Download or read book Ellipsoidal Harmonics written by George Dassios and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-07-12 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sphere is what might be called a perfect shape. Unfortunately nature is imperfect and many bodies are better represented by an ellipsoid. The theory of ellipsoidal harmonics, originated in the nineteenth century, could only be seriously applied with the kind of computational power available in recent years. This, therefore, is the first book devoted to ellipsoidal harmonics. Topics are drawn from geometry, physics, biosciences and inverse problems. It contains classical results as well as new material, including ellipsoidal bi-harmonic functions, the theory of images in ellipsoidal geometry and vector surface ellipsoidal harmonics, which exhibit an interesting analytical structure. Extended appendices provide everything one needs to solve formally boundary value problems. End-of-chapter problems complement the theory and test the reader's understanding. The book serves as a comprehensive reference for applied mathematicians, physicists, engineers and for anyone who needs to know the current state of the art in this fascinating subject.

This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1893, Byerly's classic treatise on Fourier's series and spherical, cylindrical, and ellipsoidal harmonics has been used in classrooms for well over a century. This practical exposition acts as a primer for fields such as wave mechanics, advanced engineering, and mathematical physics. Topics covered include: . development in trigonometric series . convergence on Fourier's series . solution of problems in physics by the aid of Fourier's integrals and Fourier's series . zonal harmonics . spherical harmonics . cylindrical harmonics (Bessel's functions) . and more. Containing 190 exercises and a helpful appendix, this reissue of Fourier's Series will be welcomed by students of higher mathematics everywhere. American mathematician WILLIAM ELWOOD BYERLY (1849-1935) also wrote Elements of Differential Calculus (1879) and Elements of Integral Calculus (1881).

Download or read book The Ultimate Image Singularities for External Spheroidal and Ellipsoidal Harmonics written by Touvia Miloh and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The image system of singularities of an arbitrary exterior potential field within a tri-axial ellipsoid is derived. It is found that the image system consists of a source and doublet distribution over the fundamental ellipsoid. The present contribution is a generalization of previous theories on the image system of an exterior potential field within a sphere and spheroid. A proof of Havelock's spheroid theorem which apparently is not available in the literature is also given. The knowledge of the image system is required, for example, when hydrodynamical forces and moments acting on an ellipsoid immersed in a potential flow are computed by the Lagally theorem. The two examples given consider the image system of singularities of an ellipsoid in a uniform translatory motion and in pure rotation. (Author).
Download or read book Handbook of Geomathematics written by Willi Freeden and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-08-13 with total page 1371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last three decades geosciences and geo-engineering were influenced by two essential scenarios: First, the technological progress has changed completely the observational and measurement techniques. Modern high speed computers and satellite based techniques are entering more and more all geodisciplines. Second, there is a growing public concern about the future of our planet, its climate, its environment, and about an expected shortage of natural resources. Obviously, both aspects, viz. efficient strategies of protection against threats of a changing Earth and the exceptional situation of getting terrestrial, airborne as well as spaceborne data of better and better quality explain the strong need of new mathematical structures, tools, and methods. Mathematics concerned with geoscientific problems, i.e., Geomathematics, is becoming increasingly important. The ‘Handbook Geomathematics’ as a central reference work in this area comprises the following scientific fields: (I) observational and measurement key technologies (II) modelling of the system Earth (geosphere, cryosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, biosphere) (III) analytic, algebraic, and operator-theoretic methods (IV) statistical and stochastic methods (V) computational and numerical analysis methods (VI) historical background and future perspectives.
Download or read book A Course of Modern Analysis written by E. T. Whittaker and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-08-26 with total page 722 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This classic work has been a unique resource for thousands of mathematicians, scientists and engineers since its first appearance in 1902. Never out of print, its continuing value lies in its thorough and exhaustive treatment of special functions of mathematical physics and the analysis of differential equations from which they emerge. The book also is of historical value as it was the first book in English to introduce the then modern methods of complex analysis. This fifth edition preserves the style and content of the original, but it has been supplemented with more recent results and references where appropriate. All the formulas have been checked and many corrections made. A complete bibliographical search has been conducted to present the references in modern form for ease of use. A new foreword by Professor S.J. Patterson sketches the circumstances of the book's genesis and explains the reasons for its longevity. A welcome addition to any mathematician's bookshelf, this will allow a whole new generation to experience the beauty contained in this text.

Download or read book Physical Geodesy written by Bernhard Hofmann-Wellenhof and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-10-10 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Physical Geodesy", published in 1967, has for many years been considered as the standard introduction to its field. The enormous progress since then has required a complete reworking. While basic material has been retained other parts are completely updated. However, there is a seamless welding of new ideas and methods (GPS, satellites, collocation). Highlights include: emphasis on global integration of geometry and gravity, a simplified approach to Molodensky's theory without integral equations, and a general combination of all geodetic data by least-squares collocation. In the second edition minor mistakes have been corrected.
