WAVES AND STABILITY IN CONTINUOUS MEDIA
Proceedings of the 13th Conference on WASCOM 2005
Catania, Italy 19 - 25 June 2005
edited by Roberto Monaco (Politecnico di Torino, Italy), Giuseppe Mulone (Universitá di Catania, Italy), Salvatore Rionero (Universitá di Napoli, Italy) & Tommaso Ruggeri (Universitá di Bologna, Italy)
The book contains recent contributions in the field of waves propagation and stability in continuous media. In particular, the contributions consider discontinuity and shock waves, stability in fluid dynamics, small parameter problems, kinetic theories towards continuum models, non-equilibrium thermodynamics, and numerical applications.
The volume is the fourth in a series published by World Scientific since 1999. The following distinguished authors contribute to the present book: S Bianchini, R Caflish, C Cercignani, Y Choquet-Bruhat, C Dafermos, L Desvillettes, V Giovangigli, H Gouin, I Muller, D Parker, B Straughan, M Sugiyama and W Weiss.
