Numerical Computation UniOviedo
This PDF is prepared by Gonzalo Galiano Casas and Esperanza Garcia Gonzalo from the Department of Mathematics at Oviedo University. With a view to keeping things compact, this document initiates with finite arithmetic and error analysis, which forms the basis necessary for understanding the issue of numerical precision and limitations. It considers methods for nonlinear equations, interpolation, and approximation. Key sections on numerical differentiation and integration give hands-on tools both for data analysis and the solution of mathematical problems. It also covers systems of linear equations and optimization, rounding it out for students and practitioners who might want to apply the numerical methods through a variety of problems.

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.

This book is a technical reference to the floating-point environment supported on SPARCTM and x86 platforms running under the Solaris operating system. The book describes the Floating-Point Environment, the representation and computation of floating point numbers and how the results of arithmetic operations are rounded. The Software and Hardware Support section describes how numerical operations are passed between the hardware and software of the system. The book should be indispensable to anyone seeking an understanding of how numerical computations are executed and optimized on Solaris systems. In particular, it will be an asset worth having in real life for developers and engineers working in the field of numerical algorithms within this particular environment of computing and offers a deep view into performance and accuracy considerations.

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.
