The discussion of saddle-point problems is a highlight of the book and has been elaborated to include many more nonstandard applications. The chapter on applications in elasticity now contains a complete discussion of locking phenomena. The numerical solution of elliptic partial differential equations is an important application of finite elements and the author discusses this subject comprehensively. These equations are treated as variational problems for which the Sobolev spaces are the right framework. Graduate students who do not necessarily have any particular background in differential equations, but require an introduction to finite element methods will find this text invaluable. Specifically, the chapter on finite elements in solid mechanics provides a bridge between mathematics and engineering.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50352365404433,"sku":"CIN0521705185A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50922720428305,"sku":"CIN0521705185VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50971332837649,"sku":"GOR009981557","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51003215741201,"sku":"NIN9780521705189","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51080800764177,"sku":"CIN0521705185G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52659506217233,"sku":"NLS9780521705189","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0521705185.jpg?v=1786119043"},{"product_id":"advances-in-multi-grid-methods-book-dietrich-braess-9783528080853","title":"Advances in Multi-Grid Methods","description":"During the week of December 8-13, 1984, a conference on Multi-Grid Methods was held at the Mathematisches Forschungs- institut (Mathematical Research Institute) in Oberwolfach. The conference was suggested by the GAMM-Committee Effiziente numerische Verfahren fUr partielle Differentialgleichungen. We were pleased to have 42 participants from 12 countries. These proceedings contain some contributions to the confe- rence. The centre of interest in the more theoretical contri- butions were exact convergence proofs for multi-grid method. Here, the theoretical foundation for the application of the method to the Stokes equations, the biharmonic equation in its formulation as a mixed finite element problem and other more involved problems were investigated. Moreover, improvements and new attacks for getting quantitative results on convergence rates were reported. Another series of contributions was concerned with the de- velopment of highly efficient and fast algorithms for various partial differential equations. Also in this framework, the Stokes and the biharmonic equations were investigated. Other lectures treated problems from fluid mechanics (as Navier- Stokes and Euler equations), the dam-problem and eigenvalue problems. The editors would like to thank Professor M. Barner, the director of Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach for making this conference possible. D. Braess, Bochum W. Hackbusch, Kiel U. Trottenberg, St. Augustin v CONTENTS O.

Chebyshev in the last century, and the entire theory of uniform approxima- tion is strongly connected with his name. By making use of his ideas, the theories of best uniform approximation by rational functions and by polynomials were developed over the years in an almost unified framework. The difference between linear and rational approximation and its implications first became apparent in the 1960's. At roughly the same time other approaches to nonlinear approximation were also developed. The use of new tools, such as nonlinear functional analysis and topological methods, showed that linearization is not sufficient for a complete treatment of nonlinear families. In particular, the application of global analysis and the consideration of flows on the family of approximating functions intro- duced ideas which were previously unknown in approximation theory. These were and still are important in many branches of analysis. On the other hand, methods developed for nonlinear approximation prob- lems can often be successfully applied to problems which belong to or arise from linear approximation. An important example is the solution of moment problems via rational approximation. Best quadrature formulae or the search for best linear spaces often leads to the consideration of spline functions with free nodes. The most famous problem of this kind, namely best interpolation by poly- nomials, is treated in the appendix of this book.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52617949184273,"sku":"NLS9783642648830","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783642648830.jpg?v=1786443554"},{"product_id":"numerical-methods-in-approximation-theory-book-dietrich-braess-9783764327460","title":"Numerical Methods in Approximation Theory","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52688281829649,"sku":"NLS9783764327460","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52762242908433,"sku":"NIN9783764327460","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783764327460.jpg?v=1762332512"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-au\/collections\/author-books-by-dietrich-braess.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
