Linear mathematical models in chemical engineering [electronic resource] / Martin A. Hjortso, Peter Wolenski.

By: Hjortso, Martin A, 1954-.
Contributor(s): Wolenski, P. (Peter).
Material type: materialTypeLabelComputer filePublisher: Singapore : World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte Ltd., ©2010Description: 1 online resource (524 p.) : ill.ISBN: 9789812794161.Subject(s): Chemical engineering -- Mathematics | Chemical reactions -- Mathematical models | Electronic booksDDC classification: 660.015118 Online resources: Access to full text is restricted to subscribers. Summary: "Understanding the mathematical modeling of chemical processes is fundamental to the successful career of a researcher in chemical engineering. This book reviews, introduces, and develops the mathematics that is most frequently encountered in sophisticated chemical engineering models. The result of a collaboration between a chemical engineer and a mathematician, both of whom have taught classes on modeling and applied mathematics, the book provides a rigorous and in-depth coverage of chemical engineering model formulation and analysis as well as a text which can serve as an excellent introduction to linear mathematics for engineering students. There is a clear focus in the choice of material, worked examples, and exercises that make it unusually accessible to the target audience. The book places a heavy emphasis on applications to motivate the theory, but simultaneously maintains a high standard of rigor to add mathematical depth and understanding."-- Publisher's website.
