Download Description

The globular star clusters of the Milky Way contain hundreds of thousands of stars held together by gravitational interactions, and date from the time when the Milky Way was forming. This text describes the theory astronomers need for studying globular star clusters. The gravitational million-body problem is an idealised model for understanding the dynamics of a cluster with a million stars. After introducing the million-body problem from various view-points, the book systematically develops the tools needed for studying the million-body problems in nature, and introduces the most important theoretical models. Including a comprehensive treatment of few-body interactions, and developing an intuitive but quantitative understanding of the three-body problem, the book introduces numerical methods, relevant software, and current problems. Suitable for graduate students and researchers in astrophysics and astronomy, this text also has important applications in the fields of theoretical physics, computational science and mathematics.

Description:
We studied the effect of gravitational sedimentation on the dispersion of 0.5 and 1@mm-diameter particle boluses within a two-dimensional symmetric six-generation model of the human acinus. Boluses were introduced at the beginning of a 2-s inspiration immediately followed by a 4-s expiration, in normal gravity (1G) and in the absence of gravity (0G). The flow corresponded to a flow rate at the mouth of 500ml/s. In 0G, simulated dispersion (H"s"i"m) was 16ml for both particle sizes. In 1G, H"s"i"m was 71 and 242ml for 0.5 and 1@mm-diameter particles, respectively, showing the effect of gravitational sedimentation. The difference between experimental data (J. Appl. Physiol. 86 (1999) 1402) and simulations was independent of particle size. This suggests that the residual dispersion was independent of the intrinsic properties of the particles and was more likely due to other mechanisms such as ventilation inhomogeneities, cardiogenic oscillations and alveolar wall motion.

Description:
We developed two new three-dimensional models of aerosol transport and deposition representative of two generations in the alveolar zone of the human lung, one with the bifurcation area, and one without. The models were used to simulate particle trajectories of 1-5@mm particles in generations 18-22 of the human lung in different orientations with respect to gravity. Orientation had a significant effect on the overall deposition predicted, which varied by a factor of approximately 3 between the orientations with highest and lowest deposition. Total deposition was a function of orientation and the ratio of terminal settling velocity to mean lumen flow velocity. Predicted deposition was significantly greater in the model without the bifurcation than in the model with the bifurcation. We conclude that modeling the bifurcation is important due to the complex relationship between aerodynamic drag and gravitational sedimentation within the bifurcation zone.

Book Description

Advances in Quantum Chemistry publishes articles and invited reviews by leading international researchers in quantum chemistry. Quantum chemistry deals particularly with the electronic structure of atoms, molecules, and crystalline matter and describes it in terms of electron wave patterns. It uses physical and chemical insight, sophisticated mathematics and high-speed computers to solve the wave equations and achieve its results. Advances highlights these important, interdisciplinary developments.

Book Description

This book gives a clear, practical and self-contained presentation of the methods of asymptotics and perturbation theory and explains how to use these methods to obtain approximate analytical solutions to differential and difference equations. These methods allow one to analyze physics and engineering problems that may not be solvable in closed form and for which brute-force numerical methods may not converge to useful solutions. The objective of this book is to teaching the insights and problem-solving skills that are most useful in solving mathematical problems arising in the course of modern research. Intended for graduate students and advanced undergraduates, the book assumes only a limited familiarity with differential equations and complex variables. The presentation begins with a review of differential and difference equations; develops local asymptotic methods for differential and difference equations; explains perturbation and summation theory; and concludes with a an exposition of global asymptotic methods, including boundary-layer theory, WKB theory, and multiple-scale analysis. Emphasizing applications, the discussion stresses care rather than rigor and relies on many well-chosen examples to teach the reader how an applied mathematician tackles problems. There are 190 computer-generated plots and tables comparing approximate and exact solutions; over 600 problems, of varying levels of difficulty; and an appendix summarizing the properties of special functions.

Customer Reviews:

Deeply insightful and utterly fascinating.......2006-12-20

I had the privilege to explore this guide to the universe of asymptotics under Prof. Bender. I used to think, and still do (about 2 decades on), that this book is like the Rosetta Stone, and enables us to solve anything in applied mathematics.

A must have for anyone looking to understand the incredible universe we find ourselves in!

The Classic Text on Asymptotics.......2005-12-09

I am a mathematics professor, and asymptotic methods is my area of expertise. Bender and Orszag was the standard text on this topic in the early 1980s, and it remains by far the most thorough book on the subject. I had two courses from it in graduate school and have taught from it 3 times now. I have never found a mistake. The book is very well written; its only weakness is that its graphics reflect the technology of the 1970s. Nevertheless, I am teaching from it again next year, because it is in a class by itself.

There is one thing that individual readers and faculty users should be aware of. Some of the exercises, including a few marked as "intermediate," are incredibly difficult. My instructor made the mistake of assigning exercises without working them first. I am careful not to assign any exercises until after I have worked them.

A Classic Resource.......2005-10-07

I'll echo the sentiments of the other reviewers here. I have a well-worn and well-used copy of the first (1978) edition. Believe it or not, I actually had a chance to use these methods as recently as last month (September 2005). I would recommend, though, if you want to get the most out of this book, pick up a symbolic calculation program or calculator capable of doing symbolic math. I use the open-source programs Maxima and Axiom for this, but if you want to actually spend money, Amazon has some calculators that will handle this sort of thing.

Extremely useful.......2003-12-13

Great for anyone taking Partial differential equations, mathematical physics, and the related courses. Carl Bender is a master of the field as well as a great book writer, as well as Orszag. The only complaint is the type setting--a bit too small. But not a big problem

Excellent.......2003-10-19

This is an essential textbook for all applied mathematicians, physicists and research oriented engineers. It is very well written, and explains an enormous lot. It explains it all very well too. I've used chapter 3 and 6 in class, and they were full of insights and information that you cannot find in any other textbook.

From the supplier: Landlords and property managers need to familiarize themselves with bankruptcy law to be able to protect themselves when commercial tenants file for bankruptcy. A knowledge of the Bankruptcy Code will help landlords determine what their options are in such cases and give them greater insight on how to structure lease contracts more effectively. When a commercial tenant files for protection under Chapter 7 or Chapter 11 the landlord needs to carefully consider the legal implications of a tenant's decision to either reject or assume the lease subsequent to a Chapter 7 or Chapter 11 reorganization. Landlords must use the Bankruptcy Code to examine the legal extent to which tenants' security deposits can be used, the applicability of preferential payments, and the use of letters of credit to secure the tenant's guarantee to fulfill all obligations under the lease.
