Symmetry, Phase Modulation and Nonlinear Waves - Thomas J. (University of Surrey) Bridges - Bog

Nonlinear waves are pervasive in nature, but are often elusive when they are modelled and analysed. In this book the author develops a natural approach to the problem based on phase modulation. He delivers models, mechanisms, generality, universality and ease of computation, as well as developing the necessary mathematical background.
