Volume 1 is the first book, in which a new hierarchical model for dynamic non-linear systems is described and analysed and a set of new hierarchical principles is discussed. The modern hierarchic asymptotic methods are set forth systematically, taking into account specific features of electrodynamic problems, and the phenomenon of hierarchy in electrodynamics, in itself, is thoroughly discussed from a new point of view. A set of hierarchical asymptotic calculative methods of two types is discussed in detail. The methods of the first type are destined for asymptotic integration of non-linear differential equations with total derivatives and with multifrequency (including multi-scale) non-linear right hand parts. These are the Van der Pol method, Krylov-Bogolyubov method, Bogolyubov-Zubarev method and their hierarchical versions. The methods of the second type include the method of slowly varying amplitudes, the method of averaged characteristics, the methods of averaged kinetic and quasihydrodynamic equations, and some other. These methods are intended for asymptotic integration of non-linear differential equations with partial derivatives and multifrequency (including multi-scale) right hand parts. Detailed calculative technologies for practical application of all mentioned methods are illustrated by examples of real electrodynamic systems (free electron lasers, undulative induction accelerators, systems for transformation of laser signals, etc.). |

| Publisher Description: Everybody is current in a world surrounded by computer. Computers determine our professional activity and penetrate increasingly deeper into our everyday life. Therein we also need increasingly refined c- puter technology. Sometimes we think that the next generation of c- puter will satisfy all our dreams, giving us hope that most of our urgent problems will be solved very soon. However, the future comes and il- sions dissipate. This phenomenon occurs and vanishes sporadically, and, possibly, is a fundamental law of our life. Experience shows that indeed 'systematically remaining' problems are mainly of a complex tech- logical nature (the creation of new generation of especially perfect - croschemes, elements of memory, etc. ). But let us note that amongst these problems there are always ones solved by our purely intellectual efforts alone. Progress in this direction does not require the invention of any 'superchip' or other similar elements. It is important to note that the results obtained in this way very often turn out to be more significant than the 'fruits' of relevant technological progress. The hierarchical asymptotic analytical-numerical methods can be - garded as results of such 'purely intellectual efforts'. Their application allows us to simplify essentially computer calculational procedures and, consequently, to reduce the calculational time required. It is obvious that this circumstance is very attractive to any computer user. |
