Continuum Mechanics, Applied Mathematics and Scientific Computing: Godunov's Legacy

This book is a liber amicorum to Professor Sergei Konstantinovich Godunov and gathers contributions by renowned scientists in honor of his 90th birthday. The contributions address those fields that Professor Godunov is most famous for: differential and difference equations, partial differential equations, equations of mathematical physics, mathematical modeling, difference schemes, advanced computational methods for hyperbolic equations, computational methods for linear algebra, and mathematical problems in continuum mechanics.

Includes applications of mathematics in continuum mechanics

Covers differential and difference equations, equations of mathematical physics, and difference schemes

Gathers a range of contributions written in honor of Sergei Konstantinovich Godunov
