Direct Methods In The Calculus Of Variations

This book is developed for the study of vectorial problems in the calculus of variations. It is a new edition of the earlier book published in 1989. Almost half of the book consists of new material and there are added examples. This book studies vectorial problems in the calculus of variations and quasiconvex analysis. It is a new edition of the earlier book published in 1989 and has been updated with some new material and examples added. This monograph will appeal to researchers and graduate students in mathematics and engineering.
