Introduction to Scientific Computing?


Hello!

I've recently got interested in both the mathematical modelling of real-world phenomena and the simulation / numeric solution of those models. Unfortunately, I lack some of the mathematical background.

I'm looking for books to learn more about these topics:

- scientific computing in general (applications, implementation) - differential equations - differential-algebraic equations - numeric methods for solving systems of these equations

Thank you.

In today's day and age, it is High Performance Scientific Computing, so might be a good idea to focus on that.

Strongly recommended [1] and the free pdf book referred in [1] can be downloaded from [2], the book name is `EijkhoutIntroToHPC.pdf` in the root folder of the BB repo.
