Nonlinear science Books
Cambridge University Press An Introduction to Nonlinear Analysis
Book SynopsisThe techniques used to solve non-linear problems differ greatly from those dealing with linear features. Deriving all the necessary theorems from first principles, this 2005 textbook should give upper undergraduates and graduate students a thorough understanding using as little background material as possible.Trade ReviewReview of the hardback: '… presents an introduction to critical point theory addressed to students with a modest background in Lebesgue integration and linear functional analysis. Many important methods from nonlinear analysis are introduced in a problem oriented way … well written … should be present in the library of any researcher interested in Lévy processes and Lie groups.' Zentralblatt MATHTable of Contents1. Extrema; 2. Critical points; 3. Boundary value problems; 4. Saddle points; 5. Calculus of variations; 6. Degree theory; 7. Conditional extrema; 8. Minimax methods; 9. Jumping nonlinearities; 10. Higher dimensions.

Cambridge University Press Heat Transfer
Book SynopsisProviding engineers with the tools to solve real-world heat transfer problems, this textbook includes advanced topics not covered in other books on the subject. Examples are complex and timely problems that are inherently interesting. It integrates Maple, MATLAB®, FEHT and Engineering Equation Solver (EES) directly with the heat transfer material.Trade ReviewReview of the hardback: '… this book significantly raises the bar for heat transfer text books. Further, the integration of theory with computational tools makes the book of high interest at the professional level. Readers are encouraged to go to the website and explore this book and the supporting materials in depth … a major contribution to education in the field of heat transfer.' Journal of Heat Transfer EngineeringTable of Contents1. One-dimensional, steady-state conduction; 2. Two-dimensional, steady-state conduction; 3. Transient conduction; 4. External forced convection; 5. Internal forced convection; 6. Natural convection; 7. Boiling and condensation; 8. Heat exchangers; 9. Mass transfer; 10. Radiation.
