Computational Physics: Problem Solving with Computers
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Landau, Rubin H. / Pez, Manuel J. / Bordeianu, Cristian C., PUBLISHER: Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, This second edition provides an even broader survey of the techniques of computational physics and science. It features new chapters on visualisation, wavelet analysis, and data compression, molecular dynamics, and computational fluid dynamics, an expanded treatment of Fourier analysis to incorporate wavelet analysis and filtering, broader coverage of partial differential equations to include fluid dynamics, realistic waves, and shock waves, as well as a more extensive treatment of computational biology and complex systems. From the reviews of the first edition: "Landau and Paez's book would be an excellent choice for a course on computational physics which emphasizes computational methods and programming." - American Journal of Physics
