  • Uncertain Input Data Problems and the Worst Scenario Method

    by Ivan Hlavacek, Jan Chleboun, Ivo Babuska, Jan Achenbach ...
    Series Book 46 - North-Holland Series in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics
    This book deals with the impact of uncertainty in input data on the outputs of mathematical models. Uncertain inputs as scalars, tensors, functions, or domain boundaries are considered. In practical terms, material parameters or constitutive laws, for instance, are uncertain, and quantities as local temperature, local mechanical stress, or local displacement are monitored. The goal of the worst ... Read more

  • Probability Theory

    The Logic of Science

    by E. T. Jaynes ...
    The standard rules of probability can be interpreted as uniquely valid principles in logic. In this book, E. T. Jaynes dispels the imaginary distinction between 'probability theory' and 'statistical inference', leaving a logical unity and simplicity, which provides greater technical power and flexibility in applications. This book goes beyond the conventional mathematics of probability theory, ... Read more

  • Exploring Monte Carlo Methods

    by William L. Dunn, J. Kenneth Shultis ...
    Exploring Monte Carlo Methods is a basic text that describes the numerical methods that have come to be known as "Monte Carlo." The book treats the subject generically through the first eight chapters and, thus, should be of use to anyone who wants to learn to use Monte Carlo. The next two chapters focus on applications in nuclear engineering, which are illustrative of uses in other fields. Five ... Read more

  • Introduction to Coalgebra

    Towards Mathematics of States and Observation

    by Bart Jacobs ...
    Series Book 59 - Cambridge Tracts in Theoretical Computer Science
    The area of coalgebra has emerged within theoretical computer science with a unifying claim: to be the mathematics of computational dynamics. It combines ideas from the theory of dynamical systems and from the theory of state-based computation. Although still in its infancy, it is an active area of research that generates wide interest. Written by one of the founders of the field, this book acts ... Read more

  • Pseudodifferential Equations Over Non-Archimedean Spaces

    by W. A. Zúñiga-Galindo ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    Focusing on p-adic and adelic analogues of pseudodifferential equations, this monograph presents a very general theory of parabolic-type equations and their Markov processes motivated by their connection with models of complex hierarchic systems. The Gelfand-Shilov method for constructing fundamental solutions using local zeta functions is developed in a p-adic setting and several particular ... Read more

  • Antibiotics

    The Perfect Storm

    by David M. Shlaes ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Antibiotics are truly miracle drugs. As a class, they are one of the only ones that actually cure disease as opposed to most drugs that only help relieve symptoms or control disease. Since bacteria that cause serious disease in humans are becoming more and more resistant to the antibiotics we have today, and because they will ultimately become resistant to any antibiotic that we use for treatment ...
