Some information and knowledge are usually represented by human language
like “about 100km”, “approximately 39 ?C”, “roughly 80kg”, “low speed”,
“middle age”, and “big size”. Perhaps some people think that they are subjective
probability or they are fuzziness....
Computer Graphics: Principles and Practice, Third Edition, remains the most authoritative introduction to the field. The first edition, the original “Foley and van Dam,” helped to define computer graphics and how it could be taught. The second edition became an even more comprehensive...
This monograph takes as starting point that abstract quantum stochastic processes can be understood as a quantum field theory in one space and in one time coordinate. As a result it is appropriate to represent operators as power series of creation and annihilation operators in normal-ordered form, which can be achieved using classical measure...
Want to create sophisticated games and graphics-intensive apps? Learn OpenGL ES gets you started immediately with OpenGL ES. After mastering the basics of OpenGL ES itself, you will quickly find yourself writing and building game apps, without having to learn about object oriented programming techniques.
Chemical engineers face the challenge of learning the difficult concept and application of entropy and the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics. By following a visual approach and offering qualitative discussions of the role of molecular interactions, Koretsky helps them understand and visualize thermodynamics. Highlighted examples show how the material...
Following the pioneering discovery of alpha clustering and of molecular resonances, the field of nuclear clustering is today one of those domains of heavy-ion nuclear physics that faces the greatest challenges, yet also contains the greatest opportunities. After many summer schools and workshops, in particular over the last decade, the...
Ideas of Quantum Chemistry shows how quantum mechanics is applied to chemistry to give it a theoretical foundation. From the Schroedinger equation to electronic and nuclear motion to intermolecular interactions, this book covers the primary quantum underpinnings of chemical systems. The structure of the book (a TREE-form) emphasizes...
Reviews: "This is the best little 'how-to' book for starting and running a small business I've come across. Don't even think about going into business without it. And if you are already in business, this book is a must-read."
--Larry Winget, television personality and 5 time...
The concepts and ideas of elementary particle physics
are abstract, and they are typically expressed in the
language of mathematics. However, the goal of elementary
particle physics is very simple, and all the efforts
of elementary particle physicists are directed
toward that simple goal: to identify the basic building...
A Course in Computational Number Theory uses the computer as a tool for motivation and explanation. The book is designed for the reader to quickly access a computer and begin doing personal experiments with the patterns of the integers. It presents and explains many of the fastest algorithms for working with integers. Traditional topics are...
The study of electrophysiology has progressed rapidly because of the precise, delicate, and ingenious
experimental studies of many investigators. The field has also made great strides by unifying
these experimental observations through mathematical descriptions based on electromagnetic
field theory, electrochemistry, etc., which...
This book presents a comprehensive course of quantum mechanics for undergraduate and graduate students. After a brief outline of the innovative ideas that lead up to the quantum theory, the book reviews properties of the Schrödinger equation, the quantization phenomena and the physical meaning of wave functions. The book discusses, in a...
