Applied Mathematics
Applied Mathematics by Gerald D. Mahan is a comprehensive textbook published by Springer US on September 17, 2012. This edition spans 368 pages and is presented in English, making it suitable for a graduate-level audience. The book serves as a resource for a year-long course in applied mathematics, tailored for scientists and engineers across various disciplines, including mathematics, physics, and engineering.
Readers will find that this textbook is based on lecture notes developed by the author during his teaching experience, addressing the gaps in existing materials that were deemed too introductory. The content aims to provide a deeper understanding of applied mathematics, reflecting a syllabus that, while different from traditional references, maintains a similar academic rigor. Topics covered include mathematical and computational methods relevant to science and engineering, making it a valuable addition for those engaged in materials science and technology.
Official synopsis Publisher
This volume is a textbook for a year-long graduate level course in All research universities have applied mathematics for scientists and engineers. such a course, which could be taught in different departments, such as mathematics, physics, or engineering. I volunteered to teach this course when I realized that my own research students did not learn much in this course at my university. Then I learned that the available textbooks were too introduc tory. While teaching this course without an assigned text, I wrote up my lecture notes and gave them to the students. This textbook is a result of that endeavor. When I took this course many, many, years ago, the primary references were the two volumes of P. M. Morse and H. Feshbach, Methods of Theoretical Physics (McGraw-Hill, 1953). The present text returns the contents to a similar level, although the syllabus is quite different than given in this venerable pair of books.
