Numerical Methods for Two-Point Boundary-Value Problems

Numerical Methods for Two-Point Boundary-Value ProblemsElementary yet rigorous, this concise treatment explores practical numerical methods for solving very general two point boundary value problems. The approach is directed toward students with a knowledge of advanced calculus and basic numerical analysis as well as some background in ordinary differential equations and linear algebra. After an introductory chapter that covers some of the basic prerequisites, the text studies three techniques in detail:

and an expert on the subject of sundials and their curious history

making this text applicable to a wide variety of undergraduate and graduate courses

orbital change due to impulsive thrust

the time spent by Stradivari in making a violin

and quotient spaces

The first comprehensive introduction to information theory

straight line and close shell quilting

books on titanic disasters

It recounts an adventure undertaken by King Arthur’s famous nephew

open to endless interpretation

books on cuts

Considered lurid and shocking by mid-19th-century standards
