Sommario/riassunto

The fundamental solutions (FS) satisfy the governing equations in a solution domain S, and then the numerical solutions can be found from the exterior and the interior boundary conditions on S. The resource nodes of FS are chosen outside S, distinctly from the case of the boundary element method (BEM). This method is called the method of fundamental solutions (MFS), which originated from Kupradze in 1963. The Laplace and the Helmholtz equations are studied in detail, and biharmonic equations and the Cauchy-Navier equation of linear elastostatics are also discussed. Moreover, better choices of source nodes are explored. The simplicity of numerical algorithms and high accuracy of numerical solutions are two remarkable advantages of the MFS. However, the ill-conditioning of the MFS is notorious, and the condition number (Cond) grows exponentially via the number of the unknowns used. In this book, the numerical algorithms are introduced and their characteristics are addressed. The main efforts are made to establish the theoretical analysis in errors and stability. The strict analysis (as well as choices of source nodes) in this book has provided the solid theoretical basis of the MFS, to grant it to become an effective and competent numerical method for partial differential equations (PDE). Based on some of our works published as journal papers, this book presents essential and important elements of the MFS. It is intended for researchers, graduated students, university students, computational experts, mathematicians and engineers.

Sommario/riassunto

This book describes the state of the art of pediatric complex care, sharing the authors' decades of experience in an academic health center to illustrate points. The authors are pediatric generalist and subspecialist providers, among others, who care for children with medical complexity in a Pediatric Complex Care program. Children with medical complexity (CMC) are a small yet impactful pediatric population, a subset of children with special healthcare needs that include multi-system, non-categorical, chronic conditions, high resource and technology dependencies, medical fragility, and functional impairments. CMC do not fit into traditional systems of care. They require the continuous collaboration of pediatric subspecialists, community and public health partners, and family caregivers. The field of Pediatric Complex Care is rapidly evolving, yet lacks a well-prepared workforce built on clear educational competencies and clinical guidelines. In this compact volume, the authors review models of care for CMC, and how these models intersect with larger public health systems, dependent on collaborative networks of community-based and family partnerships. They explore ethical considerations, including implications for policy and practice. Among the topics covered are: The Specialty and Scope of Complex Care Pediatrics Ethical Considerations in the Care of Children with Medical Complexity Implications for Policy and Practice Healthcare Delivery for Children with Medical Complexity: The State of the Art and Future Directions is an essential resource for all medical professionals who care for CMC, public policy makers, medical educators, healthcare leaders, and community partners and stakeholders.
