Description

Aimed at electrochemical researchers, graduate students, and anyone else who understands or is studying electrochemical fundamentals, this book explains how to use Mathematica to simulate electrochemical problems and obtain analytical solutions.

The accompanying CD-ROM contains an electronic version of the book in Mathematica notebook format with many additional related notebooks, as well as an extra chapter of Mathematica exercises, tips, and notes.
