TL;DR: The volume now gives a somewhat exhaustive account of the various ramifications of the subject, which are set out in an attractive manner and should become indispensable, not only as a textbook for advanced students, but as a work of reference to those whose aim is to extend the knowledge of analysis.

Abstract: This classic work has been a unique resource for thousands of mathematicians, scientists and engineers since its first appearance in 1902 Never out of print, its continuing value lies in its thorough and exhaustive treatment of special functions of mathematical physics and the analysis of differential equations from which they emerge The book also is of historical value as it was the first book in English to introduce the then modern methods of complex analysis This fifth edition preserves the style and content of the original, but it has been supplemented with more recent results and references where appropriate All the formulas have been checked and many corrections made A complete bibliographical search has been conducted to present the references in modern form for ease of use A new foreword by Professor SJ Patterson sketches the circumstances of the book's genesis and explains the reasons for its longevity A welcome addition to any mathematician's bookshelf, this will allow a whole new generation to experience the beauty contained in this text

Model equations for waves in stratified fluids
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered the model equations for gravity waves in horizontally stratified fluids and gave rigorous mathematical treatment to the well-posedness of the initial value problem, the question of existence of solitary wave solutions, and theoretical results about the stability of these solitary waves.

Unsteady hydromagnetic free-convection flow with radiative heat transfer in a rotating fluid
A. R. Bestman,S. K. Adjepong +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors study the free-convection flow near a moving infinite flat plate in a totating medium by imposing a time-dependent perturbation on a constant plate temperature.

Non-linear vibrations of a harmonically excited autoparametric system
TL;DR: In this paper, a parametrically excited pendulum hinged to the mass is considered and two types of restoring forces on the pendulum are considered, and the method of harmonic balance is used to evaluate the system response.

Dynamical approach to exciton migration in disordered molecular solidsa)
TL;DR: In this paper, a dynamical model for the rapid change in relative emission from traps and supertraps in molecular solids when the trap concentration is varied is presented, and good agreement between experiment and theoretical model is obtained in all cases.
