Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-01-24 Summary: Encompassing concise and comprehensible ... My acquintance with the book starts with a course in calculus of variations in Israel Institute of Technology - Technion. I recommend this book as a prepration for the advanced methods in chapter 8 of Tensors Differential Forms and Variational Principles - David Lovelock and Hanno Rund. Anyone who is about to study a course in General Relativity should take a year or leisure two years and read both books. I also recommend this book to anyone who deals with shape matching, signal processing and image processing. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-02-18 Summary: Quite clear, straight-forward explanations ... I like this book, certainly what I have read of it. I'm now digging around near page 75, and it struck me that for the first time I really "get it" - In particular, this was about the use of the Legendre transform. The authors start with a very gentle introduction of it, and then, while things become more abstract, the text never jumps too far and never leaves the reader too much in puzzling. It's ought to be studied though, and it's not "easy". ...more

Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | First six chapters include theory of fields and sufficient conditions for weak and strong extrema. Chapter 7 considers application of variation methods to systems with infinite degrees of freedom, and Chapter 8 deals with direct methods in the calculus of variations. Problems follow each chapter and the two appendices. Fresh, lively text is ideal for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in math and physics. ...more
Calculus of Variations
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2002-06-30 Summary: Will never collect dust ... The importance of variational calculus cannot be overstated, as it now is being applied to myriads of different areas, these going way beyond the routine applications in physics and engineering. Indeed, it has been found to be useful in economics, network engineering, financial modeling, computational radiology, and in the new field of constraint programming. This book is now a classic, and has been the standard reference and textbook for variational calculus since its first date of publication. There have been many ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2001-09-03 Summary: A standard work on variational calculus ... This is the ultimate applications of variations book. The book develops the variational calculus in a pretty succinct manner and then surveys areas of application such as vibrating membranes, optics, hamiltonian mechanics, elasticity theory, quantum mechanics and electrostatics. The book has a pretty reasonable amount of problems which tend to be fairly soluble and have the feel of an engineer's book rather than a mathematicians text. Weinstock was a Stanford math professor,so the book is fairly rigorous but the emphasis ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 1999-02-02 Summary: A brief , but wondeful textbook in Calculus of Variations ... When I firstly see this book, I don't take it seriously for its length. But after I read it, I find it's an appropriate textbook for its brevity,rigor in mathematics,and a lot of examples helping you to illustrate its application. I think the most valuable point of this book is the author's rigor in mathematics,which are often neglected by most physicists.Secondly is its master use of deduction. I recommend it heartedly. ...more
