Book Asymptotic Methods in Quantum Mechanics

Download or read book Asymptotic Methods in Quantum Mechanics written by S.H. Patil and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantum mechanics and the Schrodinger equation are the basis for the de scription of the properties of atoms, molecules, and nuclei. The development of reliable, meaningful solutions for the energy eigenfunctions of these many is a formidable problem. The usual approach for obtaining particle systems the eigenfunctions is based on their variational extremum property of the expectation values of the energy. However the complexity of these variational solutions does not allow a transparent, compact description of the physical structure. There are some properties of the wave functions in some specific, spatial domains, which depend on the general structure of the Schrodinger equation and the electromagnetic potential. These properties provide very useful guidelines in developing simple and accurate solutions for the wave functions of these systems, and provide significant insight into their physical structure. This point, though of considerable importance, has not received adequate attention. Here we present a description of the local properties of the wave functions of a collection of particles, in particular the asymptotic properties when one of the particles is far away from the others. The asymptotic behaviour of this wave function depends primarily on the separation energy of the outmost particle. The universal significance of the asymptotic behaviour of the wave functions should be appreciated at both research and pedagogic levels. This is the main aim of our presentation here.

Book Asymptotic methods in mechanics of solids

Download or read book Asymptotic methods in mechanics of solids written by Svetlana M. Bauer and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2015-05-30 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The construction of solutions of singularly perturbed systems of equations and boundary value problems that are characteristic for the mechanics of thin-walled structures are the main focus of the book. The theoretical results are supplemented by the analysis of problems and exercises. Some of the topics are rarely discussed in the textbooks, for example, the Newton polyhedron, which is a generalization of the Newton polygon for equations with two or more parameters. After introducing the important concept of the index of variation for functions special attention is devoted to eigenvalue problems containing a small parameter. The main part of the book deals with methods of asymptotic solutions of linear singularly perturbed boundary and boundary value problems without or with turning points, respectively. As examples, one-dimensional equilibrium, dynamics and stability problems for rigid bodies and solids are presented in detail. Numerous exercises and examples as well as vast references to the relevant Russian literature not well known for an English speaking reader makes this a indispensable textbook on the topic.

Book Applied Asymptotic Methods in Nonlinear Oscillations

Download or read book Applied Asymptotic Methods in Nonlinear Oscillations written by Yuri A. Mitropolsky and published by Springer. This book was released on 1997-07-31 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume addresses the application of asymptotic methods in nonlinear oscillations. Such methods see a large variety of applications in physics, mechanics and engineering. The advantages of using asymptotic methods in solving nonlinear problems are firstly simplicity, especially for computing higher approximations, and secondly their applicability to a large class of quasi-linear systems. In contrast to the existing literature, this book is concerned with the applied aspects of the methods concerned and also contains problems relevant to the everyday practice of engineers, physicists and mathematicians. Usually, dynamics systems are classified and examined by their degrees of freedom. This book is constructed from another point of view based upon the originating mechanism of the oscillations: free oscillation, self-excited oscillation, forced oscillation, and parametrically excited oscillation. The text has been designed to cover material from the elementary to the more advanced, in increasing order of difficulty. It is of considerable interest to both students and researchers in applied mathematics, physical and mechanical sciences, and engineering.

Book Asymptotical Mechanics of Composites

Download or read book Asymptotical Mechanics of Composites written by Igor V. Andrianov and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-09 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book the authors show that it is possible to construct efficient computationally oriented models of multi-parameter complex systems by using asymptotic methods, which can, owing to their simplicity, be directly used for controlling processes arising in connection with composite material systems. The book focuses on this asymptotic-modeling-based approach because it allows us to define the most important out of numerous parameters describing the system, or, in other words, the asymptotic methods allow us to estimate the sensitivity of the system parameters. Further, the book addresses the construction of nonlocal and higher-order homogenized models. Local fields on the micro-level and the influence of so-called non-ideal contact between the matrix and inclusions are modeled and investigated. The book then studies composites with non-regular structure and cluster type composite conductivity, and analyzes edge effects in fiber composite materials. Transition of load from a fiber to a matrix for elastic and viscoelastic composites, various types of fiber composite fractures, and buckling of fibers in fiber-reinforced composites is also investigated. Last but not least, the book includes studies on perforated membranes, plates, and shells, as well as the asymptotic modeling of imperfect nonlinear interfaces.

Book Computation and Asymptotics

Download or read book Computation and Asymptotics written by Rudrapatna V. Ramnath and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-01-11 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the task of computation from the standpoint of asymptotic analysis and multiple scales that may be inherent in the system dynamics being studied. This is in contrast to the usual methods of numerical analysis and computation. The technical literature is replete with numerical methods such as Runge-Kutta approach and its variations, finite element methods, and so on. However, not much attention has been given to asymptotic methods for computation, although such approaches have been widely applied with great success in the analysis of dynamic systems. The presence of different scales in a dynamic phenomenon enable us to make judicious use of them in developing computational approaches which are highly efficient. Many such applications have been developed in such areas as astrodynamics, fluid mechanics and so on. This book presents a novel approach to make use of the different time constants inherent in the system to develop rapid computational methods. First, the fundamental notions of asymptotic analysis are presented with classical examples. Next, the novel systematic and rigorous approaches of system decomposition and reduced order models are presented. Next, the technique of multiple scales is discussed. Finally application to rapid computation of several aerospace systems is discussed, demonstrating the high efficiency of such methods.

Book Matched Asymptotic Expansions

Download or read book Matched Asymptotic Expansions written by P.A. Lagerstrom and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Content and Aims of this Book Earlier drafts of the manuscript of this book (James A. Boa was then coau thor) contained discussions of many methods and examples of singular perturba tion problems. The ambitious plans of covering a large number of topics were later abandoned in favor of the present goal: a thorough discussion of selected ideas and techniques used in the method of matched asymptotic expansions. Thus many problems and methods are not covered here: the method of av eraging and the related method of multiple scales are mentioned mainly to give reasons why they are not discussed further. Examples which required too sophis ticated and involved calculations, or advanced knowledge of a special field, are not treated; for instance, to the author's regret some very interesting applications to fluid mechanics had to be omitted for this reason. Artificial mathematical examples introduced to show some exotic or unexpected behavior are omitted, except when they are analytically simple and are needed to illustrate mathematical phenomena important for realistic problems. Problems of numerical analysis are not discussed.

Book Advanced Mathematical Methods for Scientists and Engineers I

Download or read book Advanced Mathematical Methods for Scientists and Engineers I written by Carl M. Bender and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 605 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A clear, practical and self-contained presentation of the methods of asymptotics and perturbation theory for obtaining approximate analytical solutions to differential and difference equations. Aimed at teaching the most useful insights in approaching new problems, the text avoids special methods and tricks that only work for particular problems. Intended for graduates and advanced undergraduates, it assumes only a limited familiarity with differential equations and complex variables. The presentation begins with a review of differential and difference equations, then develops local asymptotic methods for such equations, and explains perturbation and summation theory before concluding with an exposition of global asymptotic methods. Emphasizing applications, the discussion stresses care rather than rigor and relies on many well-chosen examples to teach readers how an applied mathematician tackles problems. There are 190 computer-generated plots and tables comparing approximate and exact solutions, over 600 problems of varying levels of difficulty, and an appendix summarizing the properties of special functions.
