Description
Multigrid presents both an elementary introduction to multigrid methods for solving partial differential equations and
a contemporary survey of advanced multigrid techniques and real-life applications.
Multigrid methods are invaluable to researchers
in scientific disciplines including physics, chemistry, meteorology, fluid and continuum mechanics, geology, biology, and all engineering
disciplines. They are also becoming increasingly important in economics and financial mathematics.
Readers are presented with an invaluable
summary covering 25 years of practical experience acquired by the multigrid research group at the Germany National Research Center for
Information Technology. The book presents both practical and theoretical points of view.
Audience:
Students and researchers in mathematics, engineering, physics, chemistry, meteorology, scientific computing, and computer science.
