  • Quantum Theory

    A Very Short Introduction

    by John Polkinghorne ...
    Series series Very Short Introductions
    Quantum Theory is the most revolutionary discovery in physics since Newton. This book gives a lucid, exciting, and accessible account of the surprising and counterintuitive ideas that shape our understanding of the sub-atomic world. It does not disguise the problems of interpretation that still remain unsettled 75 years after the initial discoveries. The main text makes no use of equations, but ... Read more

  • Ideas of Quantum Chemistry

    by Lucjan Piela ...
    Ideas of Quantum Chemistry shows how quantum mechanics is applied to chemistry to give it a theoretical foundation. From the Schroedinger equation to electronic and nuclear motion to intermolecular interactions, this book covers the primary quantum underpinnings of chemical systems. The structure of the book (a TREE-form) emphasizes the logical relationships among various topics, facts and methods ... Read more

  • Einstein in Matrix Form

    Exact Derivation of the Theory of Special and General Relativity without Tensors

    by Günter Ludyk ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book is an introduction to the theories of Special and General Relativity. The target audience are physicists, engineers and applied scientists who are looking for an understandable introduction to the topic - without too much new mathematics. The fundamental equations of Einstein's theory of Special and General Relativity are derived using matrix calculus, without the help of tensors. This ... Read more

  • From Spinors To Quantum Mechanics

    by Gerrit Coddens ...
    From Spinors to Quantum Mechanics discusses group theory and its use in quantum mechanics. Chapters 1 to 4 offer an introduction to group theory, and it provides the reader with an exact and clear intuition of what a spinor is, showing that spinors are just a mathematically complete notation for group elements. Chapter 5 contains the first rigorous derivation of the Dirac equation from a simple ... Read more

  • Characterization of Semiconductor Heterostructures and Nanostructures

    Edited by Giovanni Agostini, Carlo Lamberti ...
    Characterization of Semiconductor Heterostructures and Nanostructures is structured so that each chapter is devoted to a specific characterization technique used in the understanding of the properties (structural, physical, chemical, electrical etc..) of semiconductor quantum wells and superlattices. An additional chapter is devoted to ab initio modeling. The book has two basic aims. The first is ... Read more

  • Mathematical Elasticity

    Volume II: Theory of Plates

    by Philippe G. Ciarlet ...
    Series Book 27 - Studies in Mathematics and its Applications
    The objective of Volume II is to show how asymptotic methods, with the thickness as the small parameter, indeed provide a powerful means of justifying two-dimensional plate theories. More specifically, without any recourse to any a priori assumptions of a geometrical or mechanical nature, it is shown that in the linear case, the three-dimensional displacements, once properly scaled, converge in H1 ...

  • Rational Kinematics

    by Jorge Angeles ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    A rational study of kinematics is a treatment of the subject based on invariants, i.e., quantities that remain essentially unchanged under a change of observer. An observer is understood to be a reference frame supplied with a clock (Truesdell 1966). This study will therefore include an introduction to invariants. The language of these is tensor analysis and multilinear algebra, both of which ... Read more

  • Collisions Engineering: Theory and Applications

    by Michel Frémond ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This book investigates collisions occurring in the motion of solids, in the motion of fluids but also in the motion of pedestrians in crowds. The duration of these presented collisions is short compared to the whole duration of the motion: they are assumed instantaneous. The innovative concept demonstrated in this book is that a system made of two solids, is deformable because their relative ... Read more

  • Classical Mechanics

    Theory and Mathematical Modeling

    by Emmanuele DiBenedetto ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    Classical mechanics is a chief example of the scientific method organizing a "complex" collection of information into theoretically rigorous, unifying principles; in this sense, mechanics represents one of the highest forms of mathematical modeling. This textbook covers standard topics of a mechanics course, namely, the mechanics of rigid bodies, Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formalism, stability and ... Read more
