From the book by A.D. Polyanin and A.V. Manzhirov, Handbook of Mathematics for Engineers and Scientists, Chapman & Hall/CRC Press, 2007. Andrei D. Polyanin, D.Sc., Ph.D., is a well-known scientist of broad interests who is active in various areas of mathematics, mechanics, and chemical engineering sciences. He is one of the most prominent authors in the field of reference literature on mathematics and physics. Professor Polyanin graduated with honors from the Department of Mechanics and Mathematics of Moscow State University in 1974. He received his Ph.D. in 1981 and his D.Sc. in 1986 from the Institute for Problems in Mechanics of the Russian (former USSR) Academy of Sciences. Since 1975, Professor Polyanin has been working at the Institute for Problems in Mechanics of the Russian Academy of Sciences; he is also Professor of Mathematics at Bauman Moscow State Technical University. He is a member of the Russian National Committee on Theoretical and Applied Mechanics and of the Mathematics and Mechanics Expert Council of the Higher Certification Committee of the Russian Federation. Professor Polyanin has made important contributions to exact and approximate analytical methods in the theory of differential equations, mathematical physics, integral equations, engineering mathematics, theory of heat and mass transfer, and chemical hydrodynamics. He has obtained exact solutions for several thousand ordinary differential, partial differential, and integral equations. Professor Polyanin is an author of more than 30 books in English, Russian, German, and Bulgarian as well as more than 120 research papers and three patents. He has written a number of fundamental handbooks, including A. D. Polyanin and V. F. Zaitsev, Handbook of Exact Solutions for Ordinary Differential Equations, CRC Press, 1995 and 2003; A. D. Polyanin and A. V. Manzhirov, Handbook of Integral Equations, CRC Press, 1998; A. D. Polyanin, Handbook of Linear Partial Differential Equations for Engineers and Scientists, Chapman & Hall/CRC Press, 2002; A. D. Polyanin, V. F. Zaitsev, and A. Moussiaux, Handbook of First Order Partial Differential Equations, Taylor & Francis, 2002; and A. D. Polyanin and V. F. Zaitsev, Handbook of Nonlinear Partial Differential Equation, Chapman & Hall/CRC Press, 2004. Professor Polyanin is editor of the book series Differential and Integral Equations and Their Applications, Chapman & Hall/CRC Press, London/Boca Raton, and Physical and Mathematical Reference Literature, Fizmatlit, Moscow. He is also Editor-in-Chief of the international scientific-educational Website EqWorld — The World of Mathematical Equations (http://eqworld.ipmnet.ru), which is visited by over 1000 users a day worldwide. Professor Polyanin is a member of the Editorial Board of the journal Theoretical Foundations of Chemical Engineering. In 1991, Professor Polyanin was awarded a Chaplygin Prize of the Russian Academy of Sciences for his research in mechanics. In 2001, he received an award from the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation.
