  • Progress in Low Temperature Physics

    Quantum Turbulence

    by Makoto Tsubota ...
    Series Book 16 - Progress in Low Temperature Physics
    Progress in Low Temperature Physics: Quantum Turbulence presents seven review articles on the recent developments on quantum turbulence. Turbulence has been a great mystery in natural science and technology for more than 500 years since the time of Leonardo da Vinci. Recently turbulence in quantum systems at low temperatures has developed into a new research field. Quantum turbulence is comprised ... Read more

  • Acoustics and Aerodynamic Sound

    by Michael Howe ...
    Music, calm speech, whispering leaves fluttering in a breeze are pleasant and desirable sounds. Noise, howling gales, explosions and screeching traffic are less so. A quantitative understanding of the sources of all such sounds can be obtained by careful analysis of the mechanical equations of motion. This is provided by Acoustics and Aerodynamic Sound, which serves as a short, one semester ... Read more

  • An Introduction to Statistical Mechanics and Thermodynamics

    by Robert H. Swendsen ...
    Series series Oxford Graduate Texts
    This text presents the two complementary aspects of thermal physics as an integrated theory of the properties of matter. Conceptual understanding is promoted by thorough development of basic concepts. In contrast to many texts, statistical mechanics, including discussion of the required probability theory, is presented first. This provides a statistical foundation for the concept of entropy, which ... Read more

  • Thermodynamics of Crystalline States

    by Minoru Fujimoto ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Thermodynamics is a well-established discipline of physics for properties of matter in thermal equilibrium with the surroundings. Applying to crystals, however, the laws encounter undefined properties of crystal lattice, which therefore need to be determined for a clear and well-defined description of crystalline states. Thermodynamics of Crystalline States explores the roles played by order ... Read more

  • Thermodynamics of Crystalline States

    by Minoru Fujimoto ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Originated from studies on steam engines, thermodynamics is formulated traditi- ally for homogeneous materials. Applying to condensed matters however, laws of thermodynamics have to be evaluated with respect to the structural detail. Foll- ing after Kirkwood’s chemical thermodynamics, the author’s attempt is to discuss lattice dynamics in crystalline states in light of the traditional laws. It is ... Read more

  • Irreversibility and Dissipation in Microscopic Systems

    by Édgar Roldán ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    After an insightful introductory part on recent developments in the thermodynamics of small systems, the author presents his contribution to a long-standing problem, namely the connection between irreversibility and dissipation. He develops a method based on recent results on fluctuation theorems that is able to estimate dissipation using only information acquired in a single, sufficiently long, ... Read more

  • Theoretical and Experimental Studies on Non-Fourier Heat Conduction Based on Thermomass Theory

    by Hai-Dong Wang ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book mainly focuses on the theoretical and experimental study of non-Fourier heat conduction behavior. A novel thermomass theory is used as the theoretical basis, which provides a general heat conduction equation for the accurate prediction of non-Fourier heat conduction. In order to prove the validity of this thermomass theory, a large current was used to heat the metallic nanofilm at the ... Read more

  • Shock Wave Compression of Condensed Matter

    A Primer

    by Jerry W Forbes ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book introduces the core concepts of the shock wave physics of condensed matter, taking a continuum mechanics approach to examine liquids and isotropic solids. The text primarily focuses on one-dimensional uniaxial compression in order to show the key features of condensed matter’s response to shock wave loading. The first four chapters are specifically designed to quickly familiarize ... Read more

  • Ergodic Optimization in the Expanding Case

    Concepts, Tools and Applications

    by Eduardo Garibaldi ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    This book focuses on the interpretation of ergodic optimal problems as questions of variational dynamics, employing a comparable approach to that of the Aubry-Mather theory for Lagrangian systems. Ergodic optimization is primarily concerned with the study of optimizing probability measures. This work presents and discusses the fundamental concepts of the theory, including the use and relevance of ... Read more

  • Experiments and Numerical Simulations of Diluted Spray Turbulent Combustion

    Proceedings of the 1st International Workshop on Turbulent Spray Combustion

    Edited by Bart Merci, Dirk Roekaerts, AMSINI SADIKI ...
    Series series Springer Nature Proceedings excluding Computer Science
    This book reflects the outcome of the 1st International Workshop on Turbulent Spray Combustion held in 2009 in Corsica (France). The focus is on reporting the progress of experimental and numerical techniques in two-phase flows, with emphasis on spray combustion. The motivation for studies in this area is that knowledge of the dominant phenomena and their interactions in such flow systems is ... Read more
