Particles and Nuclei An Introduction to the Physical Concepts


Free Download Particles and Nuclei: An Introduction to the Physical Concepts By Professor Dr. Bogdan Povh, Professor Dr. Klaus Rith, Dr. Christoph Scholz, Dr. Frank Zetsche (auth.)
1995 | 340 Pages | ISBN: 3540594396 | PDF | 14 MB
This introductory textbook gives a unified presentation of nuclear and particle physics from an experimental point of view. The first part of the book, Analysis, is devoted to disentangling the substructure of matter. This part shows that experiments designed to uncover the substructures of nuclei and nucleons have a similar conceptual basis, and lead to the present picture of all matter being built out of a small number of elementary building blocks and a small number of fundamental interactions.The second part, Synthesis, shows how the elementary particles may be combined to build hadrons and nuclei. The fundamental interactions which are responsible for the forces in all systems become less and less evident in increasing complex syystems. Such systems are in fact dominated by many-body phenomena.This concise text is based on lectures held at the University of Heidelberg and is well suited for undergraduate courses. It includes numerous exercises with worked answers.

A novel modeling methodology that blends cyber and physical components is a significant advancement for future energy systems. A Cyber-Physical System (CPS) is an integrated component of physical microgrids that combines computers, wireless connections, and controls to create a holistic solution. As a result of cyber-physical systems, a new generation of engineering systems incorporating wireless communication has begun to emerge. Despite that there are various major CPS systems in use today, one of the most challenging sectors for implementation is the smart grid which aims to distribute dependable and efficient electric energy while maintaining a high level of global environmental sustainability.

Stochastic Modelling in Physical Oceanography


Free Download Stochastic Modelling in Physical Oceanography By Andrew F. Bennett (auth.), Robert J. Adler, Peter Müller, Boris L. Rozovskii (eds.)
1996 | 466 Pages | ISBN: 1461275334 | PDF | 28 MB
The study of the ocean is almost as old as the history of mankind itself. When the first seafarers set out in their primitive ships they had to understand, as best they could, tides and currents, eddies and vortices, for lack of understanding often led to loss of live. These primitive oceanographers were, of course, primarily statisticians. They collected what empirical data they could, and passed it down, ini tially by word of mouth, to their descendants. Data collection continued throughout the millenia, and although data bases became larger, more re liable, and better codified, it was not really until surprisingly recently that mankind began to try to understand the physics behind these data, and, shortly afterwards, to attempt to model it. The basic modelling tool of physical oceanography is, today, the partial differential equation. Somehow, we all ‘know" that if only we could find the right set of equations, with the right initial and boundary conditions, then we could solve the mysteries of ocean dynamics once and for all.

The Ontology of Physical Objects Four-Dimensional Hunks of Matter


Free Download Mark Heller, "The Ontology of Physical Objects: Four-Dimensional Hunks of Matter"
English | 2008 | pages: 180 | ISBN: 052138544X, 0521069491 | DJVU | 1,2 mb
This provocative new book attempts to resolve traditional problems of identity over time. It seeks to answer such questions as "How is it that an object can survive change?" and "How much change can an object undergo without being destroyed?" To answer these questions Professor Heller presents a completely new theory about the nature of physical objects and about the relationship between our language and the physical world. According to his theory, the only actually existing physical entities are what the author calls "hunks," four dimensional objects extending across time and space. This is a major new contribution to ontological debate and will be essential reading for all philosophers concerned with metaphysics.
