This volume contains the important work which the late Professor H. A. Lorentz did to develop Maxwell's theory in the years before his middle age. It begins with the treatise concerning the relation be- tween the propagation of light and the density of...

The last two decades have seen a steady and impressive development, and eventual industrial acceptance, of the high energy-rate manufact- turing techniques based on the utilisation of energy available in an explo- sive charge. Not only has it become...

Cities first came into existence more than five thousand years ago. How to deal with these partly fascinating, partly frightening creatures of mankind, both practically and intellectually, concerns all of us and, in particular, presents areal challenge...

Originally published in 1911, this book contains a collection of many of the scientific papers of the Scottish mathematical physicist Peter Guthrie Tait. The work begins with a brief biography of Tait, and the papers included cover some of Tait's most...

Once upon a time, science was not divided into disciplines as we know it today. There was no distinction between so-called social and natural sciences, not to mention the fragmentation of the latter into physics, chemistry, biology, geology, etc...

This book presents a multidisciplinary collection of original contributions made by the leading scholars and practitioners on researching, building, and maintaining sustainable agricultural systems. Being the first of its kind, the book is divided into...

Synthetic resins have become increasingly important over the years, finding wide application in a variety of fields. Not least have been the tremendous strides made in the use of fibre reinforced resin systems. Although by far the bulk of all fibre...

When the temperature of a gas is not too high and the density of a gas is not too low, the transfer of heat by radiation is usually negligibly small in comparison with that by conduction and convection. However, in the hypersonic flow of space flight,...

Data analysis lies at the heart of every experimental science. Providing a modern introduction to statistics, this book is ideal for undergraduates in physics. It introduces the necessary tools required to analyse data from experiments across a range of...

This research addresses delay effects in nonlinear systems, which are ubiquitous in various fields of physics, chemistry, biology, engineering, and even in social and economic systems. They may arise as a result of processing times or due to the finite...
