„Mathematics for Engineers I“ gehört zu einer vierbändigen Reihe und gibt eine Einführung in die Mathematik für Undergraduates, die ein Bachelor-Studium im Bereich Ingenieurwissenschaften aufgenommen haben. Band IV ergänzt den Calculus und die Lineare Algebra durch grundlegende numerische Verfahren und deren Anwendung auf praktische Fragestellungen. Die Reihe unterscheidet sich von traditionellen Texten dadurch, dass sie interaktiv ist und mit Hilfe des Computer-Algebra-Systems Mathematica die Berechnungen darstellt. Jedem Buch liegt eine CD bei, die die Rechenprogramme und den vollständigen Text in Mathemetica enthält. Den Studierenden eröffnet sich so die Möglichkeit, interaktiv die Vorlesungsmaterialien nachzuvollziehen und die Fragestellungen des Texts sowie der Beispiele mit Unterstützung von Mathematica zu lösen.

This book is part of a four-volume textbook on Engineering Mathematics for undergraduates. Volume III treats vector calculus and differential equations of higher order. The text uses Mathematica as a tool to discuss and to solve examples from mathematics. The basic use of this language is demonstrated by examples.
Mathematica for theoretical physics

- 20 heures de lecture
This second edition of Baumann's work demonstrates how to solve physical problems and understand theoretical concepts using Mathematica® for numeric and symbolic solutions. Readers can evaluate examples and modify calculations to suit similar problems. The edition is divided into two volumes: the first focuses on classical mechanics and nonlinear dynamics, essential for a regular mechanics course, while the second addresses electrodynamics, quantum mechanics, relativity, and fractals and fractional calculus. Enhanced with new examples and a more interactive format, this book serves as both a textbook and a reference for students and researchers. A brief glossary of terms and functions is included in the appendices, allowing readers to engage with the material dynamically. Gerd Baumann, a professor at the University of Ulm, Germany, is affiliated with the Mathematical Physics Division and has authored works on symmetry analysis in differential equations using Mathematica®. He is known for his invited talks and seminars on symbolic computing at various institutions, including TECHNISCHE UNIVERSITÄT MÜNCHEN (TUM).

Focusing on the diverse interactions among various ethnic groups in Southall, this study offers a fresh perspective on multicultural dynamics within a densely populated area of London. Gerd Baumann examines how these immigrant communities navigate their relationships with each other and engage with the dominant English culture, breaking from traditional single-community analyses to present a comprehensive view of social integration and cultural exchange.
The Multicultural Riddle
Rethinking National, Ethnic and Religious Identities

- 7 heures de lecture
Focusing on the quest for a multicultural society, this book delves into the complexities of justice and equality among diverse groups. It addresses the perspectives of those who advocate for a unified national culture, those rooted in ethnic identity, and those who see religion as central to their culture. By challenging traditional notions of national identity, ethnicity, and the influence of religion, it offers insights into solving the challenges posed by multiculturalism in the contemporary world.

This book serves as a comprehensive guide for utilizing Mathematica in the field of theoretical physics. It covers essential mathematical concepts and techniques while demonstrating how to apply them using Mathematica's powerful computational tools. The text includes practical examples and exercises, making it suitable for both students and professionals. By integrating theoretical principles with computational practice, it aims to enhance understanding and problem-solving skills in various areas of physics.
The first book to explicitly use Mathematica so as to allow researchers and students to more easily compute and solve almost any kind of differential equation using Lie's theory. Previously time-consuming and cumbersome calculations are now much more easily and quickly performed using the Mathematica computer algebra software. The material in this book, and on the accompanying CD-ROM, will be of interest to a broad group of scientists, mathematicians and engineers involved in dealing with symmetry analysis of differential equations. Each section of the book starts with a theoretical discussion of the material, then shows the application in connection with Mathematica. The cross-platform CD-ROM contains Mathematica (version 3.0) notebooks which allow users to directly interact with the code presented within the book. In addition, the author's proprietary "MathLie" software is included, so users can readily learn to use this powerful tool in regard to performing algebraic computations.
