Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -This book introduces machine dynamics, an essential competency important for many applications such as designing robots for manufacturing/materials handling or the landing gear of an airplane, analyzing the motion of a piston in an internal combustion engine or a compressor, and designing a Mars Rover. Wherever a machine is used for force or power transmission, or a mechanism creates a desired motion, the methods studied in this book provide the fundamental knowledge needed for optimal design. Specific sections are provided on different types of mechanisms and conditions that should be met for obtaining a desired performance, including kinematic analysis of mechanisms using direct differentiation, relative motion, kinematic coefficients, and instantaneous centers. The Newton-Raphson method for solving complex nonlinear position analysis problems is discussed and the determination of dead and limit positions in mechanisms is presented. The relation between the angular velocity ratio theorem and the fundamental law of gearing is shown to provide a bridge between the concept of instantaneous centers and analyzing gears. Gears and gear trains are covered in detail and calculation of gear ratios in fixed-axis and planetary gear trains using the rolling contact equations is illustrated. Finally, power and force transmission in machines is covered. Static and dynamic cases are analyzed, and the author shows how the static solutions can provide approximations for the dynamic problems where inertia effects are not significant (low inertia and low accelerations). Application of matrix algebra for solving the system of equations of equilibrium (in statics) or equations of motion (in dynamics) is also illustrated. Because of the importance of balancing in any application involving rotating machinery, static and dynamic balancing are analyzed. The book concludes with a brief coverage of three-dimensional dynamics including Euler's equations and gyroscopic effect. Aimed at engineering students interested in machine dynamics across a range of disciplines, the book is also ideal as a reference for practicing engineers with a good understanding of statics, dynamics, and matrix algebra.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 504 pp. Englisch.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Ecology is traditionally presented as a science explaining a highly diverse range of subjects, for example the biogeochemical cycle of oxygen or the structure of species communities. We also tend to incorporate into ecology environmental degradation inflicted by human activities directly or indirectly upon natural systems and the attempts to prevent or mitigate these destructive trends. While fundamental ecology is a broad scientific discipline dealing with ecosystems through a diverse number of approaches, applied ecology is more a philosophy and body of practices with a focus on society and politics. Applied ecology uses concepts used in fundamental ecology. Although the topics of fundamental ecology appear disconnected, it is often felt that they belong to the same field. This book will focus predominately on fundamental ecology. It comprises different sections arranged in a logical and linear architecture for the reader to follow. The chapters, though, are neatly interlinked to create an explanatory system reflecting the systemic nature of ecology.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 464 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Incompleteness is a fascinating phenomenon at the intersection of mathematical foundations, computer science, and epistemology that places a limit on what is provable. However, despite its importance, it is often overlooked in the mathematics curricula because it is difficult to teach. This book aims to help bridge this pedagogical gap by providing a complete and accessible technical exposition of incompleteness for a wide audience. The author accomplishes this by making conceptually difficult proofs more approachable by providing intuitive explanations of the main ideas. Care is taken to emphasize the different layers of the mathematical argument - the layer within and the metalayer about an axiomatic system.Structurally, the book efficiently examines key results and arrives at some of the most interesting concepts as quickly as possible. It begins with Gödel's incompleteness theorems before continuing on to challenging concepts in the arithmetized completeness theorem, the Paris-Harrington theorem, and the independence of the continuum hypothesis. Other topics covered include the Lucas-Penrose arguments, ordinals and cardinals, and axiomatic set theory. Additionally, the author's coverage of forcing is a notable addition to the existing literature.Introduction to Incompleteness will be of interest to researchers, students, and instructors looking for a resource to teach this topic. It may also be suitable for self-study. Knowledge of undergraduate-level theoretical mathematics or computer science is required, as well as a familiarity with abstract proofs. 302 pp. Englisch. …

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -This book is about copies-based nonparametric estimation of the drift function in stochastic differential equations (SDEs) driven by Brownian motion, a jump process, or fractional Brownian motion. While the estimators of the drift function in SDEs are classically computed from one long-time observation of the ergodic stationary solution, here the estimation framework which is part of functional data analysis involves multiple copies of the (non-stationary) solution observed over a short-time interval. Two kinds of nonparametric estimators are investigated for SDE models, first presented in the regression framework: the projection least squares estimator and the Nadaraya-Watson estimator. Adaptive procedures are provided for possible applications in statistical learning. Primarily intended for researchers in statistical inference for stochastic processes who are interested in the copies-based observation scheme, the book will also be useful for graduate and PhD students in probability and statistics, thanks to its multiple reminders of the requisite theory, especially the chapter on nonparametric regression.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 196 pp. Englisch.…
