Implicit-explicit (IMEX) time discretization methods have proven to be highly effective for the numerical solution of a wide class of evolutionary partial differential equations (PDEs) across various contexts. These methods have become mainstream for solving evolutionary PDEs, particularly in the fields of hyperbolic and kinetic equations. The ......
Bose-Einstein condensation is a phase transition in which a fraction of particles of a boson gas condenses into the same quantum state known as the Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC). The aim of this book is to present a wide array of findings in the realm of BECs and on the nonlinear Schroedinger-type models that arise therein. The Defocusing ......
This informal introduction to computational fluid dynamics and practical guide to numerical simulation of transport phenomena covers the derivation of the governing equations, construction of finite element approximations, and qualitative properties of numerical solutions. A comprehensive review of stabilization techniques for convection-dominated ......

This is the first book that comprehensively addresses dynamics with inequalities. The author develops the theory and application of dynamical systems that incorporate some kind of hard inequality constraint, such as mechanical systems with impact; electrical circuits with diodes (as diodes permit current flow in only one direction); and social and ......
This book treats the numerical analysis of finite element computational fluid dynamics. Assuming minimal background, the text covers finite element methods; the derivation, behavior, analysis, and numerical analysis of Navier-Stokes equations; and turbulence and turbulence models used in simulations. Each chapter on theory is followed by a ......
