Level Set Methods and Fast Marching Methods Evolving Interfaces in Computational Geometry, Fluid Mechanics, Computer Vision, and Materials Science
“Level Set Methods and Fast Marching Methods Evolving Interfaces in Computational Geometry, Fluid Mechanics, Computer Vision, and Materials Science” by J. A. Sethian is a comprehensive text published by Cambridge University Press on June 13, 1999. This second edition spans 378 pages and is presented in English. The book introduces level set methods and fast marching methods, which are numerical techniques designed for analyzing and computing interface motion across various fields.
Readers will find an expanded collection of applications in this edition, covering topics such as physics, chemistry, fluid mechanics, and computer vision. The text emphasizes a shift from a geometric Lagrangian perspective to an Eulerian approach, focusing on initial value partial differential equations. This resource serves as a valuable reference for mathematicians, applied scientists, engineers, and computer graphic artists interested in the dynamics of moving boundaries and interfaces.
Official synopsis Publisher
This new edition of Professor Sethian’s successful text provides an introduction to level set methods and fast marching methods, which are powerful numerical techniques for analyzing and computing interface motion in a host of settings. They rely on a fundamental shift in how one views moving boundaries; rethinking the natural geometric Lagrangian perspective and exchanging it for an Eulerian, initial value partial differential equation perspective. For this edition, the collection of applications provided in the text has been expanded, including examples from physics, chemistry, fluid mechanics, combustion, image processing, material science, fabrication of microelectronic components, computer vision, computer-aided design, and optimal control theory. This book will be a useful resource for mathematicians, applied scientists, practising engineers, computer graphic artists, and anyone interested in the evolution of boundaries and interfaces.
