Scaling Limits in Statistical Mechanics and Microstructures in Continuum Mechanics (Theoretical and Mathematical Physics)

Springer, 2008

Collective behavior in systems with many components, blow-ups with emergence of microstructures are proofs of the double, continuum and atomistic, nature of macroscopic systems, an issue which has always intrigued scientists and philosophers. Modern technologies have made the question more actual and concrete with recent, remarkable progresses also...

Statistical Mechanics: Algorithms and Computations (Oxford Master Series in Physics)

Oxford University Press, 2006

This book discusses the computational approach in modern statistical physics in a clear and accessible way and demonstrates its close relation to other approaches in theoretical physics. Individual chapters focus on subjects as diverse as the hard sphere liquid, classical spin models, single quantum particles and Bose-Einstein condensation....

An Introduction to Quantum Computing Algorithms

Birkhauser, 2001

In 1994 Peter Shor [65] published a factoring algorithm for a quantum computer that finds the prime factors of a composite integer N more efficiently than is possible with the known algorithms for a classical com puter. Since the difficulty of the factoring problem is crucial for the se curity of a public key encryption system,...

Mechanics of Biological Systems and Materials & Micro-and Nanomechanics, Volume 4: Proceedings of the 2019 Annual Conference on Experimental and ... Society for Experimental Mechanics Series)

Springer, 2019

Mechanics of Biological Systems and Materials & Micro-and Nanomechanics, Volume 4 of the Proceedings of the 2019 SEM Annual Conference & Exposition on Experimental and Applied Mechanics, the fourth volume of six from the Conference, brings together contributions to important areas of research and engineering. The collection...

Non-Perturbative Renormalization

World Scientific Publishing, 2008

The notion of renormalization is at the core of several spectacular achievements of contemporary physics, and in the last years powerful techniques have been developed allowing to put renormalization on a firm mathematical basis. This book provides a self-consistent and accessible introduction to the sophisticated tools used in the modern theory of...

Introduction to Phonons and Electrons

World Scientific Publishing, 2003

This book is based on my lecture notes developed for the undergraduate physics students. The lecture notes have two distinct parts. The first part goes into this book that focuses on achieving the basic understanding of phonons and electrons in crystalline solids. The second part is a selected set of classical and contemporary topics. It introduces...

Mathematical Modeling for Complex Fluids and Flows

Springer, 2012

Mathematical Modeling for Complex Fluids and Flows provides researchers and engineering practitioners encountering fluid flows with state-of-the-art knowledge in continuum concepts and associated fluid dynamics. In doing so it supplies the means to design mathematical models of these flows that adequately express the engineering physics...

Theory of Lift: Introductory Computational Aerodynamics in MATLAB/Octave

John Wiley & Sons, 2012

Starting from a basic knowledge of mathematics and mechanics gained in standard foundation classes, Theory of Lift: Introductory Computational Aerodynamics in MATLAB/Octave takes the reader conceptually through from the fundamental mechanics of lift to the stage of actually being able to make practical calculations and...

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...

Mechanics of User Identification and Authentication: Fundamentals of Identity Management

Auerbach Publications, 2007

User identification and authentication are essential parts of information security. Users must authenticate as they access their computer systems at work or at home every day. Yet do users understand how and why they are actually being authenticated, the security level of the authentication mechanism that they are using, and the potential impacts...

String Theory Demystified

McGraw-Hill, 2008

UNRAVEL the mystery of STRING THEORY

Trying to understand string theory but ending up with your brain in knots? Here's your lifeline! This straightforward guide explains the fundamental principles behind this cutting-edge concept.

Quantum: The Quantum Theory of Particles, Fields and Cosmology (Theoretical and Mathematical Physics)

Springer, 1997

This book gives a new insight into the interpretation of quantum mechanics (stochastic, integral paths, decoherence), a completely new treatment of angular momentum (graphical spin algebra) and an introduction to Fermion fields (Dirac equation) and Boson fields (e.m. and Higgs) as well as an introduction to QED (quantum electrodynamics),...
