This book is aimed at researchers who need to write clear and understandable manuscripts in English. Today, English is the official language of international conferences and most important publication
LIGO's recent discovery of gravitational waves was headline news around the world. Many people will want to understand more about what a gravitational wave is, how LIGO works, and how LIGO functions a
Experiments since 1911 prove that the distance between nuclear particles constituting atomic bodies is a hundred thousand times larger than the diameters of these particles. Hence the volumes of all a

With its emphasis on boundary layer flow and basic sediment transport modelling, this handbook is meant to fill the gap between general hydrodynamics and descriptive and coastal sedimentary processes.
Surveys new ideas for extracting information from sensor data in order to bless machines with vision. The 20 papers cover model-driven and data-driven feature extraction, neural networks for image ana
Two mathematicians from the Byelorussian State University present new results on the theory of a class of integrals know as the H-function of two variables, first introduced in 1978. The self-contain
A textbook based on lectures delivered in Kyotoa, 1989. Martin argues that the Potts models, though a special class of statistical mechanical models, are, nonetheless, richly structured enough to illu
Presents a unified treatment for a branch of the theory of functional equations, the main idea being to use the fundamental results about spectral synthesis on discrete abelian groups. Acidic paper. A
Discusses the physical consequences of the symmetries of the Wigner function in phase space, for scientists and students who wish to study the basic principles of the phase-space picture of quantum me
A collection of reprints related to the Yang-Baxter equation (also called the star-triangle relation, the triangle equation, and the factorization equation). The papers are grouped into seven sections
This book is an exposition on the interesting interplay between topological dynamics and the theory of C*-algebras. Researchers working in topological dynamics from various fields in mathematics are b
This invaluable book provides both an introduction to the rudiments of perturbative string theory and a more detailed introduction to the more current topic of D-brane dynamics. The approach taken is
The book presents a unified and self-sufficient and reader-friendly introduction to the anisotropic elasticity theory necessary to model a wide range of point, line, planar and volume type crystal def
This guidebook is for college instructors who teach a course in Introduction to Logic at a teachers college or provide a workshop in this subject for in-service mathematics teachers. It can also be us
This book provides a broad introduction to the three key modules behind the design and development of intelligent vehicles for the ultimate purpose of actively ensuring driving safety as well as preve
The objective here is to introduce the elements of stochastic processes in a rather concise manner where we present the two most important parts in stochastic processes — Markov chains and stochastic
This elegant book presents a rigorous introduction to the theory of nonlinear mechanics and chaos. It turns out that many simple mechanical systems suffer from a peculiar malady. They are deterministi

Catalysis literature can be difficult to read if there is not a sufficient understanding of the underlying connections between the chemical, materials and engineering aspects of catalysis. As a result
This book provides a complete introduction and overview to the rapidly expanding field of extrasolar planets and brown dwarfs. The following topics are covered: observational techniques, surveys, stud
"This book provides both the theoretical foundation, as well as the authors' latest contributions to micromechanics and its applications in nanomechanics, nanocomposites, dislocation and thin film the
This is a paperbound reprint of a 1998 book, about which Book News wrote: With a view to not overwhelming graduate students or researchers with advanced technical details, three Hewlett-Packard scient
