Introduction to Partial Differential Equations
(Springer, 2018)Partial differential equations (PDE) first appeared over 300 years ago, and the vast scope of the theory and applications that have since developed makes it challenging to give a reasonable introduction in a single ... -
Guide to Discrete Mathematics
(Springer, 2016)The objective of this book is to give the reader a flavor of discrete mathematics and its applications to the computing field. The goal is provide a broad and accessible guide to the fundamentals of discrete mathematics, ... -
Cryptography Made Simple
(Springer, 2016)This is a reworking of my earlier book “Cryptography: An Introduction” which has been available online for over a decade. In the intervening years there have been major advances and changes in the subject which have led ... -
Clinical Data Analysis on a Pocket Calculator
(Springer, 2016)The time that statistical analyses, including analysis of variance and regression analyses, were analyzed by statistical analysts has gone for good, thanks to the availability of user-friendly statistical software. The ... -
Brownian Motion, Martingales, and Stochastic Calculus
(Springer, 2016)This book originates from lecture notes for an introductory course on stochastic calculus taught as part of the master’s program in probability and statistics at Université Pierre et Marie Curie and then at Université ... -
A Primer on Scientific Programming with Python
(Springer, 2016)The aim of this book is to teach computer programming using examples from mathematics and the natural sciences. We have chosen to use the Python programming language because it combines remarkable expressive power with ... -
UML @ Classroom
(Springer, 2015)The challenges in today’s software development are diverse and go far beyond implementation tasks. They range from requirement specification over system design and implementation to maintenance and further adaptation ... -
Statistical Mechanics for Engineers
(Springer, 2015)The purpose of writing this book is to explain basic concepts of equilibrium statistical mechanics to the first year graduate students in engineering departments. Why should an engineer care about statistical ... -
Regression Modeling Strategies
(Springer, 2015)There are many books that are excellent sources of knowledge about individual statistical tools (survival models, general linear models, etc.), but the art of data analysis is about choosing and using multiple tools. In ... -
Particles and Nuclei
(Springer, 2015)Since the first German edition of this textbook in 1993, many extensions and corrections of the text have been added in every further edition. For the present seventh English edition, the text of several chapters and ... -
Introduction to Evolutionary Computing
(Springer, 2015)This is the second edition of our 2003 book. It is primarily a book for lecturers and graduate and undergraduate students. To this group the book offers a thorough introduction to evolutionary computing (EC), descriptions ... -
Fluid Dynamics
(Springer, 2015)The idea that guided the first French edition of the present book was to give to newcomers in Fluid Dynamics a presentation of the field that was anchored in Physics rather than in Applied Mathematics as it had been the ... -
Elementary Mechanics Using Matlab
(Springer, 2015)This book was developed as a textbook for use in the course “Introduction to mechanics” at the Department of Physics at the University of Oslo starting 2007. In this course we aimed at providing a seamless integration ... -
Polymer Synthesis: Theory and Practice
(Springer, 2013)The focus of the previous edition was on a broader description of the general methods and techniques for the synthesis, modifications and characterization of macromolecules. This was supplemented by selected and detailed ... -
Modelling Computing Systems
(Springer, 2013) -
Mathematical Physics
(Springer, 2013)Based on my own experience of teaching from the first edition, and more importantly based on the comments of the adopters and readers, I have made some significant changes to the new edition of the book: Part I is ... -
Group Theory Applied to Chemistry
(Springer, 2013)Symmetry is a general principle, which plays an important role in various areas of knowledge and perception, ranging from arts and aesthetics to natural sciences and mathematics. According to Barut,1 the symmetry of a ... -
Essential Astrophysics
(Springer, 2013)Essential Astrophysics is a book to learn or teach from, as well as a fundamental reference for anyone interested in astronomy and astrophysics. This unique volume can be used as a textbook, teaching guide, or reference ... -
Elementary Analysis
(Springer, 2013)A study of this book, and especially the exercises, should give the reader a thorough understanding of a few basic concepts in analysis such as continuity, convergence of sequences and series of numbers, and convergence ... -
Bayesian and Frequentist Regression Methods
(Springer, 2013)The past 25 years have seen great advances in both Bayesian and frequentist methods for data analysis. The most significant advance for the Bayesian approach has been the development of Markov chain Monte Carlo methods ...
