Computational Problems in Science and Engineering II

This book provides readers with modern computational techniques for solving variety of problems from electrical, mechanical, civil and chemical engineering. Mathematical methods are presented in a unified manner, so they can be applied consistently to problems in applied electromagnetics, strength of materials, fluid mechanics, heat and mass transfer, environmental engineering, biomedical engineering, signal processing, automatic control and more.

Features contributions on significant aspects of current numerical methods and computational mathematics Presents actual results and innovative methods that provide numerical solutions, while minimizing computing times Includes new methods and modern variations of known techniques that can solve difficult scientific problems efficiently

Prof. Dr. Nikos E. Mastorakis received his B.Sc. and M.Sc. (Diploma) in Electrical Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens (Greece) and the Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from the same university. He also received the B.Sc. (Ptychion) in Pure Mathematics from the National University of Athens, Greece. He also studied Medicine in the Medical School of Athens of the same university. He has served as special scientist on Computers and Electronics in the Hellenic (Greek) Army General Staff (1993-1994) and taught several courses in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department of the National Technical University of Athens (1998-1994). He has also served as Visiting Professor at the University of Exeter, School of Engineering (UK, 1998), Visiting Professor in the Technical University of Sofia (Bulgaria, 2003-2004) while he is now Professor in the Technical University of Sofia and also Professor in the department of Computer Science at the Military Institutions of University Education (MIUE) - Hellenic Naval Academy, Greece.

Prof. Dr. Nikos Mastorakis was the first that solved with several different approaches the former unsolved problem of Multivariable Factorization and published it. He was also the first scholar that completely solved the problem of stability for Multidimensional Systems using Genetic Algorithms. Also, was the first to construct an Electronic Musical Instrument with the spaces of the Byzantine music. He is an active researcher in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science (Systems Theory, Control, Optimization Theory, Algorithms Theory, Signal Processing, Robotics, Computational Intelligence). The editor of over 200 Books and the author of 5 books, Dr. Mastorakis has published more than 1200 papers in international books, journals and conferences. An active reviewer of 26 International Journals and member of the Editorial Board of 13 International Journals and Editor of International Book Series: (Editor of the series? Electrical and Computer Engineering? (WSEAS Press) and Editor of the series? Mathematics and Computers in Science and Engineering? (WSEAS-Press), Member of the Editorial Board of Advances in Computation: Theory and Practice by NOVA), Dr. Mastorakis has received several awards (Royal Society of England, Hellenic National Research Foundation, etc.) for his academic studies and his scientific research.

Prof. Dr. Nikos Mastorakis is the Editor-in-Chief in many International Journals. He was the General Chairman in more than 30 International Conferences. He has organized more than 40 Special Sessions, 3 Workshops and has given many plenary lectures. He is also a member of IEEE (Senior Member), New York Academy of Sciences, of A.F. Communications and Electronics Association, American Association for the Advancement of Science and other smaller scientific societies.

Dr. Mastorakis is a registered professional electrical and mechanical engineer. He is also Honorary Professor, University of Cluj, ROMANIA. He has received the Prize of Excellence from Romanian Academy of Science, Bucharest, ROMANIA and he is also Professor at the ASEI (Military Institutes of University Education), Hellenic Naval Academy, GREECE since 1994.

Imre J. Rudas graduated from Banki Donat Polytechnic, Budapest in 1971, received the Master Degree in Mathematics from the Eotvos Lorand University, Budapest, the Ph.D. in Robotics from the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in 1987, while the Doctor of Science degree from the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in 2004. He received his first Doctor Honoris Causa degree from the Technical University of Kosice, Slovakia and the second one from "Polytechnica" University of Timisoara, Romania.

He is active as a full university professor. He served as the Rector of Budapest Tech from August 1, 2003 for a period of four years, and was reelected for three years in 2007. From 2010 Budapest Tech was changed
