Cambridge University Press Scaling Selfsimilarity and Intermediate Asymptotics Dimensional Analysis and Intermediate Asymptotics 14 Cambridge Texts in Applied Mathematics Series Number 14
Book SynopsisScaling laws reveal the fundamental property of phenomena, namely self-similarity - repeating in time and/or space - which substantially simplifies the mathematical modelling of the phenomena themselves. 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. Numerous examples from a diverse range of fields, including theoretical biology, fracture mechanics, atmospheric and oceanic phenomena, and flame propagation, are presented for which the ideas of scaling, intermediate asymptotics, self-similarity, and renormalisation were of decisive value in modelling.Trade Review'A splendid and very readable work … Greatly recommended!'

Cambridge University Press Dynamical Systems in Cosmology
Book SynopsisThis is the first book to show how modern dynamical systems theory can help us both in understanding the evolution of cosmological models, and in relating them to real cosmological observations. It will be an invaluable reference for graduate students and researchers in relativity, cosmology and dynamical systems theory.Trade Review'… much more than the usual conference proceedings, it is not just a collection of articles but rather a collectively written monograph … The exceptional character of the book is guaranteed by the fact that its authors combine theoretical dynamical investigations with observational data … It does not often happen that scientific meetings and conferences give such concrete results as those presented in this monograph. I admire the determination and the quality of the editors' and authors' work which results in so valuable a book.' M. Szydlowski, Classical Quantum Gravity'… this book is an excellent and authoritative account of the dynamical evolution of relativistic cosmologies and as such I heartily recommend it to all researchers who wish to delve deeper into the subject.'
