Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

This book begins from a non-traditional exposition of dimensional analysis, physical similarity theory and general theory of scaling phenomena, using classical examples to demonstrate that the onset of scaling is not until the influence of initial and/or boundary conditions has disappeared but when the system is still far from equilibrium.
