Introduction to Numerical Computation
This is an exhaustive PDF written by Lars Elden, Linde Wittmeyer-Koch, and Hans Bruun Nielsen. In fact, this really is an exemplary introduction to numerical computation. The text begins with the basics like error analysis and computer arithmetic, which gives a very solid ground for the origin and handling of numerical errors. It proceeds further to explain more basic topics related to function evaluation, solutions of nonlinear equations, and interpolation techniques. Next, it describes procedures for improving numerical estimates using differentiation and Richardson extrapolation. This is followed by full details of integration, systems of linear equations, and approximation. Finally, ordinary differential equations complete a thorough course of study that will prepare the reader with both the theory and practice that will serve in carrying out numerical computations.

Numerical Computation by Peter Bastian
Numerical Topics in Fluid Dynamics Computation!!! Peter Bastian Authored - This PDF covers advanced numerical computation topics but puts more emphasis on the solution of computational fluid dynamics. The book starts with the modeling of immiscible fluid flow in a composite porous medium, thus laying down the basics for the equations of multiphase fluid flow. It then provides fully implicit methods that have been used to find the finite volume discretization of systems for complex algebraic equations. Two important chapters are the parallelization methods that result in higher productivity of computation and the UG framework used for carrying out grid computations. Numerical results are then presented, which allow deriving some conclusions concerning practical applications and performance. The document will be particularly useful to researchers and engineers studying computational fluid dynamics and related numerical modeling problems.

Lectures in Basic Computational Numerical Analysis (PDF 168P)
This lecture series provides comprehensive foundational knowledge in the field of numerical computational analysis. Numerical Linear Algebra covers basic matrix operations and solutions of linear systems. The book further goes into the Solution of Nonlinear Equations that shows methods for solving equations which are not linear in form. Finally, it discusses Approximation Theory, showing how functions and data may be approximated. The lectures also cover Numerical Solution of ODEs and PDEs, giving ways to solve these two basic kinds of equations. This resource is intended for students and professionals looking to gain a solid understanding of basic and applied numerical analysis techniques.
