Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Today, air-to-surface vessel (ASV) radars, or more generally maritime surveillance radars, are installed on maritime reconnaissance aircraft for long-range detection, tracking and classification of surface ships (ASuW-anti-surface warfare) and for hunting submarines (ASW-anti-submarine warfare). Such radars were first developed in the UK during WWII as part of the response to the threat to shipping from German U-Boats. This book describes the ASV radars developed in the UK after WWII (1946-2000) and used by the RAF for long-range maritime surveillance.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Electromechanical Machinery Theory and Performance presents a detailed explanation of electromagnetic machines, giving specific focus on transformers and AC rotating machines that can be used in the preservation and transference of energy and power. This book is developed for students at both graduate and undergraduate level, and can be used by practicing engineers as well. The book explores different machines, transformers and converters that have become an essential part in the efficient use of both energy and power. It includes examples and numerical exercises that will enable students and engineers to efficiently practice and use certain calculations. Aimed as a one-semester course, this book gives a detailed analysis of modern machines and their application.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Electric glow discharges (glows) can be found almost everywhere, from atmospheric electricity to modern plasma technologies, and have long been the object of research. Most books on this subject mainly describe the fundamental foundations on the basis of a fluid (hydrodynamic) approximation. In that approach the electron distribution function (EDF) depends on the local plasma parameters at a given point of space in a given time. However, under conditions of a gas-discharge plasma the EDF is usually strongly non-equilibrium and the fluid approximation cannot describe some important phenomena and processes. The appropriate approach for describing such highly non-equilibrium systems and phenomena is physical kinetics. Work in this area has progressed rapidly and a consistent kinetic description of the simplest glow discharges has become possible. This book provides simple illustrations of the basic physical mechanisms and principles that determine the properties of these categories of discharges so the reader can successfully participate in scientific and technical progress.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - In the field of particle and astrophysics one of the major unresolved problems is to understand the nature and properties of dark matter, which constitutes almost 80% of the matter content of the universe. This book gives a pedagogical introduction to the field of dark matter in general, and in particular to the model building perspective. Starting from the evidence and need for dark matter, it goes into the deeper understanding of how to accommodate a dark matter candidate in a particle physics model. This book focuses on teaching the basic tools for model building of dark matter, starting from the easiest and gradually progressing to the most difficult. Although there are plenty of dark matter models available, this book concentrates on the important ones. It aims to motivate the reader to propose a new dark matter model complying with all observational constraints.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - This book presents simple interdisciplinary stochastic models meant as a gentle introduction to the field of non-equilibrium statistical physics. It focuses on the analysis of two-state models with cooperative effects, which are versatile enough to be applied to many physical and social systems. The book also explores a variety of mathematical techniques to solve the master equations that govern these models: matrix theory, empty-interval methods, mean field theory, a quantum approach and mapping onto classical Ising models. The models discussed are at the confluence of nanophysics, biology, mathematics and the social sciences, and they provide a pedagogical path toward understanding the complex dynamics of particle self-assembly with the tools of statistical physics.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - In any linear system the input and the output are connected by means of a linear operator. When the input can be notionally represented by a function that is null valued everywhere except at a specific location in spacetime, the corresponding output is an entity called the Green function in field theories. Dyadic Green functions are commonplace in electromagnetics, because both the input and the output are vector functions of space and time. Numerous research papers have been written on dyadic Green functions when both the input and the output are time harmonic and a linear homogeneous medium occupies all space. This book provides a self-contained survey of the state-of-the-art knowledge of infinite-space dyadic Green functions.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - This book concentrates upon the study of mathematical models of nonlinear solitary waves known as solitons. As the name indicates, a soliton is a localized wave that travels without changing its shape, such as an ocean wave. An important feature of solitons is that they keep their shapes after collisions with other solitons. Interesting to anybody who wants to unearth the real sense and nature of solitary waves, and the relevant mathematical tools to use for effective investigation and analysis of these phenomena, the text focuses on numerical analysis of solitons. The integrability and multidimensionality of solitons is inextricably bound up with the approach of investigation and, as the more physical systems are not fully integrable, even in one dimension, numerical analysis is the main tool to investigate and understand the pertinent physical mechanisms.…
