β¦ Synopsis
The Cell Method (CM) is a computational tool that maintains critical multidimensional attributes of physical phenomena in analysis. This information is neglected in the differential formulations of the classical approaches of finite element, boundary element, finite volume, and finite difference analysis, often leading to numerical instabilities and spurious results. This book highlights the central theoretical concepts of the CM that preserve a more accurate and precise representation of the geometric and topological features of variables for practical problem solving. Important applications occur in fields such as electromagnetics, electrodynamics, solid mechanics and fluids. CM addresses non-locality in continuum mechanics, an especially important circumstance in modeling heterogeneous materials. Professional engineers and scientists, as well as graduate students, are offered: * A general overview of physics and its mathematical descriptions; * Guidance on how to build direct, discrete formulations; * Coverage of the governing equations of the CM, including nonlocality; * Explanations of the use of Tonti diagrams; and * References for further reading.

The interplay between computation and many areas of algebra is a natural phenomenon in view of the algorithmic character of the latter. The existence of inexpensive but powerful computational resources has enhanced these links by the opening up of many new areas of investigation in algebra.
<P>From the reviews: </P> <P>"... Many parts of the book can be read by anyone with a basic abstract algebra course... it was one of the author's intentions to equip students who are interested in computational problems with the necessary algebraic background in pure mathematics and to encourage the
