Nonlinear Waves and Weak Turbulence - with Applications in Oceanography and Condensed Matter Physics (Hardcover, 1993 ed.):... Nonlinear Waves and Weak Turbulence - with Applications in Oceanography and Condensed Matter Physics (Hardcover, 1993 ed.)

This book is an outgrowth of the NSF-CBMS conference Nonlinear Waves GBP3 Weak Turbulence held at Case Western Reserve University in May 1992. The principal speaker at the conference was Professor V. E. Zakharov who delivered a series of ten lectures outlining the historical and ongoing developments in the field. Some twenty other researchers also made presentations and it is their work which makes up the bulk of this text. Professor Zakharov's opening chapter serves as a general introduction to the other papers, which for the most part are concerned with the application of the theory in various fields. While the word "turbulence" is most often associated with f:l. uid dynamics it is in fact a dominant feature of most systems having a large or infinite number of degrees of freedom. For our purposes we might define turbulence as the chaotic behavior of systems having a large number of degrees of freedom and which are far from thermodynamic equilibrium. Work in field can be broadly divided into two areas: * The theory of the transition from smooth laminar motions to the disordered motions characteristic of turbulence. * Statistical studies of fully developed turbulent systems. In hydrodynamics, work on the transition question dates back to the end of the last century with pioneering contributions by Osborne Reynolds and Lord Rayleigh.

R684 R591 Discovery Miles 5 910 Save R93 (14%) Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This introductory text examines concepts, ideas, results, and techniques related to symmetry groups and Laplacians. Its exposition is based largely on examples and applications of general theory. Topics include commutative harmonic analysis, representations of compact and finite groups, Lie groups, and the Heisenberg group and semidirect products. 1992 edition.
