Some Problems of Geodynamics (Classic Reprint): Being an Essay to Which the Adams Prize, in the University of Cambridge, Was Adjudged in 1911: Being ... Was Adjudged in 1911 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Inhaltsangabe
Foundations of geodynamics and seismic theory, from the mind of a Cambridge prize‑winner. This book offers a rigorous look at how the earth’s shape, tides, and deep earth waves interact. Rich with mathematical models, it connects boundary conditions, tidal forces, and planetary rotation to real seismic observations.
The work frames complex ideas in a way that blends theory with observable phenomena, guiding readers through how distortional and Rayleigh waves behave in layered earth structures. It draws on spherical harmonics, elasticity, and inertia to explain long‑standing geophysical questions.
- How earth tides and surface forces are modeled, including corrections for spheroidal shape and inertia.
- Different wave classes in the crust and mantle, and how they propagate across layers.
- The role of boundary conditions, harmonic analysis, and potential theory in geodynamics.
- Connections between theory and seismic records, with attention to velocity and dispersion.
Ideal for readers with a strong interest in geophysics, seismology, and applied mathematics, this edition works best for those seeking a deep, theory‑driven understanding of how the planet behaves under dynamic forces.

Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricacies of Earth's physical structure and motion. It explores the distribution of Earth's land and water, as well as the forces that shape its surface. The author's analysis extends to the stresses that exist within the Earth and the extent to which its rotation affects these stresses. The book also examines the phenomenon of Earth tides, analyzing the dynamic interactions between the Earth and celestial bodies like the moon and sun. This book contributes to a deeper understanding of Earth's response to external gravitational influences and their potential implications for its surface and internal structure. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
