Bøker av Andrew J. (New York University) Majda

This book is a comprehensive introduction to the mathematical theory of vorticity and incompressible flow ranging from elementary introductory material to current research topics. The first half forms an introductory graduate course on vorticity and incompressible flow. The second half comprises a modern applied mathematics graduate course on the weak solution theory for incompressible flow.

The authors develop a systematic applied mathematics perspective on the problems associated with filtering complex turbulent systems. The book contains background material from filtering, turbulence theory and numerical analysis, making it suitable for graduate courses as well as for researchers in a range of disciplines where applied mathematics is required.
