Heat Conduction Using Green's Function (Series in Computational Methods and Physical Processes in Mechanics and Thermal Sciences) - Hardcover

The purpose of the book is to organize the solution of heat conduction and diffusion problems and to make them more accessible. This is accomplished using the method of Green’s functions, together with extensive tables of Green’s functions and related integrals. The tables of Green’s function were first compiled as a supplement to a first-year graduate course in heat conduction. The book was originally envisioned as a reference volume, but it has since grown into a heat conduction treatise from a Green’s-functions perspective.
