Why are chemists so great at solving problems? Because they have all the solutions! Get it? Knowing how mixtures and solutions work makes our lives easier and more enjoyable. Examine the molecules beh
"Beep, beep, beep! Whirrrr. From loud and annoying to peaceful and relaxing, sounds are an ever-present part of life. Sound not only helps us send messages to one another, but also tells us about our
Introduces the concepts of forces and motion, covering such topics as the different types of forces, how force and motion have been studied throughout history, the laws that govern them, and simple ma
Introduces the concept of energy, covering such topics as the different types of energy, how they can be converted into different forms, sources of energy useful to humans, and renewable energy resour
Introduces light, covering such topics as the nature of light, how it is produced artificially, the different types of light, light waves, how light travels, colors, how it is perceived, how vision is
Introduces the concept of electricity, covering such topics as its ubiquity in the world, how it has been studied throughout history, its use in batteries, and its relation to magnetism.
Describes the microscopes used throughout the years to look at small objects, including atoms, culminating in the confocal microscope, which can produce a three-dimensional picture.
This book is the first to present the application of the hybrid system theory to systems with EPCA (equations with piecewise continuous arguments). The hybrid system paradigm is a valuable modeling to
This book provides students and researchers with a systematic solution for fluid-induced structural vibrations, galloping instability and the chaos of cables. They will also gain a better understandin
This book focuses on a particular domain of Type-2 Fuzzy Logic, related to process modeling and control applications. It deepens readers’understanding of Type-2 Fuzzy Logic with regard to the followin
This book is devoted to bifurcation theory for autonomous and nonautonomous differential equations with discontinuities of different types. That is, those with jumps present either in the right-hand-s
This book presents detailed descriptions of chaos for continuous-time systems. It is the first-ever book to consider chaos as an input for differential and hybrid equations. Chaotic sets and chaotic f
This unique book presents the discretization of continuous systems and implicit mapping dynamics of periodic motions to chaos in continuous nonlinear systems. The stability and bifurcation theory of f
"Complex Systems: Fractionality, Time-delay and Synchronization" covers the most recent developments and advances in the theory and application of complex systems in these areas. Each chapter was writ
“Hamiltonian Chaos Beyond the KAM Theory: Dedicated to George M. Zaslavsky (1935—2008)” covers the recent developments and advances in the theory and application of Hamiltonian chaos in nonlinear Hami
"Discontinuous Dynamical Systems on Time-varying Domains" is the first monograph focusing on this topic. While in the classic theory of dynamical systems the focus is on dynamical systems on time-inva
