Plane Networks and their Applications (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

[see attached for complete text] Concise, fast-paced text introducing the concepts and applications behind plane networks aimed at applied mathematicians, mechanical engineers, geodesists and graduate students. Presentation unfolds in a systematic, user-friendly style and goes from the basics to cutting-edge research. Key features include: * presentation of the basics required: fundamental material from linear algebra and differential equations; * examination of classical mathematical tools for analyzing discrete networks, followed by a well-developed theory, which is the continuous analogue of a discrete network; * numerous examples, illustrations,

Rezensionen

"This concise book renders an advanced exposition of the theory of error propagation in geodetic networks that are comprised of up to a few hundred nodes... The reviewed book constitutes a timely and valuable contribution to the theory of plane geodetic network analysis and design. An outstanding feature of this book is the extensive use it makes of the nowadays easy availability of sophisticated automatic computing tools." - Mathematical Reviews
