Evolution Inclusions and Variation Inequalities for Earth Data Processing III
Long-Time Behavior of Evolution Inclusions Solutions in Earth Data Analysis
Language: English
Release Date: May 22, 2012
In this sequel to two earlier volumes, the authors now focus on the long-time behavior of evolution inclusions, based on the theory of extremal solutions to differential-operator problems. This approach is used to solve problems in climate research, geophysics, aerohydrodynamics, chemical kinetics...
