這本《有限元方法的數學理論(第3版)》由美國的Susanne C. Brenner和L. Ridgway Scott所著，內容是：This edition contains four new sections on the following topics: the BDDCdomain decomposition preconditioner (Section 7.8), a convergent adaptive algorithm (Section 9.5), interior penalty methods (Section 10.5) and Poincare-Friedrichs inequalities for piecewise Wp1 functions (Section 10.6). We have made improvements throughout the text, many of which weresuggested by colleagues, to whom we are grateful. New exercises have beenadded and the list of references has also been expanded and updated.
