Teised raamatud teemal:
Elucidates the mathematical foundation of coordinate systems and their practical application to different branches of mathematics and natural and engineering sciences. Contains a thorough discussion of theory, and details applications taken from the fields of physics and geodesy, illustrated with examples. Treats related problems including previously unpublished numerical integration methods. Includes an extensive formulary consisting of some 40 tables on different types of coordinates, offering directly applicable information on important features in a unified notational system. For practitioners and students of science and engineering. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
