Path Integrals in Physics Volume 2: Quantum Field Theory, Statistical Physics & Other Modern Applications

Taylor & Francis, 2001

This book covers the fundamentals of path integrals, both the Wiener and Feynman types, and their many applications in physics. It deals with systems that have an infinite number of degrees of freedom. The book discusses the general physical background and concepts of the path integral approach used, followed by the most typical and important...

Managing knowledge in the construction industry (Spon Research)

Taylor & Francis, 2009

Knowledge management presents a new way of understanding organizations and companies, and is especially suited to sophisticated and highly technical firms and operations such as those in the construction industry.

This new book draws on hard data from three separate research programs in Sweden and shows how the concept of knowledge can...

Quantum Mechanics: An Introduction for Device Physicists and Electrical Engineers, Second Edition

Taylor & Francis, 2001

Many of my friends have used the first edition of this book, and have suggested a number of changes and additions, not to mention the many errata necessary. In the second edition, I have tried to incorporate as many additions and changes as possible without making the text over-long. As before, there remains far more material than can be covered in...

Path Integrals in Physics Volume 1: Stochastic Process & Quantum Mechanics

Taylor & Francis, 2001

The importance of path-integral methods in theoretical physics can hardly be disputed. Their applications in most branches of modern physics have proved to be extremely fruitful not only for solving already existing problems but also as a guide for the formulation and development of essentially new ideas and approaches in the description of...

The Origin and Evolution of the Solar System

Taylor & Francis, 2000

The Origin and Evolution of the Solar System begins by describing historical, i.e. pre-1950, theories and illustrating why they became unacceptable. The main part then critically examines five extant theories, including the current paradigm, the Solar Nebula Theory, to determine how well they fit with accepted scientific principles and...

Geometry, Topology and Physics, Second Edition (Graduate Student Series in Physics)

Taylor & Francis, 2003

This book provides an introduction to the ideas and techniques of differential geometry and topology. It starts with a brief survey of quantum field theory, gauge theory, general relativity, vector spaces, and topology. Using many illustrations, exercises, and problems, the author demonstrates more elaborate concepts of topology and geometry,...

Applied Structural and Mechanical Vibrations

Taylor & Francis, 1999

This book deals primarily with fundamental aspects of engineering vibrations within the framework of the linear theory. Although it is true that in practical cases it is sometimes not easy to distinguish between linear and nonlinear phenomena, the basic assumption throughout this text is that the principle of superposition holds.

Computer Modelling of Concrete Mixtures

Taylor & Francis, 1999

While the traditional procedure of making trial mixes is now unnecessary, expensive and time consuming, the data generated can be incorporated into the development of computer-based systems and combined with knowledge from research and practice. The author has developed systems by which a small amount of materials data can be used to predict the...

Computational River Dynamics

Taylor & Francis, 2007

This comprehensive text on the fundamentals of modeling flow and sediment transport in rivers treats both the physical principles and numerical methods for various degrees of complexity. It covers 1-D, 2-D (both depth- and width-averaged), and 3-D models, as well as the integration and coupling of these models. The volume includes a broad selection...

Black Holes, Wormholes & Time Machines

Taylor & Francis, 1999

Do you know: · What might happen if you fall into a black hole? · That the Universe does not have an edge? · That the reason it gets dark at night is proof of the Big Bang? · That cosmic particles time-travel through the atmosphere defying death? · That our past, present and future might all coexist...

Restorative Techniques in Paediatric Dentistry

Taylor & Francis, 2002

The third edition of this comprehensive text is supplemented by over 350 high-quality colour illustrations ensuring that "Paediatric Dentistry" is an essential textbook for both theoretical knowledge and the practice of clinical paediatric dentistry. This user-friendly, accessible new edition includes contributions from a number of...
