Book excerpt: The calculation of traditional fluorine-containing (F2, OF2, N2F4, ClO3F, ClF5, ClF3) and oxygen-containing (OF2, O2, H2O2, N2O4, HNO3, ClO3F) oxidisers of differential fuels has been performed by the different classical semi-empirical quantum-chemical methods (CNDO, CNDO/2, MNDO, AM1, PM3) and ?B-INITIO in the many principal basis-sets optimising the all geometric parameters. It is shown, the high correlative dependencies between the burn parameters of the differential fuels (H2, N2H4, H2N2(CH3)2, CH2, AlH3, B5H9, BeH2) and calculated values of quantum-chemical parameters of the fluorine-containing (oxygencontaining) oxidisers exist in the form of Ip is specific impulse of pressure, P1 is specific traction in atmosphere, Pi is specific traction in vacuum, depending on Qfmin is minimum electronic charge on fluorine atom (Qfmin is the minimum electronic charge on oxygen atom). The authors performed comparative analysis of results of the quantum-chemical semi-empirical and ab-initio calculations for different fuels. The simple interpretation and illustration of the physical nature of these correlative dependencies are offered. The authors established the technique of theoretical estimation of the burn parameters of oxidisers of the differential fuels, that may be used to look for new more efficient non-pollution oxidisers.

This book was released on 2024-07-22 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tackle the most challenging problems in science and engineering with these cutting-edge algorithms Multi-objective optimization problems (MOPs) are those in which more than one objective needs to be optimized simultaneously. As a ubiquitous component of research and engineering projects, these problems are notoriously challenging. In recent years, evolutionary algorithms (EAs) have shown significant promise in their ability to solve MOPs, but challenges remain at the level of large-scale multi-objective optimization problems (LSMOPs), where the number of variables increases and the optimized solution is correspondingly harder to reach. Evolutionary Large-Scale Multi-Objective Optimization and Applications constitutes a systematic overview of EAs and their capacity to tackle LSMOPs. It offers an introduction to both the problem class and the algorithms before delving into some of the cutting-edge algorithms which have been specifically adapted to solving LSMOPs. Deeply engaged with specific applications and alert to the latest developments in the field, it’s a must-read for students and researchers facing these famously complex but crucial optimization problems.

Download or read book Quantum Mechanics written by Walter Greiner and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Quantum Dynamics" is a major survey of quantum theory based on Walter Greiner's long-running and highly successful courses at the University of Frankfurt. The key to understanding in quantum theory is to reinforce lecture attendance and textual study by working through plenty of representative and detailed examples. Firm belief in this principle led Greiner to develop his unique course and to transform it into a remarkable and comprehensive text. The text features a large number of examples and exercises involving many of the most advanced topics in quantum theory. These examples give practical and precise demonstrations of how to use the often subtle mathematics behind quantum theory. The text is divided into five volumes: Quantum Mechanics I - An Introduction, Quantum Mechanics II - Symmetries, Relativistic Quantum Mechanics, Quantum Electrodynamics, Gauge Theory of Weak Interactions. These five volumes take the reader from the fundamental postulates of quantum mechanics up to the latest research in particle physics. Volume 2 presents a particularly appealing and successful theme in advanced quantum mechanics - symmetries. After a brief introduction to symmetries in classical mechanics, the text turns to their relevance in quantum mechanics, the consequences of rotation symmetry and the general theory of Lie groups. The Isospin group, hypercharge, SU (3) and their applications are all dealt with in depth before a chapter on charm and SU (3) leads to the frontiers of research in particle physics. Almost a hundred detailed, worked examples and problems make this a truly unique text on a fascinating side of modern physics.
Download or read book Industrial Organization written by Oz Shy and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1996-01-17 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This upper-level undergraduate text provides an introduction to industrial organization theory along with applications and nontechnical analyses of the legal system and antitrust laws. Using the modern approach but without emphasizing the mathematical generality inherent in many of the arguments, it bridges the gap between existing nontheoretical texts written for undergraduates and highly technical texts written for graduate students. The book can also be used in masters' programs, and advanced graduate students will find it a convenient guide to modern industrial organization.The treatment is rigorous and comprehensive. A wide range of models of all widely used market structures, strategic marketing devices, compatibility and standards, advertising, R&D, as well as more traditional topics are considered in versions much simplified from the originals but that retain the basic intuition. Shy first defines the issues that industrial organization addresses and then develops the tools needed to attack the basic questions. He begins with perfect competition and then considers imperfectly competitive market structures including a wide variety of monopolies, and all forms of quantity and price competitions. The last chapter provides a helpful feature for students by showing how various theories may be related to particular industries but not to others. Topics include: the basics needed to understand modern industrial organization; market structure (monopoly, homogenous products, differentiated products); mergers and entry; research and development; economics of compatibility and standards; advertising; quality and durability; pricing tactics; marketing tactics; management, compensation, and information; price dispersion and search theory; and special industries.
Download or read book The Global Circulation of the Atmosphere written by Tapio Schneider and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite major advances in the observation and numerical simulation of the atmosphere, basic features of the Earth's climate remain poorly understood. Integrating the available data and computational resources to improve our understanding of the global circulation of the atmosphere remains a challenge. Theory must play a critical role in meeting this challenge. This book provides an authoritative summary of the state of the art on this front. Bringing together sixteen of the field's leading experts to address those aspects of the global circulation of the atmosphere most relevant to climate, the book brings the reader up to date on the key frontiers in general circulation theory-including the nonlinear and turbulent global-scale dynamics that determine fundamental aspects of the Earth's climate. While emphasizing theory, as expressed through relatively simple mathematical models, it also draws connections to simulations with comprehensive general circulation models. Topics include the dynamics of storm tracks, interactions between wave dynamics and the hydrological cycle, monsoons, tropical and extratropical dynamics and interactions, and the processes controlling atmospheric humidity. An essential resource for graduate students in atmospheric, ocean, and climate sciences and for researchers seeking an overview of the field, The Global Circulation of the Atmosphere sets the standard for future research in a science that stands at a critical juncture. With a foreword by Edward Lorenz, the book includes chapters by Christopher Bretherton; Kerry Emanuel; Isaac Held; David Neelin; Raymond Pierrehumbert, Hélène Brogniez, and Rémy Roca; Alan Plumb; Walter Robinson; Tapio Schneider; Richard Seager and David Battisti; Adam Sobel; Kyle Swanson; and Pablo Zurita-Gotor and Richard Lindzen.

Download or read book Infectious Disease Modeling written by Xinzhi Liu and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-02-25 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents infectious diseases modeled mathematically, taking seasonality and changes in population behavior into account, using a switched and hybrid systems framework. The scope of coverage includes background on mathematical epidemiology, including classical formulations and results; a motivation for seasonal effects and changes in population behavior, an investigation into term-time forced epidemic models with switching parameters, and a detailed account of several different control strategies. The main goal is to study these models theoretically and to establish conditions under which eradication or persistence of the disease is guaranteed. In doing so, the long-term behavior of the models is determined through mathematical techniques from switched systems theory. Numerical simulations are also given to augment and illustrate the theoretical results and to help study the efficacy of the control schemes.
