  • Asymptotic Analysis and the Numerical Solution of Partial Differential Equations

    by Hans G. Kaper, Marc Garbey ...
    Series series Lecture Notes in Pure and Applied Mathematics
    Integrates two fields generally held to be incompatible, if not downright antithetical, in 16 lectures from a February 1990 workshop at the Argonne National Laboratory, Illinois. The topics, of interest to industrial and applied mathematicians, analysts, and computer scientists, include singular per ... Read more

  • Mathematics of Planet Earth

    Protecting Our Planet, Learning from the Past, Safeguarding for the Future

    Edited by Hans G. Kaper, Fred S. Roberts ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    Since its inception in 2013, Mathematics of Planet Earth (MPE) focuses on mathematical issues arising in the study of our planet. Interested in the impact of human activities on the Earth’s system, this multidisciplinary field considers the planet not only as a physical system, but also as a system supporting life, a system organized by humans, and a system at risk.The articles collected in this ...

  • Thermodynamics

    A Dynamical Systems Approach

    by Wassim M. Haddad, VijaySekhar Chellaboina, Sergey G. Nersesov ...
    Series series Princeton Series in Applied Mathematics
    This book places thermodynamics on a system-theoretic foundation so as to harmonize it with classical mechanics. Using the highest standards of exposition and rigor, the authors develop a novel formulation of thermodynamics that can be viewed as a moderate-sized system theory as compared to statistical thermodynamics. This middle-ground theory involves deterministic large-scale dynamical system ... Read more

  • Loop Quantum Gravity: The First 30 Years

    by Abhay Ashtekar, Jorge Pullin ...
    Series Book 4 - 100 Years Of General Relativity
    'Written by young theoretical physicists who are experts in the field, this volume is meant both to provide an introduction to the field and to offer a review of the latest developments, not discussed in many other existing books, for senior researchers. It will also appeal to scientists who do not work directly on LQG but are interested in issues at the interface of general relativity and quantum ... Read more

  • The Finite Element Method

    An Introduction with Partial Differential Equations

    by A. J. Davies ...
    The finite element method is a technique for solving problems in applied science and engineering. The essence of this book is the application of the finite element method to the solution of boundary and initial-value problems posed in terms of partial differential equations. The method is developed for the solution of Poisson's equation, in a weighted-residual context, and then proceeds to time ... Read more

  • Introductory Quantum Optics

    by Christopher Gerry, Peter Knight ...
    This book provides an elementary introduction to the subject of quantum optics, the study of the quantum mechanical nature of light and its interaction with matter. The presentation is almost entirely concerned with the quantized electromagnetic field. Topics covered include single-mode field quantization in a cavity, quantization of multimode fields, quantum phase, coherent states, quasi ... Read more

  • Lectures On Phase Transitions And The Renormalization Group

    by Nigel Goldenfeld ...
    Covering the elementary aspects of the physics of phases transitions and the renormalization group, this popular book is widely used both for core graduate statistical mechanics courses as well as for more specialized courses. Emphasizing understanding and clarity rather than technical manipulation, these lectures de-mystify the subject and show precisely "how things work." Goldenfeld keeps in ... Read more

  • Foundations of Quantum Mechanics

    An Exploration of the Physical Meaning of Quantum Theory

    by Travis Norsen ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Authored by an acclaimed teacher of quantum physics and philosophy, this textbook pays special attention to the aspects that many courses sweep under the carpet. Traditional courses in quantum mechanics teach students how to use the quantum formalism to make calculations. But even the best students - indeed, especially the best students - emerge rather confused about what, exactly, the theory says ... Read more

  • Micromechanics of Fracture and Damage

    by Luc Dormieux, Djimedo Kondo ...
    This book deals with the mechanics and physics of fractures at various scales. Based on advanced continuum mechanics of heterogeneous media, it develops a rigorous mathematical framework for single macrocrack problems as well as for the effective properties of microcracked materials. In both cases, two geometrical models of cracks are examined and discussed: the idealized representation of the ... Read more

  • Variational Methods with Applications in Science and Engineering

    by Kevin W. Cassel ...
    There is a resurgence of applications in which the calculus of variations has direct relevance. In addition to application to solid mechanics and dynamics, it is now being applied in a variety of numerical methods, numerical grid generation, modern physics, various optimization settings and fluid dynamics. Many applications, such as nonlinear optimal control theory applied to continuous systems, ... Read more

  • Feynman And Computation

    by Anthony Hey ...
    Series series Frontiers in Physics
    Computational properties of use to biological organisms or to the construction of computers can emerge as collective properties of systems having a large number of simple equivalent components (or neurons). The physical meaning of content-addressable memory is described by an appropriate phase space flow of the state of a system. A model of such a system is given, based on aspects of neurobiology ...
