Download or read book Introduction to Numerical Analysis written by J. Stoer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 674 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the occasion of this new edition, the text was enlarged by several new sections. Two sections on B-splines and their computation were added to the chapter on spline functions: Due to their special properties, their flexibility, and the availability of well-tested programs for their computation, B-splines play an important role in many applications. Also, the authors followed suggestions by many readers to supplement the chapter on elimination methods with a section dealing with the solution of large sparse systems of linear equations. Even though such systems are usually solved by iterative methods, the realm of elimination methods has been widely extended due to powerful techniques for handling sparse matrices. We will explain some of these techniques in connection with the Cholesky algorithm for solving positive definite linear systems. The chapter on eigenvalue problems was enlarged by a section on the Lanczos algorithm; the sections on the LR and QR algorithm were rewritten and now contain a description of implicit shift techniques. In order to some extent take into account the progress in the area of ordinary differential equations, a new section on implicit differential equa tions and differential-algebraic systems was added, and the section on stiff differential equations was updated by describing further methods to solve such equations.

Download or read book Numerical Calculations Related to the Rf Properties of the Plasma Sheath written by John Milan Pavkovich and published by . This book was released on 1964 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many considerations of the rf properties of a finite plasma, the plasma is treated as a dielectric and the boundary conditions associated with an ordinary dielectric are applied. Although this approach works well at times, it is by no means a satisfactory approach to understanding the rf properties of the boundary. In this paper, a detailed rf theory of the sheath is presented. The complete collisionless Boltzmann equation is used to derive a linear integral equation for the rf electric field through the sheath. The analysis is one-dimensional. This integral equation is solved numerically for a semi-infinite uniform plasma bounded by a sheath defined by a parabolic dc potential. A Maxwellian distribution of velocities is assumed for all computations. The results show that it is reasonable to assume that the normal component of displacement is continuous but that extra waves are set up near the boundary which decay as one moves into the uniform plasma. These waves are somewhat like the cutoff waves excited in the neighborhood of a waveguide discontinuity and thus give rise to a sheath impedance. A pressure type theory is also presented. This theory is based on moments of the collisionless Boltzmann equation. The results do not agree very well with results of the more exact theory and thus it is concluded that this type of theory is rather unreliable. (Author).

Download or read book A Concise Introduction to Numerical Analysis written by A. C. Faul and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-10-24 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook provides an accessible and concise introduction to numerical analysis for upper undergraduate and beginning graduate students from various backgrounds. It was developed from the lecture notes of four successful courses on numerical analysis taught within the MPhil of Scientific Computing at the University of Cambridge. The book is easily accessible, even to those with limited knowledge of mathematics. Students will get a concise, but thorough introduction to numerical analysis. In addition the algorithmic principles are emphasized to encourage a deeper understanding of why an algorithm is suitable, and sometimes unsuitable, for a particular problem. A Concise Introduction to Numerical Analysis strikes a balance between being mathematically comprehensive, but not overwhelming with mathematical detail. In some places where further detail was felt to be out of scope of the book, the reader is referred to further reading. The book uses MATLAB® implementations to demonstrate the workings of the method and thus MATLAB's own implementations are avoided, unless they are used as building blocks of an algorithm. In some cases the listings are printed in the book, but all are available online on the book’s page at www.crcpress.com. Most implementations are in the form of functions returning the outcome of the algorithm. Also, examples for the use of the functions are given. Exercises are included in line with the text where appropriate, and each chapter ends with a selection of revision exercises. Solutions to odd-numbered exercises are also provided on the book’s page at www.crcpress.com. This textbook is also an ideal resource for graduate students coming from other subjects who will use numerical techniques extensively in their graduate studies.
