  • Pwa90: A Lifetime Of Emergence

    by Piers Coleman, Premi Chandra, Gabi Kotliar, Clare Yu, Daniel L Stein, Phuan Ong ...
    In a remarkable career spanning more than six decades, Philip W Anderson has made many fundamental contributions to physics. As codified in his oft-quoted phrase 'More is Different', Anderson has been the most forceful and persuasive proponent of the radical, but now ubiquitous, viewpoint of emergent phenomena: truly fundamental concepts that can and do emerge from studies of Nature at each layer ...

  • Book of Extremes

    Why the 21st Century Isn’t Like the 20th Century

    by Ted G. Lewis ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    What makes the 21st century different from the 20th century? This century is the century of extremes -- political, economic, social, and global black-swan events happening with increasing frequency and severity. Book of Extremes is a tour of the current reality as seen through the lens of complexity theory – the only theory capable of explaining why the Arab Spring happened and why it will happen ...

  • Strongly Correlated Systems

    Experimental Techniques

    Edited by Adolfo Avella, Ferdinando Mancini ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The continuous evolution and development of experimental techniques is at the basis of any fundamental achievement in modern physics. Strongly correlated systems (SCS), more than any other, need to be investigated through the greatest variety of experimental techniques in order to unveil and crosscheck the numerous and puzzling anomalous behaviors characterizing them. The study of SCS fostered the ... Read more

  • Chaos Detection and Predictability

    Edited by Charalampos (Haris) Skokos, Georg A. Gottwald, Jacques Laskar ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Distinguishing chaoticity from regularity in deterministic dynamical systems and specifying the subspace of the phase space in which instabilities are expected to occur is of utmost importance in as disparate areas as astronomy, particle physics and climate dynamics.To address these issues there exists a plethora of methods for chaos detection and predictability. The most commonly employed ... Read more

  • Regularity and Complexity in Dynamical Systems

    by Albert C. J. Luo ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    Regularity and Complexity in Dynamical Systems describes periodic and chaotic behaviors in dynamical systems, including continuous, discrete, impulsive, discontinuous, and switching systems. In traditional analysis, the periodic and chaotic behaviors in continuous, nonlinear dynamical systems were extensively discussed even if unsolved. In recent years, there has been an increasing amount of ... Read more

  • Green Tribology

    Biomimetics, Energy Conservation and Sustainability

    Edited by Michael Nosonovsky, Bharat Bhushan ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    Tribology is the study of friction, wear and lubrication. Recently, the concept of “green tribology” as “the science and technology of the tribological aspects of ecological balance and of environmental and biological impacts” was introduced. The field of green tribology includes tribological technology that mimics living nature (biomimetic surfaces) and thus is expected to be environmentally ... Read more
