Linear and Nonlinear Waves (Paperback): G.B. Whitham Linear and Nonlinear Waves (Paperback)
G.B. Whitham
R4,436 Discovery Miles 44 360 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Now in an accessible paperback edition, this classic work is just as relevant as when it first appeared in 1974, due to the increased use of nonlinear waves. It covers the behavior of waves in two parts, with the first part addressing hyperbolic waves and the second addressing dispersive waves. The mathematical principles are presented along with examples of specific cases in communications and specific physical fields, including flood waves in rivers, waves in glaciers, traffic flow, sonic booms, blast waves, and ocean waves from storms.

Classical Guitar Design (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2020): Giuseppe Cuzzucoli, Mario Garrone Classical Guitar Design (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2020)
Giuseppe Cuzzucoli, Mario Garrone
R3,723 Discovery Miles 37 230 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book describes the entire process of designing guitars, including the theory and guidelines for implementing it in practice. It discusses areas from acoustics and resonators to new tools and how they assist traditional construction techniques. The book begins by discussing the fundamentals of the sounds of a guitar, strings, and oscillating systems. It then moves on to resonators and acoustics within the guitar, explaining the analysis systems and evaluation methods, and comparing classic and modern techniques. Each area of the guitar is covered, from the soundboard and the back, to the process of closing the instrument. The book concludes with an analysis of historic and modern guitars. This book is of interest to luthiers wanting to advance their practice, guitar players wishing to learn more about their instruments, and academics in engineering and physics curious about the principles of acoustics when applied to musical instruments.

Introduction to Algebraic and Constructive Quantum Field Theory (Hardcover): John C. Baez, Irving E. Segal, Zhengfang Zhou Introduction to Algebraic and Constructive Quantum Field Theory (Hardcover)
John C. Baez, Irving E. Segal, Zhengfang Zhou
R4,809 Discovery Miles 48 090 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

The authors present a rigorous treatment of the first principles of the algebraic and analytic core of quantum field theory. Their aim is to correlate modern mathematical theory with the explanation of the observed process of particle production and of particle-wave duality that heuristic quantum field theory provides. Many topics are treated here in book form for the first time, from the origins of complex structures to the quantization of tachyons and domains of dependence for quantized wave equations. This work begins with a comprehensive analysis, in a universal format, of the structure and characterization of free fields, which is illustrated by applications to specific fields. Nonlinear local functions of both free fields (or Wick products) and interacting fields are established mathematically in a way that is consistent with the basic physical constraints and practice. Among other topics discussed are functional integration, Fourier transforms in Hilbert space, and implementability of canonical transformations. The authors address readers interested in fundamental mathematical physics and who have at least the training of an entering graduate student. A series of lexicons connects the mathematical development with the underlying physical motivation or interpretation. The examples and problems illustrate the theory and relate it to the scientific literature. Originally published in 1992.

R1,138 Discovery Miles 11 380 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Die vollstandige Berechnung und Darstellung von Schallvorgangen macht schon in den Fallen, wo es sich im einfaohe Strahleranordnungen handelt, nicht unerhebliche Schwierigkeiten. Damit hangt es wohl zu- sammen, dass eine systematische Behandlung daruber nicht vorliegt. Im folgenden wird der Versuch gemacht, die grundlegenden Formeln und Begriffe zu entwickeln und an einer Reihe von einfachen Beispielen praktisch anzuwenden. Dabei erscheint es wegen der ausserordentlichen Vereinfaohung naturgemass, die Berechnung zunachst auf das Gebiet in grosser Entfernung vom Strahler zu beschranken. Bei dieser Ein- schrankung ergibt sich der UEbergang vom ungerichteten zum gerichteten Strahler sehr einfach, indem die Formeln des ungerichteten Schall- senders durch einen zusatzlichen Faktor, der als Richtfaktor bzw. Strah- lungsfaktor gekennzeichnet ist, erganzt werden. Auch maoht dann die Berechnung des Sohallfeldes von solchen Membranen, die im Gegensatz zur Kolbenmembran keine konstante Sohwingungsamplitude hab:: m oder Knotenlinien besitzen, keine besonderen Schwierigkeiten. Der zweite Teil behandelt die Darstellung des in unmittelbarer Nahe des Strahlers vorhandenen Schallfeldes. Der zunachst untersuchte Fall von zwei punktfoermigen Strahlern zeigt bereits, dass jetzt ganz wesent- lich kompliziertere Verhaltnisse vorliegen. Man ist daher auch ge- zwungen, das Schallfeld an jeder Stelle zu beschreiben. Das geschieht am einfachsten, indem man die Kurven zeichnet, fur welche die Druck- amplitude einen konstanten Wert besitzt. Oft ist es jedoch auch zweck- voll, Kurven konstanter Phase zu berechnen. Im Falle der kreisfoermigen Kolbenmembran, der praktisch von besonderer Bedeutung ist, ist es wesentlich, dass wenigstens die Werte auf der Mittelachse, auch in in- mittelbarer Nahe, sehr einfach angegeben werden koennen.

Die Lehre vom Schall, die Akustik, beschreibt die Vorgange der mechanischen Schwingungen und ihre Ausbreitung in festen, flussigen oder gasfoermigen Stoffen. Im leeren Raum gibt es keinen Schall, weil es die Materieteilchen selbst sind, die schwingen, im Gegensatz etwa zu den Lichtschwingungen oder Hochfrequenz schwingungen, bei denen der elektrische und magnetische Zustand des Raumes an sich schwingt. Durch eine Schallwelle in Luft wird ein kleines Luftvolumen aus seiner Ruhelage heraus hin- und herbewegt, wahrend eine Lichtwelle den Bewegungszustand des Raumes nicht beeinflusst. Unterscheidet man solche mechanischen Bewegungen in Materie, die wenigstens eine zeitlang regelmassig wiederkehren, also periodisch sind, durch die Anzahl der Perioden in der Sekunde voneinander, so koennen wir einen Bereich abgrenzen, in dem sich unser Ohr zum Nachweis eignet: Wir hoeren den Schall, wenn er durch die Luft oder unseren Koerper an unser Ohr gelangt und wenn seine Frequenz weder zu tief noch zu hoch ist. Unter etwa 10 Hz (Hertz, d. h. Schwingungen in der Sekunde) hoeren wir keinen Ton, auch nicht mehr uber etwa 15000 bis 20000 Hz. (Das erstere ist allerdings nur dann richtig, wenn es sich um eine sinusfoermige Schwingung handelt. Andere Formen zerlegt das Ohr in Obertoene, wodurch die Schwingung als Ton- oder Knallfolge hoerbar wird. ) AEhnlich wie man im Bereich der Lichtwellen, die unserem Auge nicht mehr wahrnehmbaren, hoeheren Frequenzen als Ultraviolett bezeichnet, hat man die Schallwellen uber 20000 Hz als Ultraschall abgegrenzt.

Plausibilitat wird im Kontext existierender Modelle fur perzeptive Messungen dargestellt und die Anforderungen werden diskutiert, die an den Begriff gestellt werden, wenn er im psychoakustischen Sinn als Messgroesse aufgefasst wird.

From Perturbative to Constructive Renormalization (Hardcover): V. Rivasseau From Perturbative to Constructive Renormalization (Hardcover)
V. Rivasseau
R5,251 Discovery Miles 52 510 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

The last decade has seen striking progress in the subject of renormalization in quantum field theory. The old subject of perturbative renormalization has been revived by the use of powerful methods such as multiscale decompositions; precise estimates have been added to the initial theorems on finiteness of renormalized perturbation theory, with new results on its large order asymptotics. Furthermore, constructive field theory has reached one of its major goals, the mathematically rigorous construction of some renormalizable quantum field theories. For these models one can in particular investigate rigorously the phenomenon of asymptotic freedom, which plays a key role in our current understanding of the interaction among elementary particles. However, until this book, there has been no pedagogical synthesis of these new developments. Vincent Rivasseau, who has been actively involved in them, now describes them for a wider audience. There are, in fact, common concepts at the heart of the progress on perturbative and constructive techniques. Exploiting these similarities, the author uses perturbative renormalization, which is the more widely known and conceptually simpler of the two cases, to explain the less familiar but more mathematically meaningful constructive renormalization. Originally published in 1991. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
