 A New Twist to Fourier TransformsMaking use of the inherent helix in the Fourier transform expression, this book illustrates both Fourier transforms and their properties in the round. The author draws on elementary complex algebra to manipulate the transforms, presenting the ideas in such a way as to avoid pages of complicated mathematics. Similarly, abbreviations... |  |  Superconductivity: Fundamentals and Applications (Physics)Comprehensive and easy to understand this introductory text on superconductivity was especially written for the nonspecialist. The author, an active researcher in the field for more than forty years, presents the fundamental considerations (without too much mathematics), describes the various phenomena connected with the superconducting state,... |  |  Emerging Free and Open Source Software PracticesProject infrastructure and software repositories are now widely available at low cost with easy extraction, providing a foundational base to conduct detailed cyber-archeology at a scale not open to researchers before. Emerging Free and Open Source Software Practices provides a collection of empirical research acting as a focal point to the status... |
