Partial differential equations

de W. Jäger

"As a satellite conference of the 1998 International Mathematical Congress and part of the celebration of the 650th anniversary of Charles University, the Partial Differential Equations Theory and Numerical Solution conference was held in Prague in August, 1998."--BOOK JACKET. "This volume comprises the Proceedings of that conference. In it, leading specialists on partial differential equations, calculus of variations, and numerical analysis present up-to-date results, applications, and advances in numerical methods in these fields. Conference organizers chose the contributors to bring together the scientists best able to present a complex view of problems, starting from the modeling, passing through the mathematical treatment, and ending with numerical realization. The applications discussed include fluid dynamics, semiconductor technology, image analysis, motion analysis, and optimal control."--BOOK JACKET. "This book should be of interest to applied and pure mathematicians, theoretical physicists, engineers, and graduate students and researchers in theory and applications of PDEs."--BOOK JACKET.
