Mathematics of Diffusion

Rating:
Summary: Classic solutions to diffusion problems.
Review: This book is a classic, collecting analytical solutions to common differential equations arising from common problems in mass transport.

Rating:
Summary: A great reference resource
Review: This classic diffusion text continues where many other texts end, and covers a broad variety of problem types. This is an excellent resource for diffusion solutions for less-common boundary conditions and assumptions, including thorough mathematical developments of the solutions and many references to the original works. Non-mathematicians will often need to roll up their sleeves to digest portions of the derivations, but the insight into the solution processes is often very revealing. This makes this book an invaluable reference, although it is probably not well suited as your only book on diffusion.
