Analytical and Computational Methods in Scattering and Applied Mathematics

by Fadil Santosa (Editor), Ivar Stakgold (Editor)

Overview

Professor Ralph Kleinman was director of the Center for the Mathematics of Waves and held the UNIDEL Professorship of the University of Delaware. Before his death in 1998, he made major scientific contributions in the areas of electromagnetic scattering, wave propagation, and inverse problems. He was instrumental in bringing together the mathematic

Editorial Reviews

Twenty papers, most of which were presented at a November 1998 conference in honor of mathematician Ralph Kleinman, reflect Kleinman's interest in wave propagation, scattering theory, and inverse problems. The international set of contributors cover mathematical/engineering topics such as nondestructive evaluation, scattering theory, partial differential equations, and ship hydrodynamics. Methods used include rigorous analysis, computational schemes, asymptomatics, and numerical analysis. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
