We start with a fun puzzle in mathematics and mathematical methods. Moreover, there is one more consequence of math avoidance and misconception : good mathematical approaches are sometimes applied inc- rectly.

KlappentextWe start with a fun puzzle in mathematics and mathematical methods. Moreover, there is one more consequence of math avoidance and misconception : good mathematical approaches are sometimes applied inc- rectly. Applying mathematical methods is similar to using nuclear power: the nal results depend on the competence of the user.
ZusammenfassungThis fascinating work makes the link between the rarified world of maths and the down-to-earth one inhabited by engineers. It introduces and explains classical and modern mathematical procedures as applied to the real problems confronting engineers and geoscientists.

From the reviews:



"It introduces into mathematical modelling and 'can assist in the education of engineers and geoscientists by helping them to understand the usefulness of diverse mathematical approaches.' ... The book is carefully written and can be recommended for those readers who have to use some mathematics for their problems and ... who also would like to understand the process of mathematical modelling." (Wolfgang Näther, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1137 (15), 2008)

"In this small volume, Wilder ... presents some modern mathematical techniques to solve problems arising in engineering and geosciences in a lucid, easy-to-understand style. ... Contains a useful subject index and a bibliography with list of books and research papers for additional reading. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upperdivision undergraduates through professional engineers and geoscientists." (D. V. Chopra, Choice, Vol. 46 (3), November, 2008)

"This is a short and concise account of geo-statistical techniques and is aimed at students of engineering and the geosciences. ... provide a simple and relatively complete description of commonly used geostatistical (and engineering) models in a way that is nonthreatening to math avoiders and useful for non-specialists." (Neville Fowkes, Siam Review, Vol. 51 (1), 2009)

"Mathematical Methods for Engineers and Geoscientists aims at providing useful mathematical tools to students and practitioners in the earth sciences, with an emphasis on problem solving." (Bernard Giroux, Mathematical Geosciences, Vol. 41, 2009)mehr

Autor

In 1970 Olga Waelder was born in Moscow. She began her studies at the Technical University for Electronics and Mathematics in Moscow in 1987 from whence she received her degree in applied mathematics in 1993. From 1996 until 1999 she furthered her studies at the Technical University Mining Academy in Freiberg (Germany) from whence she received a degree in mathematics. Between 2001 and 2004 she was a research assistant at the Institute for Cartography, Dresden Technical University. In 2003 she began lecturing mathematical cartography. She continued her post doctorate studies there in 2004 and since 2005 has been a lecturer for adjustment theory.
