Our objective is to help young and also establiShed scientists and engineers to build the skills necessary to analyze equations that they encounter in their work. Our presentation is aimed at developing the insights and techniques that are most useful for attacking new problems. We do not emphasize special methods and tricks which work only for the classical transcendental functions; we do not dwell on equations whose exact solutions are known. The mathematical methods discussed in this book are known collectively as­ asymptotic and perturbative analysis. These are the most useful and powerful methods for finding approximate solutions to equations, but they are difficult to justify rigorously. Thus, we concentrate on the most fruitful aspect of applied analysis; namely, obtaining the answer. We stress care but not rigor. To explain our approach, we compare our goals with those of a freshman calculus course. A beginning calculus course is considered successful if the students have learned how to solve problems using calculus. 606 $aMathematical analysis 606 $aEngineering mathematics 606 $aEngineering$xData processing 606 $aMathematical physics 606 $aAnalysis 606 $aMathematical and Computational Engineering Applications 606 $aMathematical Methods in Physics 606 $aTheoretical, Mathematical and Computational Physics 615 0$aMathematical analysis. 615 0$aEngineering mathematics. 615 0$aEngineering$xData processing. 615 0$aMathematical physics. 615 14$aAnalysis. 615 24$aMathematical and Computational Engineering Applications. 615 24$aMathematical Methods in Physics. 615 24$aTheoretical, Mathematical and Computational Physics. 676 $a515 676 $a515.35 686 $a34E05$2msc 686 $a34A45$2msc 686 $a41A60$2msc 700 $aBender$b Carl M$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$021730 702 $aOrszag$b Steven A.$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910958987003321 996 $aAdvanced Mathematical Methods for Scientists and Engineers I$94412492 997 $aUNINA
