Paul Wilmott Introduces Quantitative Finance 2e

November 14th, 2011, 10:12 am

Paul Wilmott Introduces Quantitative Finance 2e +CD ( Paperback )judging from the description, this is a fairly strange quant finance book:QuoteDescription of Paul Wilmott Introduces Quantitative Finance 2e +CDIn this updated and revised second edition, the authors present a systematic and practical approach to the analytical and numerical aspects of the prediction of rotordynamics behaviour. The influence of bending is a main theme of the book, although the effects of torsion are also considered. The use of finite element techniques and the characteristics of rotor elements are introduced. The book goes on to consider simple models showing basic phenomena which are then linked to industrial applications such as turbocompressors, high pressure centrifugal compressors, and steam and air turbines. Key features include: The inclusion of a computer program available free of charge on the Internet The development of a simple model of co?axial multirotors New industrial applications and 1995 API specificationsThis book will be of great interest and value to students and engineers concerned with predictions in rotordynamics and mechanical engineering.

The 1995 API specifications look interesting.

Cut and pasted out of the description of the wrong book, work Global Investor's Bookshop. Like Amazon, but not as good.

My apologies, it looks like Wiley did something strange with their data import because that record has an invalid ISBN and mismatched book data. That book record has now been removed.(the correct book record for Paul Wilmott Introduces Quantitative Finance: http://books.global-investor.com/books/168530.htm)

Section 40.14.2, page 668
Can you say a bit more about this equation? The derivative is a vector and there is a matrix Q in there. So, things like payoff, BCs, are the states coupled etc.?
