Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book summarizes several mathematical aspects of the vanishing viscosity method and considers its applications in studying dynamical systems such as dissipative systems, hyperbolic conversion systems and nonlinear dispersion systems. Including original research results, the book demonstrates how to use such methods to solve PDEs and is an essential reference for mathematicians, physicists and engineers working in nonlinear science.
