It is designed as reference for practicing engineers or for use as a standard university course text, illustrating practical examples from computational science (such as optics, environmental science, chemistry, biology, tomography, economics etc.). The authors describe the most popular classical algorithms and modern techniques with all of the examples computed in Mathcad (on CD-ROM).KEY FEATURES* Emphasizes the basic ideas of numerical techniques and the uses of modern mathematical software (Mathcad) rather than relying only on complex mathematical derivations.*Illustrates simple practical examples from computational science (optics, environmental science, chemistry biology, tomography, economics etc.)*Includes \\\'live graphs\\\' and figures rendered by Mathcad calculations.*Accompanied by a CD-ROM with calculations, figures and source code.*Fulfils requirements of a course in computational science demonstrating recent algorithms and technology
