Book Synopsis Wave Mechanics for Ocean Engineering by : Paolo Boccotti
Download or read book Wave Mechanics for Ocean Engineering written by Paolo Boccotti and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2000-07-28 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a unitary way, this monograph deals with a wide range of subjects related to the mechanics of sea waves. The book highlights recent theoretical results on the dynamics of random wind-generated waves, on long-term wave statistics, and on beach planform evolution. A fresh approach is given to more traditional concepts. For example, new evidence from a recent series of small-scale field experiments is used to introduce some crucial topics like wave forces. Also, the book gives some worked examples for the design of offshore or coastal structures. An exciting subject dealt with in the book is the quasi-deterministic mechanics of three-dimensional wave groups in sea storms, and the loads exerted by these wave groups on offshore structures. The text is intended for researchers and graduate students in ocean engineering, but may also be understood by undergraduates. The more complex concepts are explained with examples or more extensive case studies.
Book Synopsis Multiple Scattering of Waves by Planar Random Distributions of Parallel Cylinders and Bosses (Classic Reprint) by : Vic Twersky
Download or read book Multiple Scattering of Waves by Planar Random Distributions of Parallel Cylinders and Bosses (Classic Reprint) written by Vic Twersky and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-10 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Multiple Scattering of Waves by Planar Random Distributions of Parallel Cylinders and Bosses We derive closed-form representations which are valid at least when the minimum separation of cylinders is large com pared to radius and wavelength; these apparently suffice to take into account the largest effects of multiple scattering. We show that these representations hold either when there is a high degree of order in the distribution of neighbors, or for all distributions near grazing incidence. Other representations are also discussed. The most interesting result we obtain concerns the be havior near grazing incidence. Whereas the single-scattered wave may become infinite as grazing incidence is approached, the multiple scattered wave approaches the negative of the incident wave. Thus the results reduce to those for a dielectric plane near grazing incidence, the incident wave being perfectly reflected with the appropriate sign change.

Book Synopsis Ocean Surface Waves by : Stanislaw R. Massel
Download or read book Ocean Surface Waves written by Stanislaw R. Massel and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1996 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended as a handbook for professionals and researchers in the areas of Physical Oceanography, Ocean and Coastal Engineering and as a text for graduate students in these fields. It presents a comprehensive study on surface ocean waves induced by wind, including basic mathematical principles, physical description of the observed phenomena, practical forecasting techniques of various wave parameters and applications in ocean and coastal engineering, all from the probabilistic and spectral points of view. The book commences with a description of mechanisms of surface wave generation by wind and its modern modeling techniques. The stochastic and probabilistic terminology is introduced and the basic statistical and spectral properties of ocean waves are developed and discussed in detail. The bulk of material deals with the prediction techniques for waves in deep and coastal waters for simple and complex ocean basins and complex bathymetry. The various prediction methods, currently used in oceanography and ocean engineering, are described and the examples of practical calculations illustrate the basic text. An appendix provides a description of the modern methods of wave measurement, including the remote sensing techniques. Also the wave simulation methods and random data analysis techniques are discussed. In the book a lot of discoveries of the Russian and East European scientists, largely unknown in the Western literature due to the language barrier, are referred to.

Book Synopsis Extremes and Related Properties of Random Sequences and Processes by : M. R. Leadbetter
Download or read book Extremes and Related Properties of Random Sequences and Processes written by M. R. Leadbetter and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classical Extreme Value Theory-the asymptotic distributional theory for maxima of independent, identically distributed random variables-may be regarded as roughly half a century old, even though its roots reach further back into mathematical antiquity. During this period of time it has found significant application-exemplified best perhaps by the book Statistics of Extremes by E. J. Gumbel-as well as a rather complete theoretical development. More recently, beginning with the work of G. S. Watson, S. M. Berman, R. M. Loynes, and H. Cramer, there has been a developing interest in the extension of the theory to include, first, dependent sequences and then continuous parameter stationary processes. The early activity proceeded in two directions-the extension of general theory to certain dependent sequences (e.g., Watson and Loynes), and the beginning of a detailed theory for stationary sequences (Berman) and continuous parameter processes (Cramer) in the normal case. In recent years both lines of development have been actively pursued.
Book Synopsis What's the Matter with Waves? by : William Parkinson
Download or read book What's the Matter with Waves? written by William Parkinson and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2018-04-06 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like rocket science or brain surgery, quantum mechanics is pigeonholed as a daunting and inaccessible topic, which is best left to an elite or peculiar few. This classification was not earned without some degree of merit. Depending on perspective; quantum mechanics is a discipline or philosophy, a convention or conundrum, an answer or question. Authors have run the gamut from hand waving to heavy handed in hopes to dispel the common beliefs about quantum mechanics, but perhaps they continue to promulgate the stigma. The focus of this particular effort is to give the reader an introduction, if not at least an appreciation, of the role that linear algebra techniques play in the practical application of quantum mechanical methods. It interlaces aspects of the classical and quantum picture, including a number of both worked and parallel applications. Students with no prior experience in quantum mechanics, motivated graduate students, or researchers in other areas attempting to gain some introduction to quantum theory will find particular interest in this book.

Book Synopsis Waves and Imaging Through Complex Media by : P. Sebbah
Download or read book Waves and Imaging Through Complex Media written by P. Sebbah and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2001-11-30 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent advances in wave propagation in random media are certainly consequences of new approaches to fundamental issues, as well as of a strong interest in potential applications. A collective effort has been made to present in this book the state of the art in fundamental concepts, as well as in biomedical imaging techniques. As an example, the recent introduction of wave chaos, and more specifically random matrix theory - an old tool from nuclear physics - to the study of multiple scattering, has pointed the way to a deeper understanding of wave coherence in complex media. At the same time, efficient new approaches for retrieving information from random media promise to allow wave imaging of small tumors in opaque tissues. Review chapters are written by experts in the field, with the aim of making the book accessible to the widest possible scientific audience: graduate students and research scientists in theoretical and applied physics, optics, acoustics, and biomedical physics.
