Product Details
From the back cover: “Detailed statements of the standard theory of elliptic and parabolic operators make this treatment readable for engineers, students, and nonspecialists alike.
“The text’s first two chapters can be used for a single-semeter graduate course in variational inequalities or partial differential equations. The succeeding chapters—covering jets and cavities, variational problems with potentials, and free-boundary problems not in variational form—are more specialized and self-contained. Readers who have mastered chapters 1 and 2 will be able to conduct research on the problems explored in subsequent chapters. Bibliographic remarks conclude each chapter, along with several problems and exercises.”
