Quantum Wells, Wires and Dots: Theoretical and Computational Physics of Semiconductor Nanostructures

John Wiley & Sons, 2005

This book is aimed at providing all of the essential information, both theoretical and computational, in order that the reader can, starting from essentially nothing, understand how the electronic, optical and transport properties of semiconductor heterostructures are calculated. However, perhaps more importantly, starting from this low...

The Concept of Probability in Statistical Physics (Cambridge Studies in Probability, Induction and Decision Theory)

Cambridge University Press, 1999

Probabilities have a puzzling character within the context of classical physics. Here, unlike in quantum mechanics, the use of probabilistic reasoning is not based on the existence of indeterminacy or objective lawlessness. Indeed, indeterminacy, in general, has no place in classical physics. In the very foundation of classical physics we find the...

The SIAM 100-Digit Challenge: A Study in High-Accuracy Numerical Computing

SIAM, 2004

"Destined to be a classic of modern computational science... a gourmet feast in ten courses." from the foreword by David H. Bailey, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory."

The authors, members of teams that solved all 10 problems, show in detail multiple approaches for solving each problem,...

Cambridge Self Scoring IQ Test

Test Master Corporation, 1993

In recent years researchers have learned that the brain, which is devided into left and right hemispheres, has assigned different mental tasks to one side or the other. Highly intelligent people use both their left and right brain in equal balance. Most people, becase of social emphasis, schooling and parental training are left-brain dominant! Thay...

Fluid Power Circuits and Controls: Fundamentals and Applications (Mechanical Engineering Series)

CRC Press, 2001

Engineers not only need to understand the basics of how fluid power components work, but they must also be able to design these components into systems and analyze or model fluid power systems and circuits. There has long been a need for a comprehensive text on fluid power systems, written from an engineering perspective, which is suitable for an...

Introductory Quantum Optics

Cambridge University Press, 2004

Quantum optics is one of the liveliest fields in physics at present. While it has been a dominant research field for at least two decades, with much graduate activity, in the past few years it has started to impact the undergraduate curriculum. This book developed from courses we have taught to final year undergraduates and beginning graduate...

Hydrodynamics of High-Speed Marine Vehicles

Cambridge University Press, 2006

Hydrodynamics of High-Speed Marine Vehicles discusses hydrodynamic aspects of the three main categories of high-speed marine vehicles, i.e. vessels supported by either the submerged hull, an air cushion or foils. Submerged-hull-supported vessels include planing and semi-displacement vessels. The wave environment, resistance, propulsion,...

Railroad Vehicle Dynamics: A Computational Approach

CRC Press, 2007

The methods of computational mechanics have been used extensively in modeling many physical systems. The use of multibody-system techniques, in particular, has been applied successfully in the study of various, fundamentally different applications. Railroad Vehicle Dynamics: A Computational Approach presents a computational multibody-system...
