To celebrate their sixtieth birthdays, the authors signed on to the program called Semester At Sea,
visiting ten foreign ports in a hundred day journey. This book records their reflections on world religions, politics, environmental issues, education, the search for beauty, and their own aging.
The authors have been married for thirty-six years and raised five children together. They both enjoy bicycling, racquetball, hiking, camping, river rafting, skiing, and diving, and have recently taken up sailing. They are
both retired, live mostly in New Mexico and part-time in Belize, and travel extensively. CATHARINE STEWART-ROACHE admits a love affair with the sea.
Perhaps this is somewhat peculiar for one living in the high desert of the southwest. She says that being a desert dweller only makes her appreciate water more. Her venture into scuba diving led to curiosity
about all aspects of the sea and what lived in it. In 1986 she participated in Project Ocean Search where she dove with the Cousteau Society and began her amateur study of marine biology. One of the highlights of her
Semester At Sea was furthering her studies of marine biology and oceanography. An accomplished artist in both painting and stone sculpture, in her professional career she co-authored a book on nutrition
and exercise, and was involved with the elderly as a counselor and chaplain. In this book she explores the relationship between the voyage at sea and her journey into old age. PATRICK J. ROACHE
admits a love affair with Catharine. He is retired from a research career in engineering and applied mathematics focusing on fluid dynamics. He founded a small R&D firm, authored four graduate
level technical books and over one hundred technical papers, and worked in aerodynamics, ocean modeling, and environmental performance analysis. He has served as adjunct and visiting professor at six
universities. He has participated in a Mayan archeology dig with EarthWatch, run the rapids of the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon in a two-man raft, climbed Mount Fuji, and hiked the Milford
Track in New Zealand, the Chilcoot Trail in Alaska, and the Isle of Skye in Scotland. He is a member of numerous environmental organizations. On Semester at Sea, he studied geological hazards and comparative religions. |

This book covers modern approaches to Verification and Validation of computer codes and other topics related to the Quantification of Uncertainty and code Quality Assurance. Especially noteworthy are the Method of Manufactured Solutions, a general method for obtaining exact solutions for code Verifications, and the Grid Convergence Index, a method for uniform reporting of grid convergence tests. Applicable to commercial codes and to all problems modeled by partial differential equations, examples include CFD, Groundwater Modeling, etc. Provides useable formulas and practical guidance for error estimation and experimental Validation.

This book is the successor to the pioneering text Computational Fluid Dynamics, translated into Russian, Japanese and Chinese, and cited over 2,066 times through 1995. Part I consists of the original text with
revisions and updates, including implicit methods for compressible flow and TVD methods. Part II covers more recent topics, including Finite Element vs. Finite Difference Methods, Multigrid Solvers, the Flux-Based
Modified Method of Characteristics, elliptic grid generation, high order accuracy solutions in non-orthogonal grids, solution adaptive grids and time steps, contaminant transport in porous media, and Verification and Validation. |

This book describes how to solve discretized elliptic partial differential equations by spatial marching, using domain decomposition and other stabilization schemes. The book
includes detailed comparisons to other methods (including direct, mulitgrid, preconditioned conjugate gradient) and application to multiprocessor parallel computers. For further details including Table of
