Auf der Grundlage eines beiden Gebieten gemeinsamen Konzepts wird fur Studenten der Physik und der Ingenieurwissenschaften eine Einfuhrung in die Fluid- und Thermodynamik gegeben. In der Fluiddynamik werden Hydrostatik, Hydrodynamik der idealen und viskosen Fluide sowie laminare und turbulente Rohrstromungen behandelt, in der Thermodynamik der erste und zweite Hauptsatz. Die Gasdynamik umfat Akustik, stationare isentrope Stromfadentheorie und Stotheorie, und so werden Fluid- und Thermodynamik miteinander verwoben. Angeschlossen ist - als Besonderheit - ein Kapitel uber Dimensionsanalyse und...

Die in diesem Buch vorgestellten vier Aufs tze von ausgewiesenen Fachleuten der Geschichte der Mechanik stellen I. Newtons "Principia," wohl das einflu reichste Physikbuch der Neuzeit, in den historischen Zusammenhang. E.A. Fellmann studiert die Wirkung des Buches auf die Zeitgenossen, vor allem auf Leibniz, C.A. Truesdell die auf seine Nachfolger, insbesondere L. Euler und die Begr nder der Kontinuumsmechanik, und schlie lich zeigt D. Speiser umgekehrt auf, wie Vorl ufer, insbesondere Huygens, Newtons Werk mitbestimmt haben. G. B hme stellt Newtons Werk, besonders auch "de Gravitatione" in...

This book delivers a thorough derivation of nonrelativistic interaction models of electromagnetic field theories with thermoelastic solids and viscous fluids, the intention being to derive unique representations for the observable field quantities. This volume is intended for and will be useful to students and researchers working on all aspects of electromagneto-mechanical interactions in the materials sciences of complex solids and fluids.

The last one or two decades have witnessed an increased interest in to pographic Rossby waves, both from a theoretical computational as well as an observational point of view. However, even though long periodic pro cesses were observed in lakes and ocean basins with considerable detail, it appears that interpretation in terms of physical models is not suffi ciently conclusive. The reasons for this lack in understanding may be sought both, in the insufficient spatial resolution or the brevity of the time series of the available data and the inadequacy of the theoretical understanding of long...

Es ist uns allen sicherlich hinliinglich bekannt, wenn vielleicht auch nicht in der notwendigen Schiirfe bewuBt, daB der Mensch und seine Umwelt in einer Wechselbeziehung zueinander stehen. Wiihrend Jahrtausenden - bis in die Anfiinge dieses Jahrhunderts hinein - bestand diese Beziehung weitgehend in einer Abhiingigkeit des Menschen von seiner Umwelt; er hatte gelernt, im Ein klang mit der Natur zu leben. Seit jiingster Zeit wird jedoch mit immens anwachsender Intensitiit die Umwelt - und damit sei hier der gesamte Erdball gemeint - mehr und mehr yom Menschen abhiingig. Dies hiingt eng...

This book was first published in 2005. When an oceanic tidal wave that is primarily active on the water surface passes an ocean shelf or a region with a seamount, it is split into a less energetic surface wave and other internal modes with different wavelengths and propagation speeds. This cascading process, from the barotropic tides to the baroclinic components, leads to the transformation of tidal energy into turbulence and heat, an important process for the dynamics of the lower ocean. Baroclinic Tides demonstrates the analytical and numerical methods used to study the generation and...

Mixture concepts are nowadays used in a great number of subjects of the - ological, chemical, engineering, natural and physical sciences (to name these alphabetically) and the theory of mixtures has attained in all these dis- plines a high level of expertise and specialisation. The digression in their development has on occasion led to di?erences in the denotation of special formulations as 'multi-phase systems' or 'non-classical mixtures', 'structured mixtures', etc., and their representatives or defenders often emphasise the di?erences of these rather than their common properties....

This account of thermomechanical behaviour of granular and porous materials deals with: experiments; theoretical deduction of macroscale equations; the macroscopic description in a continuum-thermodynamical and statistical context; and analysis of solutions by numerical techniques.

This book is a considerable outgrowth of lecture notes on Mechanics of en vironmentally related systems I, which I hold since more than ten years in the Department of Mechanics at the Darmstadt University of Technology for upper level students majoring in mechanics, mathematics, physics and the classical engineering sciences. These lectures form a canon of courses over three semesters in which I present the foundations of continuum physics (first semester), those of physical oceanography and limnology (second semester) and those of soil, snow and ice physics in the geophysical context (third...

Lakes are important habitats for many species and have always been extensively used by people for fishing and transport, as sources of drinking water and energy; and for recreation. The physical processes governing the water motion at and beneath the lake surface are described in this book. Fundamental physics using mathematical formulations, (2) measuring techniques and (3) analytical/numerical modelling are applied to describe barotropic and baroclinic linear and nonlinear oscillations, temperature and mass distributions, seasonal changes of the water stratification, wind-induced...
