Download or read book Body Physics written by Lawrence Davis and published by . This book was released on 201? with total page 590 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Body Physics was designed to meet the objectives of a one-term high school or freshman level course in physical science, typically designed to provide non-science majors and undeclared students with exposure to the most basic principles in physics while fulfilling a science-with-lab core requirement. The content level is aimed at students taking their first college science course, whether or not they are planning to major in science. However, with minor supplementation by other resources, such as OpenStax College Physics, this textbook could easily be used as the primary resource in 200-level introductory courses. Chapters that may be more appropriate for physics courses than for general science courses are noted with an asterisk symbol (*). Of course this textbook could be used to supplement other primary resources in any physics course covering mechanics and thermodynamics"--Textbook Web page.

Download or read book Mitigation Of Hydrodynamic Resistance Methods To Reduce Hydrodynamic Drag written by Marc Perlin and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2014-11-18 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text presents the state of the art in friction drag/resistance reduction technologies for BODIES and crafts operating in liquids at and beneath the free surface. It is useful for professionals with backgrounds in advanced fluid dynamics as well as by academics teaching introductory graduate courses in this area. Active control of resistance will include a discussion of friction reduction, for example through the injection of gas that can form air layers and polymers that initially reside adjacent to the hull, including the use of partial and super cavities. The book discusses passive resistance control achieved through changes in the overall hull shape and appendages, including the application of lifting bodies, bulbous bows, and stern flaps. It also addresses passive reduction of skin friction through the application of hull coatings and other elements of hull husbandry.

Download or read book The Art of Insight in Science and Engineering written by Sanjoy Mahajan and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2014-11-07 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tools to make hard problems easier to solve. In this book, Sanjoy Mahajan shows us that the way to master complexity is through insight rather than precision. Precision can overwhelm us with information, whereas insight connects seemingly disparate pieces of information into a simple picture. Unlike computers, humans depend on insight. Based on the author's fifteen years of teaching at MIT, Cambridge University, and Olin College, The Art of Insight in Science and Engineering shows us how to build insight and find understanding, giving readers tools to help them solve any problem in science and engineering. To master complexity, we can organize it or discard it. The Art of Insight in Science and Engineering first teaches the tools for organizing complexity, then distinguishes the two paths for discarding complexity: with and without loss of information. Questions and problems throughout the text help readers master and apply these groups of tools. Armed with this three-part toolchest, and without complicated mathematics, readers can estimate the flight range of birds and planes and the strength of chemical bonds, understand the physics of pianos and xylophones, and explain why skies are blue and sunsets are red. The Art of Insight in Science and Engineering will appear in print and online under a Creative Commons Noncommercial Share Alike license.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive overview of integrated vehicle systemdynamics exploring the fundamentals and new and emergingdevelopments This book provides a comprehensive coverage of vehicle systemdynamics and control, particularly in the area of integratedvehicle dynamics control. The book consists of two parts, (1)development of individual vehicle system dynamic model and controlmethodology; and (2) development of integrated vehicle dynamicmodel and control methodology. The first part focuses oninvestigating vehicle system dynamics and control according to thethree directions of vehicle motions, including longitudinal,vertical, and lateral. Corresponding individual control systems,e.g. Anti-lock Brake System (ABS), Active Suspension, ElectricPower Steering System (EPS), are introduced and developedrespectively. Particular attention is paid in the second part of the book todevelop integrated vehicle dynamic control system. Integratedvehicle dynamics control system is an advanced system thatcoordinates all the chassis control systems and components toimprove the overall vehicle performance including safety, comfort,and economy. Integrated vehicle dynamics control has been animportant research topic in the area of vehicle dynamics andcontrol over the past two decades. The research topic on integratedvehicle dynamics control is investigated comprehensively andintensively in the book through both theoretical analysis andexperimental study. In this part, two types of controlarchitectures, i.e. centralized and multi-layer, have beendeveloped and compared to demonstrate their advantages anddisadvantages. Integrated vehicle dynamics control is a hot topic inautomotive research; this is one of the few books to address boththeory and practice of integrated systems Comprehensively explores the research area of integratedvehicle dynamics and control through both theoretical analysis andexperimental study Addresses a full range of vehicle system topics including tyredynamics, chassis systems, control architecture, 4 wheel steeringsystem and design of control systems using Linear Matrix Inequality(LMI) Method
