This book deals with the rise of mathematics in physical sciences, beginning with Galileo and Newton and extending to the present day. The book is divided into two parts. The first part gives a brief history of how mathematics was introduced into physics—despite its "unreasonable effectiveness" as famously pointed out by a distinguished physicist—and the criticisms it received from earlier thinkers. The second part takes a more philosophical approach and is intended to shed some light on that mysterious effectiveness. For this purpose, the author reviews the debate between classical philosophers on the existence of innate ideas that allow us to understand the world and also the philosophically based arguments for and against the use of mathematics in physical sciences. In this context, Schopenhauer’s conceptions of causality and matter are very pertinent, and their validity is revisited in light of modern physics. The final question addressed is whether the effectiveness of mathematics can be explained by its “existence” in an independent platonic realm, as Godel believed. Mathematics has been impressively successful in describing a wide variety of phenomena in Nature.

This book introduces undergraduate students of engineering and science to applied mathematics essential to the study of many problems. Topics are differential equations, power series, Laplace transforms, matrices and determinants, vector analysis, partial differential equations, complex variables, and numerical methods. Approximately, 160 examples and 1000 homework problems aid students in their study. This book presents mathematical topics using derivations rather than theorems and proofs. This textbook is uniquely qualified to apply mathematics to physical applications (spring-mass systems, electrical circuits, conduction, diffusion, etc.), in a manner that is efficient and understandable. MATLAB, as a common and useful software tool, has been integrated into the text primarily in matrix computations and numerical solution of differential equations. An Introduction to MATLAB has been added as a section in the Appendix and should help students who lack experience with the package.

The book is a continuation of Volume I with the same title. It provides different avenues to study algorithms. It also brings new techniques and methodologies to problem solving in computational sciences, engineering, scientific computing and medicine (imaging, radiation therapy) to mention a few. A plethora of algorithms are presented in a sound analytical way. The chapters are written independently of each other, so they can be understood without reading earlier chapters. But some knowledge of analysis, linear algebra, and some computing experience are required. The organization and content of the book cater to senior undergraduate, graduate students, researchers, practitioners, professionals, and academicians in the aforementioned disciplines. It can also be used as a reference book and includes numerous references and open problems. A new technique is developed to extend the convergence region and provide tighter error estimates of Newton’s Algorithm (NA) for solving generalized equations for Hilbert space- valued operators without additional conditions. The technique is very general, so it can be used to extend the applicability of other algorithms too.

В настоящее время нам известно, что содержание классической механики гораздо богаче, чем представлялось раньше. Вывод уравнений движения – центральная тема традиционных изложений механики – всего лишь начало. В этой новаторской книге акцент сделан на разработке общих методов изучения поведения классических систем вне зависимости от того, имеют они аналитическое решение или нет. В фокусе внимания авторов сам феномен движений, а для его исследования применяется компьютерное моделирование. Недавние открытия в области нелинейной динамики органично вплетены в текст, а не добавлены по завершении работы. Изучение таких явлений, как переход к хаотическому движению и нелинейные резонансы, помогают читателю освоить аналитический инструментарий, необходимый для их понимания. В этой книге мы используем для написания программ Scheme – вариант языка программирования Lisp, который также применяется на вводном курсе информатики в Массачусетском технологическом институте. Существует много хороших описаний Scheme, здесь мы приводим только краткое введение в этот язык программирования в приложении.

This book can be used in courses on mathematical modeling at the senior undergraduate or graduate level, or used as a reference for in-service scientists and engineers. The book aims to provide an overview of mathematical modeling through a panoramic view of applications of mathematics in science and technology. In each chapter, mathematical models are chosen from the physical, biological, social, economic, management, and engineering sciences. The models deal with different concepts, but have a common mathematical structure and bring out the unifying influence of mathematical modeling in different disciplines. Each subsequent chapter deals with mathematical modeling through one or more specific techniques. Thus, we consider mathematical modeling through ordinary differential equations of first and second order; systems of ordinary differential equations; difference equations; functional equations; integral, integro-differential, differential-difference, delay-differential, and partial differential equations; graph theory concepts; linear and nonlinear programming; dynamic programming, through calculus of variations; maximum principle; and the maximum entropy principle.
