Industrial Numerical Analysis

Numerical analysis often provides useful insight into engineering and industrial problems. Using real examples drawn from the interaction of mathematicians with industry, this detailed volume illustrates the role of numerical analysis within the overall problem-solving process. The contributors carefully lay out the stages through which the actual analysis of the problem proceeded, and they explain the dead ends and failures as well as the successes. Written in conjunction with the Oxford Study Groups with Industry and the University Consortium for Industrial Numerical Analysis.
