Foundations of Quantum Physics

Springer, 2008

Our book is meant to be a text for a first undergraduate course in quantum physics. Both of us have taught this course numerous times and have used several different texts, some of them excellent. Obviously, though, there are changes we would make and that is the reason we are writing this book.

Two of the most widely used books for this course...

Digital SLR Cameras and Photography For Dummies

For Dummies, 2014

The perennial DSLR bestseller—now expanded with more photography tips

Digital SLR Cameras & Photography For Dummies has remained the top-selling book on DSLR photography since the first edition was published. Now in its Fifth Edition, itcovers the latest technologies in the world of DSLR cameras and...

Material Substructures in Complex Bodies: From Atomic Level to Continuum

Elsevier Limited, 2007

Stringent industrial requirements for sophisticated performance and circumstantial control of microdevices or nanotechnology manufacturing, and other types of machinery at multiple scales, require complex materials. The adjective 'complex' indicates that the substructure influences gross mechanical behaviour in a prominent way and interactions due...

Fat Manifolds and Linear Connections

World Scientific Publishing, 2008

The theory of connections is central not only in pure mathematics (differential and algebraic geometry), but also in mathematical and theoretical physics (general relativity, gauge fields, mechanics of continuum media). The now-standard approach to this subject was proposed by Ch. Ehresmann 60 years ago, attracting first mathematicians and...

Crossroads: History of Science, History of Art: Essays by David Speiser, vol. II

Birkhauser, 2011

Perusing the titles of the essays in this book makes it clear that its author is a man with many interests and a great curiosity. David Speiser is a lover and connoisseur of art. His view of the world is coloured by his familiarity with mathematics, that is, with “organized imagination” (his definition, see p. 49). As a...

Fundamentals of Robotic Mechanical Systems

Springer, 2002

Modern robotics dates from the late 1960s, when progress in the development of microprocessors made possible the computer control of a multiaxial manipulator. Since then, robotics has evolved to connect with many branches of science and engineering, and to encompass such diverse fields as computer vision, artificial intelligence, and speech...

100 Volumes of 'Notes on Numerical Fluid Mechanics': 40 Years of Numerical Fluid Mechanics and Aerodynamics in Retrospect

Springer, 2009

This volume contains 37 invited contributions, collected to celebrate one hundred volumes of the "NNFM Series". After a general introduction, overviews are given in five parts of the developments in numerical fluid mechanics and related fields. In the first part information about the series is given, its origins are discussed, as well as...

SQR in PeopleSoft and Other Applications Second Edition: PeopleSoft v.8

Manning Publications, 2003

SQR in PeopleSoft and Other Applications fills a big gap in the enterprise computing marketplace. For starters, this book explains (beginning from near zero) how to program with Structured Query Report Writer (SQR). It discusses the peculiarities of writing SQR software to interact with PeopleSoft databases. Readers are shown how to...

Chaotic Dynamics and Transport in Classical and Quantum Systems: Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute

Springer, 2005

This book offers a modern updated review on the most important activities in today dynamical systems and statistical mechanics by some of the best experts in the domain. It gives a contemporary and pedagogical view on theories of classical and quantum chaos and complexity in hamiltonian and ergodic systems and their applications to anomalous...

Data Mining: A Heuristic Approach

Idea Group Publishing, 2002

The last decade has witnessed a revolution in interdisciplinary research where the boundaries of different areas have overlapped or even disappeared. New fields of research emerge each day where two or more fields have integrated to form a new identity. Examples of these emerging areas include bioinformatics (synthesizing biology with...

Ship-shaped Offshore Installations: Design, Building, and Operation

Cambridge University Press, 2007

Ship-shaped offshore units are some of the more economical systems for the development of offshore oil and gas, and are often preferred in marginal fields. These systems are especially attractive to develop oil and gas fields in deep and ultra-deep water areas and remote locations away from existing pipeline infrastructures. Recently, the...

A Course in Theoretical Physics

John Wiley & Sons, 2013

This book is a comprehensive account of five extended modulescovering the key branches of twentieth-century theoretical physics,taught by the author over a period of three decades to students onbachelor and master university degree courses in both physics andtheoretical physics.

The modules cover nonrelativistic quantum mechanics,...
