Download or read book Statistical Mechanics written by Richard E. Wilde and published by Wiley-Interscience. This book was released on 1998 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A valuable learning tool for students and an indispensable resource for professional scientists and engineers Several outstanding features make this book a superior introduction to modern statistical mechanics: It is the only intermediate-level text offering comprehensive coverage of both basic statistical mechanics and modern topics such as molecular dynamic methods, renormalization theory, chaos, polymer chain folding, oscillating chemical reactions, and cellular automata. It is also the only text written at this level to address both equilibrium and nonequilibrium statistical mechanics. Finally, students and professionals alike will appreciate such aids to comprehension as detailed derivations for most equations, more than 100 chapter-end exercises, and 15 computer programs written in FORTRAN that illustrate many of the concepts covered in the text. Statistical Mechanics begins with a refresher course in the essentials of modern statistical mechanics which, on its own, can serve as a handy pocket guide to basic definitions and formulas. Part II is devoted to equilibrium statistical mechanics. Readers will find in-depth coverage of phase transitions, critical phenomena, liquids, molecular dynamics, Monte Carlo techniques, polymers, and more. Part III focuses on nonequilibrium statistical mechanics and progresses in a logical manner from near-equilibrium systems, for which linear responses can be used, to far-from-equilibrium systems requiring nonlinear differential equations.

Download or read book Mechanics of Materials written by Christopher Jenkins and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2005-04-22 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first to bridge the often disparate bodies of knowledge now known as applied mechanics and materials science. Using a very methodological process to introduce mechanics, materials, and design issues in a manner called "total structural design", this book seeks a solution in "total design space" Features include:* A generalized design template for solving structural design problems.* Every chapter first introduces mechanics concepts through deformation, equilibrium, and energy considerations. Then the constitutive nature of the chapter topic is presented, followed by a link between mechanics and materials concepts. Details of analysis and materials selection are subsequently discussed. * A concluding example design problem is provided in most chapters, so that students may get a sense of how mechanics and materials come together in the design of a real structure. * Exercises are provided that are germane to aerospace, civil, and mechanical engineering applications, and include both deterministic and design-type problems.* Accompanying website contains a wealth of information complementary to this text, including a set of virtual labs. Separate site areas are available for the instructor and students. - Combines theories of solid mechanics, materials science and structural design in one coherent text/reference - Covers physical scales from the atomistic to continuum mechanics - Offers a generalized structural design template

Download or read book MATLAB With Applications in Mechanics and Tribology written by Burstein, Leonid and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2021-02-12 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the wide range of programming tools available, the technical analysis and calculations are realized by MATLAB®, which is recognized as a convenient and effective tool for modern science and technology. Thus, mastering its latest versions and practical solutions is increasingly essential for the creation of new products in mechanics, electronics, chemistry, life sciences, and modern industry. Modern mechanical and tribology sciences specialists widely use computers and some special programs, but need a universal tool for solving, simulating, and modeling specific problems from their area. There is plenty of information available on MATLAB® for the general engineer, but there is a gap in the field for research that applies MATLAB® to two wide, interdisciplinary, and topical areas: tribology and mechanics. MATLAB® With Applications in Mechanics and Tribology explores how MATLAB® is used as a tool for subsequent computer solutions, applying it to both traditional and modern problems of mechanics and materials sciences. The problem solving in this book includes calculations of the mechanical parts, machine elements, production process, quality assurance, fluid mechanics parameters, thermodynamic and rheological properties of the materials as well as the state equations, descriptive statistics, and more. This book is ideal for scientists, students and professors of engineering courses, self-instructing readers, programmers, computer scientists, practitioners, and researchers looking for concise and clear information on learning and applying MATLAB® software to mechanics, tribology, and material physics.

This book was released on 2013-01-10 with total page 993 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantum mechanics transcends and supplants classical mechanics at the atomic and subatomic levels. It provides the underlying framework for many subfields of physics, chemistry and materials science, including condensed matter physics, atomic physics, molecular physics, quantum chemistry, particle physics, and nuclear physics. It is the only way we can understand the structure of materials, from the semiconductors in our computers to the metal in our automobiles. It is also the scaffolding supporting much of nanoscience and nanotechnology. The purpose of this book is to present the fundamentals of quantum theory within a modern perspective, with emphasis on applications to nanoscience and nanotechnology, and information-technology. As the frontiers of science have advanced, the sort of curriculum adequate for students in the sciences and engineering twenty years ago is no longer satisfactory today. Hence, the emphasis on new topics that are not included in older reference texts, such as quantum information theory, decoherence and dissipation, and on applications to nanotechnology, including quantum dots, wires and wells. This book provides a novel approach to Quantum Mechanics whilst also giving readers the requisite background and training for the scientists and engineers of the 21st Century who need to come to grips with quantum phenomena The fundamentals of quantum theory are provided within a modern perspective, with emphasis on applications to nanoscience and nanotechnology, and information-technology Older books on quantum mechanics do not contain the amalgam of ideas, concepts and tools necessary to prepare engineers and scientists to deal with the new facets of quantum mechanics and their application to quantum information science and nanotechnology As the frontiers of science have advanced, the sort of curriculum adequate for students in the sciences and engineering twenty years ago is no longer satisfactory today There are many excellent quantum mechanics books available, but none have the emphasis on nanotechnology and quantum information science that this book has
