The Social Life of Materials: Studies in Materials and Society
ISBN: 9781472592644 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Materials play a central role in society. Beyond the physical and chemical properties of materials, their cultural properties have often been overlooked in anthropological studies: finished products have been perceived as 'social' yet the materials which comprise them are considered 'raw' or natural'. The Social Life of Materials proposes a new perspective in this interdisciplinary field. Diverting attention from the consumption of objects, the book looks towards the properties of materials and how these exist through many transformations in a variety of cultural...

Maimonides: The Exceptional Mind
ISBN: 9781530780013 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 354 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) An examination of the remarkable penetrating mind of Moses Maimonides and to his rational eye-opening thoughts on many subjects. It includes ideas that are not incorporated in the usual books about this great philosopher because they are so different than the traditional thinking of the vast majority of people. It contrasts the notions of other Jewish thinkers, somewhat rational and others not rational at all. The reader will be surprised, if not shocked, to learn that a host of beliefs that are prevalent among the Jewish masses have no rational basis. This does not suggest that Judaism...

The Navier-Stokes Equations: A Classification of Flows and Exact Solutions
ISBN: 9780521681629 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Navier-Stokes equations were firmly established in the 19th Century as the system of nonlinear partial differential equations which describe the motion of most commonly occurring fluids in air and water, and since that time exact solutions have been sought by scientists. Collectively these solutions allow a clear insight into the behavior of fluids, providing a vehicle for novel mathematical methods and a useful check for computations in fluid dynamics, a field in which theoretical research is now dominated by computational methods. This 2006 book draws together exact solutions from...

Solitons: An Introduction
ISBN: 9780521336550 / Angielski / Miękka / 1989 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Solitons: An Introduction discusses the theory of solitons and its diverse applications to nonlinear systems that arise in the physical sciences. Drazin and Johnson explain the generation and properties of solitons, introducing the mathematical technique known as the Inverse Scattering Tranform. Their aim is to present the essence of inverse scattering clearly, rather than rigorously or completely. Thus, the prerequisites are merely what is found in standard courses on mathematical physics and more advanced material is explained in the text with useful references to further reading given at...

Hydrodynamic Stability
ISBN: 9780521525411 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 628 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book begins with a basic introduction to three major areas of hydrodynamic stability: thermal convection, rotating and curved flows, and parallel shear flows. There follows a comprehensive account of the mathematical theory for parallel shear flows. A number of applications of the linear theory are discussed, including the effects of stratification and unsteadiness. The emphasis throughout is on the ideas involved, the physical mechanisms, the methods used, and the results obtained. Wherever possible, the theory is related to both experimental and numerical results. A distinctive feature...
