Thermodynamics and an introduction to Thermostatistics
Herbert B. Callen
It is the only text to cover both thermodynamic and statistical mechanics—allowing students to fully master thermodynamics at the macroscopic level. Presents essential ideas on critical phenomena developed over the last decade in simple, qualitative terms. This new edition maintains the simple structure of the first and puts new emphasis on pedagogical considerations. Thermo statistics is incorporated into the text without eclipsing macroscopic thermodynamics, and is integrated into the conceptual framework of physical theory.
Thermodynamics: Foundations and Applications
Elias P. Gyftopoulos, Gian Paolo Beretta
Designed by two MIT professors, this authoritative text transcends the limitations and ambiguities of traditional treatments to develop a deep understanding of the fundamentals of thermodynamics and its energy-related applications. Basic concepts and applications are discussed in complete detail, with attention to generality, rigorous definitions, and logical consistency. More than 300 solved problems span a wide range of realistic energy systems and processes.
University Physics with Modern Physics with Mastering Physics
Hugh D. Young, Roger A. Freedman
With its time-tested problems, pioneering conceptual and visual pedagogy, and next-generation media package, the Eleventh Edition of Young and Freedman's University Physics is the classic physics book with an eye on the future. Using Young & Freedman's research-based ISEE (Identify, Set up, Execute, Evaluate) problem-solving strategy, readers develop the physical intuition and problem-solving skills required to tackle the book's extensive high-quality problem sets that have been developed and refined over the past five decades. The completely redesigned, pedagogically consistent artwork and diagrams integrate seamlessly with the book to help readers better visualize key concepts.
Vector Calculus
Jerrold E. Marsden, Anthony Tromba
Now in its fifth edition, Vector Calculus helps students gain an intuitive and solid understanding of this important subject. The book’s careful account is a contemporary balance between theory, application, and historical development, providing it’s readers with an insight into how mathematics progresses and is in turn influenced by the natural world.
Vector Calculus
Jerrold E. Marsden, Anthony J. Tromba
This acclaimed course in the calculus of functions of several variables and vector analysis is aimed mainly at second-year undergraduates. Marsden and Tromba provide a concrete, student-oriented text that fosters computational skills and intuitive understanding. The Fourth Edition maintains the balance between theory, applications, optional materials and historical notes present in earlier editions, but has been refined throughout. "This is a superbly produced book, whose clear and orderly presentation and informative diagrams immediately invite closer study ...The best way to evaluate a textbook is to teach from it, and it is clear from the companion study guide by Pao and Soon that it has passed this test." The Mathematical Gazette Supplements: Student Guide/Instructor's Manual
Vector Mechanics for Engineers, Statics and Dynamics
Ferdinand P. Beer, Jr., E. Russell Johnston, Elliot R. Eisenberg, William E. Clausen, George H. Staab, Ferdinand Beer, Elliot Eisenberg, William Clausen, George Staab
For the past forty years Beer and Johnston have been the uncontested leaders in the teaching of undergraduate engineering mechanics. Over the years their textbooks have introduced significant theoretical and pedagogical innovations in statics, dynamics, and mechanics of materials education. At the same time, their careful presentation of content, unmatched levels of accuracy, and attention to detail have made their texts the standard for excellence. The new Seventh Edition of Vector Mechanics for Engineers: Statics and Dynamics continues this tradition. The seventh edition is complemented by a media and supplement package that is targeted to address core course needs for both the student and the instructor.
Vibrações e Ondas
João Paulo Silva
O livro Vibrações e Ondas cobre essencialmente todos os tópicos de um curso introdutório em vibrações e ondas. Os temas são abordados recorrendo, geralmente, a exemplos de mecânica ou de eletromagnetismo, sendo também dados vários exemplos da física subatómica, área de especialidade do autor.
Este livro interessa aos alunos dos cursos de física e engenharia. Frequentemente o estudo de vibrações vem associado a outros temas (termodinâmica, óptica, etc.), e, nestes casos, o presente livro cobrirá o programa de vibrações.
O livro tem um fio condutor que leva o leitor de assuntos básicos como a equação de movimento do oscilador harmónico, até tópicos mais avançados como fenómenos dissipativos e dispersivos ou ondas eletromagnéticas, passando por oscilações amortecidas, oscilações forçadas, ondas estacionárias, propagação de ondas, reflexão e transmissão de ondas entre outros temas. Os diferentes assuntos vão sendo introduzidos de um modo coerente e claro, com vários exemplos e exercícios propostos.
Visual Complex Analysis
Tristan Needham
"... a fascinating and refreshing look at a familiar subject... essential reading for anybody with any interest at all in this absorbing area of mathematics." - Times Higher Education Supplement
Volume 2 Extended, Physics, 4th Edition, Extended Version
David Halliday, Robert Resnick, Kenneth S. Krane
Presents a complete, accurate and rigorous study of physics while bringing it forward into the '90s and beyond. The Fourth Edition of volumes 1 and 2 is concerned with mechanics and E&M/Optics. New features include: expanded coverage of classic physics topics, substantial increases in the number of in-text examples which reinforce text exposition, the latest pedagogical and technical advances in the field, numerical analysis, computer-generated graphics, computer projects and much more.
