This book was released on 2014-07-17 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PHREEQC version 3 is a computer program written in the C and C++ programming languages that is designed to perform a wide variety of aqueous geochemical calculations. PHREEQC implements several types of aqueous models: two ion-association aqueous models (the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory model and WATEQ4F), a Pitzer specific-ion-interaction aqueous model, and the SIT (Specific ion Interaction Theory) aqueous model. Using any of these aqueous models, PHREEQC has capabilities for (1) speciation and saturation-index calculations; (2) batch-reaction and one-dimensional (1D) transport calculations with reversible and irreversible reactions, which include aqueous, mineral, gas, solid-solution, surface-complexation, and ion-exchange equilibria, and specified mole transfers of reactants, kinetically controlled reactions, mixing of solutions, and pressure and temperature changes; and (3) inverse modeling, which finds sets of mineral and gas mole transfers that account for differences in composition between waters within specified compositional uncertainty limits.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does game theory tell us about rational behavior? Is there such a thing as rational behavior, and if so, is it of any use to us? In this fascinating book, renowned Hungarian economist Laszlo Mero shows how game theory provides insight into such aspects of human psychology as altruism, competition, and politics, as well as its relevance to disparate fields such as physics and evolutionary biology. This ideal guide shows us how mathematics can illuminate the human condition.

Download or read book Digital Calculations of Engine Cycles written by E. S. Starkman and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital Calculations of Engine Cycles is a collection of seven papers which were presented before technical meetings of the Society of Automotive Engineers during 1962 and 1963. The papers cover the spectrum of the subject of engine cycle events, ranging from an examination of composition and properties of the working fluid to simulation of the pressure-time events in the combustion chamber. The volume has been organized to present the material in a logical sequence. The first two chapters are concerned with the equilibrium states of the working fluid. These include the concentrations of various species of any significance that may appear at equilibrium in the combustion products, as well as the pressures and temperatures to be expected. This is followed by separate chapters on Mollier diagrams of the combustion products and the Otto cycle. The last two chapters focus on the synthesis of the spark ignition engine cycle from basic information on thermodynamics, heat transfer, and combustion. The results of the synthesis of these cycles are then compared to the actual cycle produced by an engine.
Download or read book Celestial Calculations written by J. L. Lawrence and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2019-05-14 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to predict and calculate the positions of stars, planets, the sun, the moon, and satellites using a personal computer and high school mathematics. Our knowledge of the universe is expanding rapidly, as space probes launched decades ago begin to send information back to earth. There has never been a better time to learn about how planets, stars, and satellites move through the heavens. This book is for amateur astronomers who want to move beyond pictures of constellations in star guides and solve the mysteries of a starry night. It is a book for readers who have wondered, for example, where Saturn will appear in the night sky, when the sun will rise and set, or how long the space station will be over their location. In Celestial Calculations, J. L. Lawrence shows readers how to find the answers to these and other astronomy questions with only a personal computer and high school math. Using an easy-to-follow step-by-step approach, Lawrence explains what calculations are required, why they are needed, and how they all fit together. Lawrence begins with basic principles: unit of measure conversions, time conversions, and coordinate systems. He combines these concepts into a computer program that can calculate the location of a star, and uses the same methods for predicting the locations of the sun, moon, and planets. He then shows how to use these methods for locating the many satellites we have sent into orbit. Finally, he describes a variety of resources and tools available to the amateur astronomer, including star charts and astronomical tables. Diagrams illustrate the major concepts, and computer programs that implement the algorithms are included. Photographs of actual celestial objects accompany the text, and interesting astronomical facts are interspersed throughout. Source code (in Python 3, JAVA, and Visual Basic) and executables for all the programs and examples presented in the book are available for download at https://CelestialCalculations.github.io.

Download or read book Numerical Calculations Related to the Rf Properties of the Plasma Sheath written by John Milan Pavkovich and published by . This book was released on 1964 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many considerations of the rf properties of a finite plasma, the plasma is treated as a dielectric and the boundary conditions associated with an ordinary dielectric are applied. Although this approach works well at times, it is by no means a satisfactory approach to understanding the rf properties of the boundary. In this paper, a detailed rf theory of the sheath is presented. The complete collisionless Boltzmann equation is used to derive a linear integral equation for the rf electric field through the sheath. The analysis is one-dimensional. This integral equation is solved numerically for a semi-infinite uniform plasma bounded by a sheath defined by a parabolic dc potential. A Maxwellian distribution of velocities is assumed for all computations. The results show that it is reasonable to assume that the normal component of displacement is continuous but that extra waves are set up near the boundary which decay as one moves into the uniform plasma. These waves are somewhat like the cutoff waves excited in the neighborhood of a waveguide discontinuity and thus give rise to a sheath impedance. A pressure type theory is also presented. This theory is based on moments of the collisionless Boltzmann equation. The results do not agree very well with results of the more exact theory and thus it is concluded that this type of theory is rather unreliable. (Author).
