Informationen zum Autor Leonid Berlyand is Professor of Mathematics and a member of the Materials Research Institute at Pennsylvania State University. Alexander G. Kolpakov holds a long term Senior Marie Curie Fellow position at the University of Cassino, Italy. He is also a Professor at the Siberian State University of Telecommunications and Informatics, Novosibirsk, Russia. A. Novikov is Associate Professor of Mathematics at Pennsylvania State University. Klappentext In recent years the traditional subject of continuum mechanics has grown rapidly and many new techniques have emerged. This text provides a rigorous, yet accessible introduction to the basic concepts of the network approximation method and provides a unified approach for solving a wide variety of applied problems. As a unifying theme, the authors discuss in detail the transport problem in a system of bodies. They solve the problem of closely placed bodies using the new method of network approximation for PDE with discontinuous coefficients, developed in the 2000s by applied mathematicians in the USA and Russia. Intended for graduate students in applied mathematics and related fields such as physics, chemistry and engineering, the book is also a useful overview of the topic for researchers in these areas. Zusammenfassung This introductory text presents the state of the art in general framework approximation theory. Intended for graduate students in applied mathematics and related fields such as physics and engineering! it is also a useful overview of the topic for researchers in these areas.
