English | 2024 | ISBN: 9819766060 | 269 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 25 MB
This book presents the effective combination of mathematical statistics, general metrology, and textile metrology to allow data analysis with regard to the evaluation of parameters of fibrous structures. Specialists working in material sciences, where fibrous structures are used, comprehensively understand the specifics of the fabric evaluation and manage in the context of rational use of selected mathematical and statistical methods. In this book, selected methods that are advantageous for data analysis, regardless of whether they are elementary or advanced are presented. The so-called computer-intensive methods are used in many situations when classical statistics is unable to offer a solution, or the solution is too complicated.

Statistical Network Analysis Models, Issues, and New Directions ICML 2006 Workshop on Statistical Network Analysis, Pittsburg


Free Download Statistical Network Analysis: Models, Issues, and New Directions: ICML 2006 Workshop on Statistical Network Analysis, Pittsburgh, PA, USA, June 29, 2006, Revised Selected Papers By Aaron Clauset, Cristopher Moore, Mark E. J. Newman (auth.), Edoardo Airoldi, David M. Blei, Stephen E. Fienberg, Anna Goldenberg, Eric P. Xing, Alice X. Zheng (eds.)
2007 | 200 Pages | ISBN: 3540731326 | PDF | 7 MB
This volume was prepared to share with a larger audience the exciting ideas and work presented at an ICML 2006 workshop of the same title. Network models have a long history. Sociologists and statisticians made major advances in the 1970s and 1980s, culminating in part with a number of substantial databases and the class of exponential random graph models and related methods in the early 1990s. Physicists and computer scientists came to this domain cons- erably later, but they enriched the array of models and approaches and began to tackle much larger networks and more complex forms of data. Our goal in organ- ing the workshop was to encourage a dialog among people coming from di?erent disciplinary perspectives and with di?erent methods, models, and tools. Both the workshop and the editing of the proceedings was a truly colla- rative e?ort on behalf of all six editors, but three in particular deserve special recognition. Anna Goldenberg and Alice Zheng were the driving force behind the entire enterprise and Edo Airoldi assisted on a number of the more important arrangements.

Statistical Rock Physics (Earth and Environmental Sciences Library)


Free Download Statistical Rock Physics (Earth and Environmental Sciences Library) by Gabor Korvin
English | April 7, 2024 | ISBN: 3031466993 | 550 pages | MOBI | 46 Mb
The book is the first systematic and comprehensive treatise of stochastic models and computational tools that have emerged in rock-physics in the last 20 years. The field of statistical rock-physics is a part of rock-physics (Petrophysics). Its concepts, methods and techniques are borrowed from stochastic geometry and statistical physics. This discipline describes the interior geometry of rocks; derives their effective physical properties based on their random composition and the random arrangement of their constituents; and builds models to simulate the past geological processes that had formed the rock.

Statistical Theory of Open Systems Volume 1 A Unified Approach to Kinetic Description of Processes in Active Systems

1995 | 569 Pages | ISBN: 0792332423 | PDF | 40 MB
Let us begin by quoting from the Preface to the author’s Statistical Physics (Moscow, Nauka 1982; also published in English by Harwood in 1986): ”’My God! Yet another book on statistical physics! There’s no room on my bookshelves left!’ Such emotionsare quite understandable. Beforejumping to conclusions, however, it would be worthwhile to read the Introduction and look through the table of contents. Then the reader will find that this book is totally different from the existing courses, fundamental and concise. … We do not use the conventional division into statistical theories ofequilibrium and nonequilibrium states. Rather than that, the theory ofnonequilibrium state is the basis and the backbone oftheentirecourse. … This approach allows us to develop a unified method for statistical description ofa very broadclassofsystems. … The author certainly does not wish to exaggerate the advantages of the book, considering it asjustthe first attemptto create a textbookofa new kind." The next step in this direction was the author’s Turbulent Motion and the Structure of Chaos (Moscow, Nauka 1990; Kluwer Academic ✅Publishers 1991). This book is subtitled A New Approach to the Statistical Theory of Open Systems. Naturally, the "new approach" is not meant to defy the consistent and efficient methods of the conventional statistical theory; itshould be regarded as auseful reinforcementofsuch methods.

Fracture Mechanics and Statistical Mechanics of Reinforced Elastomeric Blends

Elastomers are found in many applications ranging from technology to daily life applications for example in tires, drive systems, sealings and print rollers. Dynamical operation conditions put extremely high demands on the performance and stability of these materials and their elastic and flow properties can be easily adjusted by simple manipulations on their elastic and viscous properties.However, the required service life suffers often from material damage as a result of wear processes such as abrasion and wear fatigue, mostly caused by crack formation and propagation.This book covers interdisciplinary research between physics, physical chemistry, material sciences and engineering of elastomers within the range from nanometres to millimetres and connects these aspects with the constitutive material properties. The different chapters describe reliable lifetime and durability predictions based on new fracture mechanical testing concepts and advanced material-theoretical methods which are finally implemented in the finite element method for structural simulations. The use of this approach allows a realistic description of complex geometrical and loading conditions which includes the peculiarities of the mechanical behaviour of elastomeric materials in detail. Furthermore, this approach demonstrates how multi-scale research concepts provide an ambitious interdisciplinary challenge at the interface between engineering and natural sciences.This book covers the interests of academic researchers, graduate students and professionals working in polymer science, rubber and tire technology and in materials science at the interface of academic and industrial research.

1999 | 430 Pages | ISBN: 3642084109 | PDF | 9 MB
This two-volume work provides a comprehensive study of the statistical mechanics of lattice models. It introduces the reader to the main areas in statistical mechanics and the theory of phase transitions. The development is built on a firm mathematical and physical basis. Volume 1 contains an account of mean-field and cluster variation methods successfully used in many applications in solid-state physics and theoretical chemistry as well as an account of exact results for the Ising and six-vertex models and those derivable by transformation methods. Volume 2 includes extensive treatments of scaling theory, algebraic and real-space group renormalization methods and the eight-vertex model. It also includes an account of series methods and a treatment of dimer assemblies.
