical aspects, the Entrees concentrating on symbolic computation, and the Desserts illustrating numerical simulation.    The heart of the text is a large number of computer algebra recipes based on the Maple 10 software system. These have been designed not only to provide tools for problem solving, but also to stimulate the reader’s imagination. Associated with each recipe is a scientific model or method and an interesting or amusing story (accompanied with a thought-provoking quote) that leads the reader through the various steps of the recipe. Each section of recipes is followed by a set of problems that readers can use to check their understanding or to develop the topic further.    This text is the first of two volumes, the advanced guide, aimed at junior\/senior\/graduate level students, dealing with more advanced differential equation models.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52433523212561,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52433524064529,"sku":"NLS9780387257679","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780387257679.jpg?v=1759178257"},{"product_id":"nonlinear-physics-with-mathematica-for-scientists-and-engineers-book-richard-h-enns-9780817642235","title":"Nonlinear Physics with Mathematica for Scientists and Engineers","description":"Nonlinear physics continues to be an area of dynamic modern research, with applications to physics, engineering, chemistry, mathematics, computer science, biology, medicine and economics.
