| Elements of Statistical Mechanics: With an Introduction to Quantum Field Theory and Numerical Simula |
| Language:English | Channel:Mechanics |
This concise introduction to the key concepts and tools of modern statistical mechanics is self-contained. Combining analytical and numerical techniques, it also covers advanced topics such as non-relativistic quantum field theory. After introducing classical analytical techniques, the authors present important numerical methods and a diverse range of applications. Quantum statistical mechanics is then analyzed and applied to topics in astrophysics and cosmology. Combining the authors' many year... |

| Quantum Mechanics II: A Second Course in Quantum Theory, 2nd Edition |
| Language:English | Channel:Mechanics |
Here is a readable and intuitive quantum mechanics text that covers scattering theory, relativistic quantum mechanics, and field theory. This expanded and updated Second Edition - with five new chapters - emphasizes the concrete and calculable over the abstract and pure, and helps turn students into researchers without diminishing their sense of wonder at physics and nature.
As a one-year graduate-level course, Quantum Mechanics II: A Second Course in Quantum Theory leads from quant... |

| Discontinuous Finite Elements in Fluid Dynamics and Heat Transfer |
| Language:English | Channel:Mechanics |
The discontinuous finite element method (also known as the discontinuous Galerkin method) embodies the advantages of both finite element and finite difference methods. It can be used in convection-dominant applications while maintaining geometric flexibility and higher local approximations throught the use of higher-order elements. Element-by element connection propagates the effect of boundary conditions and the local formulation obviates the need for global matrix assembly. All of this adds up... |

| Statistical Mechanics |
| Language:English | Channel:Mechanics |
This is a unique and exciting graduate and advanced undergraduate text written by a highly respected physicist who had made significant contributions to the subject. This book conveys to the reader that statistical mechanics is a growing and lively subject. It deals with many modern topics from a physics standpoint in a very physical way. Particular emphasis is given to the fundamental assumption of statistical mechanics S=1n and its logical foundation. Calculational rules are derived without re... |

| Quantum Mechanics in Nonlinear Systems |
| Language:English | Channel:Mechanics |
In the history of physics and science, quantum mechanics has served as the foundation of modern science. This book discusses the properties of microscopic particles in nonlinear systems, principles of the nonlinear quantum mechanical theory, and its applications in condensed matter, polymers and biological systems.
The book is essentially composed of three parts. The first part presents a review of linear quantum mechanics, as well as theoretical and experimental fundamentals that es... |

| Cytoskeletal Mechanics: Models and Measurements |
| Language:English | Channel:Mechanics |
The purpose of this book is to present a full spectrum of views on current approaches to modeling cell mechanics. In part, this diversity of opinions stems from the different backgrounds of those who have contributed to the field. The authors of this book come from the biophysics, bioengineering, and physical chemistry communities, and each joins the discussion with their own unique perspective on biological systems. Consequently, the approaches range from finite element methods as commonly used... |

| Asymptotic Modelling of Fluid Flow Phenomena (Fluid Mechanics and Its Applications, Volume 64) |
| Language:English | Channel:Mechanics |
This is the first book devoted entirely to asymptotic modelling of fluid flow phenomena and deals with the art of the asymptotic modelling of Newtonian laminar fluid flows. This asymptotic modelling consists of deriving fluid flow model problems in such a way that they become amenable to mathematical analysis and to numerical simulations. The main goal of the text is modelling and not the presentation of solutions.
One may assume that for some time to come the further expansion of ... |

| Mechanics of Materials and Interfaces: The Disturbed State Concept |
| Language:English | Channel:Mechanics |
The disturbed state concept (DSC) is a relatively new development and until now has lacked extensive attention in a publication. Mechanics of Materials and Interfaces: The Disturbed State Concept is the first book on the unified modeling concept, based on fundamental and physical considerations. At the same time, it is simplified for practical applications. It emphasizes materials modeling to a great extent and will enjoy widespread use, especially among civil engineering and mechanics communiti... |

| Thin-Walled Composite Beams: Theory and Application (Solid Mechanics and Its Applications) |
| Language:English | Channel:Mechanics |
This is the first monograph devoted to the foundation of the theory of composite anisotropic thin-walled beams and to its applications in various problems involving the aeronautical/aerospace, helicopter, naval and mechanical structures. Throughout the theoretical part, an effort was made to provide the treatment of the subject by using the equations of the 3-D elasticity theory. Non-classical effects such as transverse shear, warping constraint, anisotropy of constituent materials yielding the ... |
