商品描述
Scientific Computation has established itself as a stand-alone area of knowledge at the borderline between computer science and applied mathematics. Nonetheless, its interdisciplinary character cannot be denied: its methodologies are increasingly used in a wide variety of branches of science and engineering.
A Gentle Introduction to Scientific Computing intends to serve a very broad audience of college students across a variety of disciplines. It aims to expose its readers to some of the basic tools and techniques used in computational science, with a view to helping them understand what happens "behind the scenes" when simple tools such as solving equations, plotting and interpolation are used.
To make the book as practical as possible, the authors explore their subject both from a theoretical, mathematical perspective and from an implementation-driven, programming perspective.
Features
- Middle-ground approach between theory and implementation.
- Suitable reading for a broad range of students in STEM disciplines. Could be used as the primary text for a first course in scientific computing.
- Introduces mathematics majors, without any prior computer science exposure, to numerical methods.
- All mathematical knowledge needed beyond Calculus (together with the most widely used Calculus notation and concepts) is introduced in the text to make it self-contained.

商品描述(中文翻譯)
科學計算已經確立為一個獨立的知識領域，位於計算機科學與應用數學的邊界。然而，其跨學科的特性是無法否認的：其方法論在各種科學和工程領域中被越來越廣泛地使用。
《科學計算的溫和入門》旨在服務於來自各種學科的廣大大學生群體。它的目的是讓讀者接觸到計算科學中一些基本的工具和技術，幫助他們理解在使用解方程、繪圖和插值等簡單工具時，背後發生了什麼。
為了使這本書盡可能實用，作者從理論數學的角度和以實現為驅動的編程角度來探討他們的主題。
特色
- 理論與實現之間的中間路徑。
- 適合廣泛的STEM學科學生閱讀。可用作科學計算入門課程的主要教材。
- 向沒有任何計算機科學背景的數學專業學生介紹數值方法。
- 介紹了除了微積分之外所需的所有數學知識（連同最常用的微積分符號和概念），使其內容自成體系。

作者簡介
Dan Stanescu received his undergraduate degree in Aerospace Engineering from the Polytechnical Institute in Bucharest, Romania. He then pursued his graduate studies at McGill University and obtained his Ph.D. at Concordia University, both in Montreal, Canada. His initial fascination with modeling fluid flow led him to develop both frequency- and time-domain computational methods for the study of aircraft noise. His publications include work in aeroacoustics, spectral methods, stochastic processes and biomathematics. Upon joining the Mathematics Department at the University of Wyoming in 2003, he directed the Institute for Scientific Computing for six years and initiated an Interdisciplinary Computational Science Minor program, currently offered to interested students at both the undergraduate and graduate level. He has taught a wide range of courses in applied mathematics and has been developing and using the material included herein, during the last ten years, for a core class that is part of this Minor.
Long Lee is a Professor of Mathematics at the University of Wyoming in Laramie, USA. He received his Ph. D. in Applied Mathematics from the University of Washington in Seattle, USA. Before his Ph.D., he received a BS in Engineering and an MS in Geophysics.
His research interests are in the area of high-performance scientific computing and its applications. He has published papers in computational fluid dynamics, nonlinear waves, and image sciences. He expanded his research to infectious diseases and network modeling in recent years due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
His teaching interests are in the general area of scientific computing. In particular, he enjoys teaching numerical methods for engineering students. He has taught numerical methods, differential equations, and mathematical modeling, both undergraduate and graduate levels, at the University of Wyoming for more than fifteen years.

丹·斯坦斯庫（Dan Stanescu）在羅馬尼亞布加勒斯特的理工學院獲得航空工程學士學位，隨後在加拿大蒙特利爾的麥吉爾大學進行研究生學習，並在康考迪亞大學獲得博士學位。他最初對流體流動建模的著迷使他開發了頻域和時域計算方法，以研究飛機噪音。他的出版作品涵蓋了氣動聲學、頻譜方法、隨機過程和生物數學等領域。2003年加入懷俄明大學數學系後，他擔任科學計算研究所所長六年，並啟動了一個跨學科計算科學輔修課程，目前提供給有興趣的本科生和研究生。他教授了廣泛的應用數學課程，並在過去十年中開發和使用本書所包含的材料，這是該輔修課程的一部分。
羅恩·李（Long Lee）是美國懷俄明大學拉拉米的數學教授。他在美國西雅圖的華盛頓大學獲得應用數學博士學位。在攻讀博士學位之前，他獲得了工程學士學位和地球物理碩士學位。
他的研究興趣集中在高效能科學計算及其應用領域。他在計算流體力學、非線性波和影像科學方面發表了多篇論文。近年來，由於COVID-19疫情，他將研究擴展到傳染病和網絡建模。
他的教學興趣主要集中在科學計算的一般領域。特別是，他喜歡教授工程學生的數值方法。他在懷俄明大學教授數值方法、微分方程和數學建模，無論是本科生還是研究生課程，已有超過十五年的經驗。
