{"product_id":"greens-functions-with-applications","title":"Green's Functions with Applications","description":"\u003cp\u003eSince publication of the first edition over a decade ago, \u003cb\u003eGreen’s Functions with Applications\u003c\/b\u003e has provided applied scientists and engineers with a systematic approach to the various methods available for deriving a Green’s function. This fully revised \u003cb\u003eSecond Edition\u003c\/b\u003e retains the same purpose, but has been meticulously updated to reflect the current state of the art. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book opens with necessary background information: a new chapter on the historical development of the Green’s function, coverage of the Fourier and Laplace transforms, a discussion of the classical special functions of Bessel functions and Legendre polynomials, and a review of the Dirac delta function. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe text then presents Green’s functions for each class of differential equation (ordinary differential, wave, heat, and Helmholtz equations) according to the number of spatial dimensions and the geometry of the domain. Detailing step-by-step methods for finding and computing Green’s functions, each chapter contains a special section devoted to topics where Green’s functions particularly are useful. For example, in the case of the wave equation, Green’s functions are beneficial in describing diffraction and waves. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo aid readers in developing practical skills for finding Green’s functions, worked examples, problem sets, and illustrations from acoustics, applied mechanics, antennas, and the stability of fluids and plasmas are featured throughout the text. A new chapter on numerical methods closes the book.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncluded solutions and hundreds of references to the literature on the construction and use of Green's functions make \u003cb\u003eGreen’s Functions with Applications, Second Edition\u003c\/b\u003e a valuable sourcebook for practitioners as well as graduate students in the sciences and engineering.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54224666558808,"sku":"9781482251029","price":217.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781482251029_3dce60c5-06e3-4a66-b9c0-4531b0cb8b12.jpg?v=1768024841","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/greens-functions-with-applications","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
