  • Thermodynamics

    A Dynamical Systems Approach

    by Wassim M. Haddad, VijaySekhar Chellaboina, Sergey G. Nersesov ...
    Series series Princeton Series in Applied Mathematics
    This book places thermodynamics on a system-theoretic foundation so as to harmonize it with classical mechanics. Using the highest standards of exposition and rigor, the authors develop a novel formulation of thermodynamics that can be viewed as a moderate-sized system theory as compared to statistical thermodynamics. This middle-ground theory involves deterministic large-scale dynamical system ... Read more

  • The Finite Element Method

    An Introduction with Partial Differential Equations

    by A. J. Davies ...
    The finite element method is a technique for solving problems in applied science and engineering. The essence of this book is the application of the finite element method to the solution of boundary and initial-value problems posed in terms of partial differential equations. The method is developed for the solution of Poisson's equation, in a weighted-residual context, and then proceeds to time ... Read more
