Product Description: This introduction to the theory of Sobolev spaces and Hilbert space methods in partial differential equations is geared toward readers of modest mathematical backgrounds. It offers coherent, accessible demonstrations of the use of these techniques in developing the foundations of the theory of finite element approximations...read more

Product Description: Geared toward undergraduate and graduate students, this text extends applications of the finite element method from linear problems in elastic structures to a broad class of practical, nonlinear problems in continuum mechanics. It treats both theory and applications from a general and unifying point of view...read more

Product Description: This monograph is a mathematical study of steady-state motions of a spinning hyperelastic incompressible, homogenous and isotropic cylinder. So far there was very little quantitative information on this subject and no mathematical analysis...read more
