Spectral Methods

• Series: Scientific Computation
• Heidelberg, DE: Springer, 2006

Since the publication of "Spectral Methods in Fluid Dynamics" 1988, spectral methods have become firmly established as a mainstream tool for scientific and engineering computation. The authors of that book have incorporated into this new edition the many improvements in the algorithms and the theory of spectral methods that have been made since then. This latest book retains the tight integration between the theoretical and practical aspects of spectral methods, and the chapters are enhanced with material on the Galerkin with numerical integration version of spectral methods. The discussion of direct and iterative solution methods is also greatly expanded.

Keywords: Compressible Flows ; Fluid Dynamics ; Fourier Approximation ; Galerkin Approximation ; High-Order Methods ; Incompressible Flows ; Numerical Analysis ; Scientific Computing ; Spectral Algorithms ; Spectral Methods ; Spectral Multigrid Methods ; Stability

Note:

Written for: Graduate students, researchers, and engineers.
