Modern Differential Geometry of Curves And Surfaces With Mathematica
Book (italiano):
Prescribing theory value using Mathematica in a complementary way, Modern Differential Geometry of Curves and Surfaces with Mathematica, the third edition of Allied Gray's textbook, covers how to define and compute standard geometric functions using Mathematica for constructing new curves and surfaces from existing ones. Since Gray's death, authors Abbena and Salamon have stepped in to bring the book up to date. Maintaining Gray's intuitive approach, they reorganized the material to provide a clearer division between the text and the Mathematica code and added a Mathematica notebook as an appendix to each chapter. They also address important new topics, such as quarternions.<BR>Containing more than 300 illustrations, the book demonstrates how to use Mathematica to plot many interesting curves and surfaces, the authors highlight important theorems with many examples and include 300 miniprograms for computing and plotting various geometric objects, alleviating the drudgery of computing things such as the curvature and torsion of a curve in space.
