Manuel D. Salas, "A Shock-Fitting Primer " English | ISBN: 1439807582 | 2009 | 416 pages | PDF | 9 MB A defining feature of nonlinear hyperbolic equations is the occurrence of shock waves. While the popular shock-capturing methods are easy to implement, shock-fitting techniques provide the most accurate results. A Shock-Fitting Primer presents the proper numerical treatment of shock waves and other discontinuities. David Bressoud, "A Radical Approach to Real Analysis " English | ISBN: 0883857014 | | 336 pages | DJVU | 3 MB This book is an undergraduate introduction to real analysis. Teachers can use it as a textbook for an innovative course, or as a resource for a traditional course. Students who have been through a traditional course, but do not understand what real analysis is about and why it was created, will find answers to many of their questions in this book. Although this is not a history of analysis, the author returns to the roots of the subject to make it more comprehensible. The book begins with Fourier's introduction of trigonometric series and the problems they created for the mathematicians of the early nineteenth century. Cauchy's attempts to establish a firm foundation for calculus follow, and the author considers his failures and his successes. The book culminates with Dirichlet's proof of the validity of the Fourier series expansion and explores some of the counterintuitive results Riemann and Weierstrass were led to as a result of Dirichlet's proof. Mathematica ® commands and programs are included in the exercises. However, the reader may use any mathematical tool that has graphing capabilities, including the graphing calculator. David M. Bressoud, "A Radical Approach to Real Analysis Ed 2" English | ISBN: 0883857472 | 2006 | 336 pages | PDF | 15 MB In the second edition of this MAA classic, exploration continues to be an essential component. More than 60 new exercises have been added, and the chapters on infinite summations, differentiability and continuity, and convergence of infinite series have been reorganized to make it easier to identify the key ideas. A Radical Approach to Real Analysis is an introduction to real analysis, rooted in and informed by the historical issues that shaped its development. It can be used as a textbook, or as a resource for the instructor who prefers to teach a traditional course, or as a resource for the student who has been through a traditional course yet still does not understand what real analysis is about and why it was created. Brian Bolt, "A Mathematical Pandora's Box" English | ISBN: 0521446198 | | 128 pages | PDF | 3 MB A Mathematical Pandora's Box has been written in response to the success of Brian Bolt's earlier mathematical puzzle books. Through his own experience, the author has discovered a worldwide interest in these and similar puzzles. Not only do they stimulate creative thinking but they can also open up new areas of mathematics to the reader. This book contains 142 activities: in addition to puzzles, there are games, tricks, models and explanations of various phenomena. They range from number manipulation, through happy and amicable numbers, coin puzzles, picnicking bears and pentominoes, to building shapes with cubes. Some of the puzzles date from hundreds of years ago while many others are original, giving everyone something to think about. There is a detailed commentary at the end of the book, giving solutions and explanations, together with the occasional follow-up problem.
