This
PDF is prepared by Gonzalo Galiano Casas and Esperanza Garcia Gonzalo from the
Department of Mathematics at Oviedo University. With a view to keeping things
compact, this document initiates with finite arithmetic and error analysis,
which forms the basis necessary for understanding the issue of numerical
precision and limitations. It considers methods for nonlinear equations,
interpolation, and approximation. Key sections on numerical differentiation and
integration give hands-on tools both for data analysis and the solution of
mathematical problems. It also covers systems of linear equations and
optimization, rounding it out for students and practitioners who might want to
apply the numerical methods through a variety of problems.

Numerical Topics in Fluid
Dynamics Computation!!! Peter Bastian Authored - This PDF covers advanced
numerical computation topics but puts more emphasis on the solution of
computational fluid dynamics. The book starts with the modeling of immiscible
fluid flow in a composite porous medium, thus laying down the basics for the
equations of multiphase fluid flow. It then provides fully implicit methods that
have been used to find the finite volume discretization of systems for complex
algebraic equations. Two important chapters are the parallelization methods that
result in higher productivity of computation and the UG framework used for
carrying out grid computations. Numerical results are then presented, which
allow deriving some conclusions concerning practical applications and
performance. The document will be particularly useful to researchers and
engineers studying computational fluid dynamics and related numerical modeling
problems.
Prof. L. Vandenberghe's lecture note is on applied numerical
computing but brings out the practical application aspect. The text covers most
areas of numerical linear algebra, nonlinear optimization nonlinear least
squares, introduction to floating-point numbers, and rounding errors that are to
be needed for understanding the issues of numerical precision. Examples are
drawn from signal and image processing, control systems, and machine learning,
among other areas, to indicate how these numerical methods are actually applied.
This resource aims to fill the gap between theory and practice by providing a
practical method for solving computational problems.
It gives an explanation
of all the different numerical methods of scientific computing. It starts with
the basics, which is Root Finding and Orthogonal Functions, solving equations
and analyzing functions. Finite Differences and Divided Differences included for
the needs in the process of numerical differentiation and interpolation.
Interpolation and Curve Fitting are given to outline estimation and modeling. It
also includes Z-Transforms and Summation Formulas for signal processing and
numerical summation. Quadrature Formulas and Ordinary Differential Equations are
explained for integration and the solution of differential equations. Partial
Differential Equations, Integral Equations, and Stability and Error Analysis
form the advanced topics for numerical methods coverage. Further, Monte Carlo
Techniques, Message Passing Interface, and Simulation Modeling are included to
point out methods for probabilistic simulations and parallel computing.
