Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Over two hundred novel and innovative computer algebra worksheets or 'recipes' will enable readers in engineering, physics, and mathematics to easily and rapidly solve and explore most problems they encounter in their mathematical physics studies. While the aim of this text is to illustrate applications, a brief synopsis of the fundamentals for each topic is presented, the topics being organized to correlate with those found in traditional mathematical physics texts. The recipes are presented in the form of stories and anecdotes, a pedagogical approach that makes a mathematically challenging subject easier and more fun to learn.This is a self-contained and standalone text using MAPLE that may be used in the classroom, for self-study, as a reference, or as a text for an online course.Springer Basel AG in Springer Science + Business Media, Heidelberger Platz 3, 14197 Berlin 412 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This monograph presents our recent results on the proportional-integr- derivative (PID) controller and its design, analysis, and synthesis. The fo cus is on linear time-invariant plants that may contain a time delay in the feedback loop. This setting captures many real-world practical and in dustrial situations. The results given here include and complement those published in Structure and Synthesis of PID Controllers by Datta, Ho, and Bhattacharyya [10]. In [10] we mainly dealt with the delay-free case. The main contribution described here is the efficient computation of the entire set of PID controllers achieving stability and various performance specifications. The performance specifications that can be handled within our machinery are classical ones such as gain and phase margin as well as modern ones such as Hoo norms of closed-loop transfer functions. Finding the entire set is the key enabling step to realistic design with several design criteria. The computation is efficient because it reduces most often to lin ear programming with a sweeping parameter, which is typically the propor tional gain. This is achieved by developing some preliminary results on root counting, which generalize the classical Hermite-Biehler Theorem, and also by exploiting some fundamental results of Pontryagin on quasi-polynomials to extract useful information for controller synthesis. The efficiency is im portant for developing software design packages, which we are sure will be forthcoming in the near future, as well as the development of further capabilities such as adaptive PID design and online implementation.Springer Basel AG in Springer Science + Business Media, Heidelberger Platz 3, 14197 Berlin 348 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The theory of Frobenius splittings has made a significant impact in the study of the geometry of flag varieties and representation theory. This book systematically develops the theory and covers all its major developments. It's concise, efficient exposition unfolds from basic introductory material on Frobenius splittings-definitions, properties and examples-to cutting edge research, making it an excellent resource for mathematicians and graduate students in algebraic geometry and representation theory of algebraic groups.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Developed in this book are several deep connections between time-frequency (Fourier/Gabor) analysis and time-scale (wavelet) analysis, emphasizing the powerful adaptive methods that emerge when separate techniques from each area are properly assembled in a larger context. While researchers at the forefront of developments in time-frequency and time-scale analysis are well aware of the benefits of such a unified approach, there remains a knowledge gap in the larger community of practitioners about the precise strengths and limitations of Fourier/Gabor analysis versus wavelets. This book fills that gap by presenting the interface of time-frequency and time-scale methods as a rich area of work.
