โœฆ Synopsis


Since publication of the first edition over a decade ago, Greenโ€™s Functions with Applications has provided applied scientists and engineers with a systematic approach to the various methods available for deriving a Greenโ€™s function. This fully revised Second Edition retains the same purpose, but has been meticulously updated to reflect the current state of the art. The book opens with necessary background information: a new chapter on the historical development of the Greenโ€™s function, coverage of the Fourier and Laplace transforms, a discussion of the classical special functions of Bessel functions and Legendre polynomials, and a review of the Dirac delta function. The text then presents Greenโ€™s functions for each class of differential equation (ordinary differential, wave, heat, and Helmholtz equations) according to the number of spatial dimensions and the geometry of the domain. Detailing step-by-step methods for finding and computing Greenโ€™s functions, each chapter contains a special section devoted to topics where Greenโ€™s functions particularly are useful. For example, in the case of the wave equation, Greenโ€™s functions are beneficial in describing diffraction and waves. To aid readers in developing practical skills for finding Greenโ€™s functions, worked examples, problem sets, and illustrations from acoustics, applied mechanics, antennas, and the stability of fluids and plasmas are featured throughout the text. A new chapter on numerical methods closes the book. Included solutions and hundreds of references to the literature on the construction and use of Green's functions make Greenโ€™s Functions with Applications, Second Edition a valuable sourcebook for practitioners as well as graduate students in the sciences and engineering.

Green's Functions are heavily emphasized in graduate programs in engineering, applied math and physics. They're a useful way in solving many differential equation related problems in many fields. Unfortunately, for many (like me), the Green's Function (and it's uses) seemed restricted to 'textbook'

Since its introduction in 1828, using Green's functions has become a fundamental mathematical technique for solving boundary value problems. Most treatments, however, focus on its theory and classical applications in physics rather than the practical means of finding Green's functions for applicatio
