This book addresses the complex N-body problem, providing a general approach to show that many mass configurations can be solved deterministically. It gives the reader the tools to master binary, trinary, and quadruple structured configurations for real and theoretical work.
This monograph covers symmetries on a symplectic manifold, giving rise to quantum field theory via phase space and the Wigner function. This approach describes quantum chaos, introduces gauge symmetries, and leads to Symplectic Schrödinger, Klein-Gordon, and Dirac equations.
This book explores two pillars of dynamic systems engineering: modeling, analysis, and control, and model-based fault diagnosis. It equips readers with the tools to detect, isolate, and mitigate defects, providing the skills to identify and remedy potential system failures.
From Nonlinear Dynamics to Trigonometry’s Magic
This book unravels the mathematics of nonlinear dynamics using simple trigonometry. A tutorial for beginners and experts, it examines the fundamental example of Chaos, the Lorenz-Haken equations, with an original approach. For physicists, mathematicians, and students alike.
This volume addresses pivotal problems about our planet’s environment and ecology. It highlights inter-related topics from agriculture to global health and concludes with an ethical analysis of the multiple, overlapping challenges that require urgent attention.
This book sheds light on controversial questions about interventions on religious heritage buildings. Since Vatican II, the renewal of Catholic churches has been problematic for historic buildings. How can we reform what has already been reformed?
Ending the War Between Humanity and Nature
Why are we so unwilling to address the climate crisis? Humanity and nature are at war. This book argues the root cause is not simply economics, but the time-honored stories we tell ourselves about humanity’s place in (or out of) the natural world.
This book presents the development and implementation of a Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) numerical model for studying the initial spread of oil on a calm sea. The results are in concordance with James Fay’s pioneering predictions for oil slick diameters.
This volume offers key insights into sound scattering, covering scatterers, waveguides, hydroacoustic antennas, and loudspeakers. It details numerical solutions to complex problems using the boundary element method.
Virtual and Augmented Reality
This book explores the latest research in education design for virtual and augmented reality. Using numerous studies and examples, it will help the reader gain a better understanding of the nature of these realities and their applications in theory and practice.
This book develops novel mathematical models to investigate the impacts of GHG emissions on coastal and marine ecosystems. It introduces optimal control strategies to mitigate these impacts, providing new methods for scientists working to maintain a healthy environment.
For metrologists, this book provides deep knowledge on how to specify, calibrate, and measure with ultrasonic flow meters to meet legal requirements in custody transfer and fiscal applications for water, oil, and natural gas.
This book explores the nonlinear features of natural phenomena through mathematical models. It focuses on practical methods to investigate these problems, presenting approaches applicable to a wide class of nonlinear equations and guiding even uninitiated readers.
This book presents the direct integration method, a tool for analyzing the elastic response of nonhomogeneous solids to thermal and force loadings. By reducing elasticity problems to integral equations, this method provides efficient, closed-form solutions for these materials.
The Labeled Multi-Bernoulli Filter
This guide to labeled multi-Bernoulli filters for multi-object tracking combines essential theory with practical code examples. Learn to develop your own dependable tracking systems, easily adapted for applications in robotics, automotive engineering, and public safety.
This book uses complexity research to overcome the categorizations and opposites that limit our descriptions of existence. It offers innovative philosophical insights to arrive at a unified vision of nature and society, governed by the same laws of non-linearity.
This is the first book to present the direct method for solving inverse problems in X-ray spectroscopy, scattering, tomography, and reflectometry. It discusses the theory for multilayer structures and the phase problem in electron structural crystallography.
The Rehabilitation of Historic Schools in Portugal
This book examines the adaptation of heritage schools for 21st-century needs. Using rehabilitated schools in Portugal as a case study, it assesses the effects of design decisions on cultural values, showing how material conservation can enhance the intangible.
This book discusses advances in titanium dioxide nanocomposites. These materials have photocatalytic, virucidal, and antimicrobial efficacy for cleaning water and air, and can split water to generate chemical fuels, aiding in green and sustainable development.
This book integrates Western science with Oriental philosophy, proposing a unified theory of physics. Using a simple mathematical model, it explains the fundamental concepts of dynamics, connecting Newtonian mechanics, relativity, and quantum wave dynamics.
