This text provides an introduction to the science that governs the interaction of light and matter (in the gas phase). It provides readers with the basic knowledge to exploit the light-matter interaction to develop quantitative tools for gas analysis (i.e. optical diagnostics) and understand and interpret the results of spectroscopic measurements. The authors pair the basics of gas‐phase spec…
This open access book introduces and explains machine learning (ML) algorithms and techniques developed for statistical inferences on a complex process or system and their applications to simulations of chemically reacting turbulent flows. These two fields, ML and turbulent combustion, have large body of work and knowledge on their own, and this book brings them together and explain the comp…
Dieses Buch ist eine „Open Access“-Publikation zum Stand der Entwicklung der Elektromobilität. Ohne Zweifel: Die Automobilindustrie befindet sich in einem tiefgreifenden Wandel. Mit der Elektromobilität verändern sich bisherige Fahrzeug- und Antriebskonzepte grundlegend. Bestimmt durch neue Fahrzeugkomponenten wie die Batterie, die Leistungselektronik, der Elektromotor und die Brennstoff…
Setiap pengukuran dan pencarian fisika baru yang dilakukan di Large Hadron Collider dipengaruhi oleh aspek Kromodinamik Kuantum (QCD) dalam beberapa hal. Ketidakpastian yang terkait dengan pemodelan emisi quark dan gluon bisa sangat besar, dan oleh karena itu penting untuk melakukan pengukuran presisi di berbagai kondisi akhir yang sensitif terhadap emisi tersebut. Pengukuran tersebut membantu …
This textbook covers the thermodynamics needed by chemical engineers both in their engineering and in their chemistry; it is intended for use in all undergraduate and some graduate-level courses. The authors emphasize a rigorous yet concise presentation of the fundamental chemical concepts governing the behavior of single and multicomponent mixtures, including phase and chemical equilibria. In …
Experimental and theoretical approaches to global brain dynamics that draw on the latest research in the field. The consideration of time or dynamics is fundamental for all aspects of mental activity--perception, cognition, and emotion--because the main feature of brain activity is the continuous change of the underlying brain states even in a constant environment. The application of nonlinear …
"This is a story about a man and his equation. We learn in this story that entropy is the central quantity in something called the second law of thermodynamics. The second law is always on, running in the background of our lives, providing us with a way to differentiate between past and future. It provides us with an arrow of time: we know that the future will be a state of higher entropy than …
An account of the concepts and intellectual structure of classical thermodynamics that reveals the subject's simplicity and coherence. Students of physics, chemistry, and engineering are taught classical thermodynamics through its methods--a "problems first" approach that neglects the subject's concepts and intellectual structure. In Thermodynamic Weirdness , Don Lemons fills this gap, offering…
"Marine Hydrodynamics was specifically designed to meet the need for an ocean hydrodynamics text that is up-to-date in terms of both content and approach. The book is solidly based on fundamentals, but it also guides the student to an understanding of their engineering applications through its consideration of realistic configurations."OCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record.
"This is the first full exposition in print of a subject in whose development over the past fifteen years the author has been a prime participant. As an approach to the study of mechanical vibrations, statistical energy analysis (SEA) has found new applications and adherents with each passing year. The name SEA was coined to emphasize the essential feature of the approach: "Statistical" indicat…
