This well-written book explains the theory of spectral methods and their application to the computation of viscous incompressible fluid flow, in clear and eleme

This is a book about spectral methods for partial differential equations: when to use them, how to implement them, and what can be learned from their of spectra

In developing this book, we decided to emphasize applications and to provide methods for solving problems. As a result, we limited the mathematical devel opment

Publisher Description

Spectral methods are well-suited to solve problems modeled by time-dependent partial differential equations: they are fast, efficient and accurate and widely us
