Download or read book The Alphabet and the Brain written by Derrick de Kerckhove and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a consequence of the suggestion that a major key to ward understanding cognition in any advanced culture is to be found in the relationships between processing orthographies, lan guage, and thought. In this book, the contributors attempt to take only the first step, namely to ascertain that there are reliable con stancies among the interactions between a given type of writing and specific brain processes. And, among the possible brain processes that could be investigated, only one apparently simple issue is being explored: namely, whether the lateralization of reading and writing to the right in fully phonemic alphabets is the result of formalized but essentially random occurrences, or whether some physiological determinants are at play. The original project was much more complicated. It began with Derrick de Kerckhove's attempt to establish a connection between the rise of the alphabetic culture in Athens and the development of a theatrical tradition in that city from around the end of the 6th century B. c. to the Roman conquest. The underlying assumption, first proposed in a conversation with Marshall McLuhan, was that the Greek alphabet was responsible for a fundamental change in the psychology of the Athenians and that the creation of the great tragedies of Greek theatre was a kind of cultural response to a con dition of deep psychological crisis.

Download or read book Mathematical Modeling I written by Troy L. Story and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2010-06 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mathematical Modeling I: kinetics, thermodynamics and statistical mechanics (MMI) features traditional topics in physical chemistry (chemical physics), but is distinguished by problem solving techniques which emphasize the assignment of mathematical models to describe physical phenomena. MMI is a starting point to unify theoretical and empirical perceptions of the following topics: Kinetics, distributions and collisions The first law of thermodynamics The second law of thermodynamics The third law of thermodynamics Statistical mechanics MMI can be used as a text on the above topics in the first semester part of a two-semester undergraduate course in physical chemistry. Since many quantum ideas are introduced in the study of kinetics, distributions, collisions, and statistical mechanics, MMI serves as a logical foundation for the study of quantum mechanics and spectroscopy in the second volume, Mathematical Modeling II: quantum mechanics and spectroscopy (to appear in the fall of 2010)."

At the end of each chapter, numerous short answer questions, multiple choice questions and solved problems are included to brush up the chapter fast, quickly and effectively especially before exams. NEW TO THIS EDITION • Several new Short Questions and Solved Problems are added. • Some of the chapters are redesigned to make it more comprehensive and informative. • New topics have been added in Chapters 1, 3, 4, 9, 11, 17, 18 and 19. • A new appendix on Lorentz Force Equation is also included.
Download or read book Diverse Quantization Phenomena in Layered Materials written by Chiun-Yan Lin and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-12-06 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph offers a comprehensive overview of diverse quantization phenomena in layered materials, covering current mainstream experimental and theoretical research studies, and presenting essential properties of layered materials along with a wealth of figures. This book illustrates commonly used synthesis methods of these 2D materials and compares the calculated results and experimental measurements, including novel features not yet reported. The book also discusses experimental measurements of magnetic quantization, theoretical modeling for studying systems and covers diversified magneto-electronic properties, magneto-optical selection rules, unusual quantum Hall conductivities, and single- and many-particle magneto-Coulomb excitations. Rich and unique behaviors are clearly revealed in few-layer graphene systems with distinct stacking configuration, stacking-modulated structures, silicon-doped lattices, bilayer silicene/germanene systems with the bottom-top and bottom-bottom buckling structures, monolayer and bilayer phosphorene systems, and quantum topological insulators. The generalized tight-binding model, the static and dynamic Kubo formulas, and the random-phase approximation are developed/modified to thoroughly explore the fundamental properties and propose the concise physical pictures. Different high-resolution experimental measurements are discussed in detail, and they are consistent with the theoretical predictions. Aimed at readers working in materials science, physics, and engineering this book should be useful for potential applications in energy storage, electronic devices, and optoelectronic devices.

Download or read book Advances in Applied and Computational Topology written by American Mathematical Society. Short Course on Computational Topology and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2012-07-05 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the shape of data? How do we describe flows? Can we count by integrating? How do we plan with uncertainty? What is the most compact representation? These questions, while unrelated, become similar when recast into a computational setting. Our input is a set of finite, discrete, noisy samples that describes an abstract space. Our goal is to compute qualitative features of the unknown space. It turns out that topology is sufficiently tolerant to provide us with robust tools. This volume is based on lectures delivered at the 2011 AMS Short Course on Computational Topology, held January 4-5, 2011 in New Orleans, Louisiana. The aim of the volume is to provide a broad introduction to recent techniques from applied and computational topology. Afra Zomorodian focuses on topological data analysis via efficient construction of combinatorial structures and recent theories of persistence. Marian Mrozek analyzes asymptotic behavior of dynamical systems via efficient computation of cubical homology. Justin Curry, Robert Ghrist, and Michael Robinson present Euler Calculus, an integral calculus based on the Euler characteristic, and apply it to sensor and network data aggregation. Michael Erdmann explores the relationship of topology, planning, and probability with the strategy complex. Jeff Erickson surveys algorithms and hardness results for topological optimization problems.
