This book presents and explains a general, efficient, and elegant method for solving the Dirichlet, Neumann, and Robin boundary value problems for the extensional deformation of a thin plate on an elastic foundation.

This book offers a simple, no-frills approach to differential equations, with some 400 exercises that can be solved without a calculating device. Each worked example includes Mathematica commands for checking results and generating graphical representations.

The computational power available means that practitioners can find accurate approximations to the solutions of more sophisticated mathematical models. This book describes a class of techniques that fulfill this need by providing closed-form solutions to many boundary value problems that arise in science and engineering.

These conference proceedings are concerned with the solution of mathematical models from various physical domains, by means of integral methods in conjunction with various approximation schemes.
