Maximum Entropy and Bayesian Methods: Cambridge, England, 1988
ISBN: 9789048140442 / Angielski / Miękka / 526 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume records the proceedings of the Fourteenth International Workshop on Maximum Entropy and Bayesian Methods, held in Cambridge, England from August 1-5, 1994. Throughout applied science, Bayesian inference is giving high quality results augmented with reliabilities in the form of probability values and probabilistic error bars. Maximum Entropy, with its emphasis on optimally selected results, is an important part of this. Across wide areas of spectroscopy and imagery, it is now realistic to generate clear results with quantified reliability. This power is underpinned with a...

Technological Development and Science in the Industrial Age: New Perspectives on the Science-Technology Relationship
ISBN: 9789048141869 / Angielski / Miękka / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Historians and philosophers of technology are searching for new approaches to the study of the interaction between science and technology. New conceptual frameworks are necessary since the idea that technology is simply applied science is nothing short of a myth. The papers contained in this volume deal primarily with cognitive and social aspects of the science-technology issue. One of the most salient features of these papers is that they show a major methodological shift in studying the interaction between science and technology. Discussions of the science-technology issue have long been...

What Was Mechanical about Mechanics: The Concept of Force Between Metaphysics and Mechanics from Newton to Lagrange
ISBN: 9789048159253 / Angielski / Miękka / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Age of Reason is left the Dark Ages of the history of mechanics. Clifford A. Truesdell) 1. 1 THE INVISIBLE TRUTH OF CLASSICAL PHYSICS There are some questions that physics since the days of Newton simply cannot an- swer. Perhaps the most important of these can be categorized as 'questions of eth- ics', and 'questions of ultimate meaning'. The question of humanity's place in the cosmos and in nature is pre-eminently a philosophical and religious one, and physics seems to have little to contribute to answering it. Although physics claims to have made very fundamental discoveries about the...

Henceforth: Correspondence). This is the challenge Hooke presented to Isaac Newton (1642-1727) in a short but intense correspondence in the winter of 1679-80, which set Newton on course for his 1687 Principia, transforming the very concept of "the planetary...

Als wir 1970 die erste Auflage dieses Physikbuches vorlegten, geschah es in der Uberz- gung, dass die Physik als Grundlagenfach fur den Ingenieur in der Ausbildung und in der Praxis standig an Bedeutung gewinnt. Das gilt sicher heute mehr denn je. Besonders die immer wichtiger werdende sog. Hochtechnologie basiert unmittelbar auf grundlicher Beherrschung der Physik. Die Physik hat fur das technische Studium im Wesentlichen zwei Aufgaben zu erfullen: Einerseits sollen Kenntnisse uber physikalische Gesetzmassigkeiten vermittelt werden, die fur das Verstandnis und die Beherrschung technischer...
