click here to see this book


Second volume of a 2-volume set examines physical systems that can usefully be modeled by equations of the first order. The book begins with a consideration of pairs of quasilinear hyperbolic equations of the first order and goes on to explore multicomponent chromatography, complications of counter-current moving-bed adsorbers, more. Exercises. 1989 edition. 198 black-and-white illustrations. Author and subject indices.
