A study of the mathematics used in science is thus a sound intellectual investment for training as scientists and engineers. This first volume of two is centered on methods of solving partial differential equations and the special functions introduced. This text is based on a course offered at the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) and while produced for NPS needs, it will serve other universities well. | |

| 545 | |a Brett Borden in a Professor of Physics at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, California. Dr. Borden joined the faculty of NPS in 2002, after 22 years as a Research Physicist at The Naval Weapons Center. His research has centered on inverse problems with particular concentration in radar-based imaging and remote sensing. He is a fellow of the Institute of Physics, a member of the editorial board for the journal Inverse Problems, and received China Lake's TD award for Technical Achievement in 1995. James Luscombe is a Professor of Physics at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, California. Dr. Luscombe joined the faculty of NPS in 1994. He is active in theoretical condensed matter physics research, with more than 60 journal articles published and more than 100 conference presentations made. His current research interests are in the electronic and magnetic properties of nano-scale systems, quantum computing, and statistical physics for networked computers. | ||
