The second edition of this popular introduction to numerical geodynamic modelling theory and applications features four new chapters. Based on the author's experience of teaching the material, and including practical exercises and MATLAB (R) examples, this user-friendly resource encourages students and researchers to experiment with geodynamic models.

Numerical modelling of geodynamic processes was predominantly the domain of high-level mathematicians experienced in numerical and computational techniques. Now, for the first time, students and new researchers in the Earth Sciences can learn the basic theory and applications from a single, accessible reference text. Assuming only minimal prerequisite mathematical training (simple linear algebra and derivatives) the author provides a solid grounding in basic mathematical theory and techniques, including continuum mechanics and partial differential equations, before introducing key numerical...
