This first volume covers the mechanics of point particles, gravitation, extended systems (starting from the two-body system), the basic concepts of relativistic mechanics and the mechanics of rigid bodies and fluids.

It is part of a four-volume textbook, which covers electromagnetism, mechanics, fluids and thermodynamics, and waves and light, and is designed to reflect the typical syllabus during the first two years of a calculus-based university physics program.

Throughout all four volumes, particular attention is paid to in-depth clarification of conceptual aspects, and to...

Das klassische Lehrbuch der Experimentalphysik von R.W. Pohl mit seiner klaren und einpragsamen, stets vom Experiment ausgehenden Darstellung der physikalischen Grundlagen, erscheint in einer neuen, uberarbeiteten Auflage, ausgestattet mit einem modernen Layout fur noch bessere Ubersichtlichkeit. Eine wesentliche Erganzung des Buches sind die Videofilme, die viele Abbildungen "lebendig" werden lassen und typisch Pohl'sche Schauversuche dokumentieren. Um leichter zuganglich zu sein, sind sie nun auch direkt an der zugehorigen Textstelle abrufbar.

Der vorliegende erste Band enthalt die...

Das vorliegende Werk bietet in seiner vollstandig uberarbeiteten dritten Auflage eine hervorragende Begleitung fur Physik-Praktika im Bachelorstudium. In 12 Kapiteln mit insgesamt 52 Themenkreisen werden mehr als 200 Einzelaufgaben jeweils mit Zielsetzung, Literaturangaben, physikalischen Grundlagen, Geratezubehor sowie Hinweisen zu Messung und Auswertung ausfuhrlich beschrieben. Rundum ein innovatives Buch fur alle Studierenden mit Haupt- oder Nebenfach Physik. Die Neuauflage enthalt neue Experimente zu Mikrowellen, Polarisation, Flussigkristallen, Rontgenstrahlung, Gamma-Spektroskopie...

This book presents current spatial and temporal multiscaling approaches of materials modeling. Recent results demonstrate the deduction of macroscopic properties at the device and component level by simulating structures and materials sequentially on atomic, micro- and mesostructural scales. The book covers precipitation strengthening and fracture processes in metallic alloys, materials that exhibit ferroelectric and magnetoelectric properties as well as biological, metal-ceramic and polymer composites. The progress which has been achieved documents the current state of art in multiscale...

This book focuses on basic and advanced concepts of wave propagation in diverse material systems and structures. Topics are organized in increasing order of complexity for better appreciation of the subject. Additionally, the book provides basic guidelines to design many of the futuristic materials and devices for varied applications. The material in the book also can be used for designing safer and more lightweight structures such as aircraft, bridges, and mechanical and structural components. The main objective of this book is to bring both the introductory and the advanced topics of...

This little gem of a book from the mid-19th Century is a treasury of ingenious mechanisms. With over 507 entries, this mini-encyclopedia explains the inner workings of a variety of machines. Spanning pneumatics, hydraulics, presses, steam engines, horologes, and more, "507 Mechanical Movements" highlights the small components that make amazingly complex machinery possible.

Each mechanism gets its own entry, including a brief description of the mechanism in question, its applications, and its operation. Clearly drawn diagrams illustrate the mechanism's movements and functions. This...

Process machines are critical to the profitability of processes. Safe, efficient and reliable machines are required to maintain dependable manufacturing processes that can create saleable, on-spec product on time, and at the desired production rate. As the wards of process machinery, we wish to keep our equipment in serviceable condition.

One of the most challenging aspects of a machinery professional or operator's job is deciding whether an operating machine should be shut down due to a perceived problem or be allowed to keep operating. If he or she wrongly recommends a repair be...

Written by two well-respected experts in the field, The Finite Element Method for Boundary Value Problems: Mathematics and Computations bridges the gap between applied mathematics and application-oriented computational studies using FEM. Mathematically rigorous, the FEM is presented as a method of approximation for differential operators that are mathematically classified as self-adjoint, non-self-adjoint, and non-linear, thus addressing totality of all BVPs in various areas of engineering, applied mathematics, and physical sciences. These classes of operators are utilized in...

In recent decades, metrology--an accurate and precise technology of high quality for automotive engines--has garnered a great deal of scientific interest due to its unique advanced soft engineering techniques in design and diagnostics. Used in a variety of scientific applications, these techniques are now widely regarded as safer, more efficient, and more effective than traditional ones. This book compiles and details the cutting-edge research in science and engineering from the Egyptian Metrology Institute (National Institute for Standards) that is revolutionizing advanced dimensional...

The book provides a concise and rigor introduction to the fundamentals of methods for solving the principal problems of modern non-linear dynamics. This monograph covers the basic issues of the theory of integrable systems and the theory of dynamical chaos both in nonintegrable conservative and in dissipative systems. A distinguishing feature of the material exposition is to add some comments, historical information, brief biographies and portraits of the researchers who made the most significant contribution to science. This allows one to present the material as accessible and attractive...
