About this title

Synopsis

Wesseling (Delft U. of Technology) presents an introduction to the application of multigrid methods to elliptic and hyperbolic partial differential equations for graduate level students in applied mathematics, engineers, and physicists. With frequent reference to the literature, he emphasizes the formulation of algorithms, choice of smoothing methods and analysis, problems with discontinuous coefficients, details of Galerkin coarse grid approximation, and applications in computational fluid dynamics. This is a corrected reprint of a work that first appeared in 1992 (John Wiley & Sons, UK). Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

From the Publisher

Introduces the principles, techniques, applications and literature--both current and historical--of multigrid methods. Aimed at an audience with non-mathematical but computing-intensive disciplines and basic knowledge of analysis, partial differential equations and numerical mathematics, it is packed with helpful exercises, examples and illustrations.
