Nonlinear Waves and Diffusion Processes. This item is unavailable.Nonlinear Waves and Diffusion Processes

Nonlinear analysis has become an indispensable tool in the exploration of a wide range of physical phenomena. This book is devoted to transformation techniques, asymptotic analysis and symbolic and numerical computations of nonlinear wave propagation and diffusion processes. Each paper discusses a nonlinear problem in detail and depth so as to provide the reader with impetus to vigorously pursue research in nonlinear waves and diffusion.

The applied mathematicians, mathematical physicists, engineers and post-graduate students will find this volume extremely useful as it depicits a comprehensive picture of nonlinear science with its tremendous range of applications.
