Cambridge University Press A Students Guide to Fourier Transforms With Applications in Physics and Engineering Students Guides
Book SynopsisFourier transform theory is of central importance in a vast range of applications in physical science, engineering and applied mathematics. Providing a concise introduction to the theory and practice of Fourier transforms, this book is invaluable to students of physics, electrical and electronic engineering, and computer science. After a brief description of the basic ideas and theorems, the power of the technique is illustrated through applications in optics, spectroscopy, electronics and telecommunications. The rarely discussed but important field of multi-dimensional Fourier theory is covered, including a description of Computer Axial Tomography (CAT scanning). The book concludes by discussing digital methods, with particular attention to the Fast Fourier Transform and its implementation. This new edition has been revised to include new and interesting material, such as convolution with a sinusoid, coherence, the Michelson stellar interferometer and the van CittertâZernike theorem, Trade ReviewFrom previous editions: 'It is the wide range of topics that makes this book so appealing … I highly recommend this book for the advanced student … Even the expert who wants a deeper appreciation of the Fourier transform will find the book useful.'

Cambridge University Press Aperiodic Order
Book SynopsisThis first volume in a series provides a graduate-level introduction to the many facets of aperiodic order. Special attention is given to methods from algebra, discrete geometry and harmonic analysis, while the main focus is on topics motivated by physics and crystallography. Numerous illustrations and examples are included.Trade Review'Mathematicians add hypotheses to theorems either to bar known monsters or provisionally to enable proof, pending better ideas that lead to more general results … Monsters no more, aperiodic filings have joined mainstream mathematics, and undergraduates drawn here by beautiful graphics will find themselves initiated into algebraic number theory, Lie theory, ergodic theory, dynamical systems, finite-state automata, Fourier analysis, and more.' D. V. Feldman, University of New Hampshire'Aperiodic Order is a comprehensive introduction to this relatively new and multidisciplinary field. Sparked by Dan Shechtman's discovery of quasicrystals in 1982, which earned him the 2011 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, the field incorporates crystallography, discrete geometry, dynamical systems, harmonic analysis, mathematical diffraction theory, and more. Because the field spans such disparate fields, advances by one group often go unnoticed by the other. An important goal of this book is to remedy this by unifying and contextualizing results and providing a common language for researchers. … Readers who want to follow up on any details can certainly find a reference in the nearly 30 pages of bibliographic entries. Full of examples, construction techniques, and an array of analytic tools, this book is an outstanding resource for those hoping to enter the field, yet also contains plenty of useful information for seasoned experts.'

Cambridge University Press Numerical and Statistical Methods for Bioengineering
Book SynopsisThe first MATLAB-based numerical methods textbook specifically for bioengineers, including topics on hypothesis testing, plus numerous examples drawn exclusively from biomedical engineering applications. This is an ideal core text for one-semester undergraduate courses, and is also a valuable reference for anyone interested in the quantitative aspects of biology research.Trade Review'I think this book is a winner … [it] is really easy to read and places frameworks for numerical analysis into realistic bioengineering concepts that students will find familiar and relevant. This is most evident in the excellent boxed examples, but also in many of the homework problems. I also really liked the 'key points to consider' at the end of the chapters - these are useful reminders for the students. Finally, the book presents bioinformatics in a manageable fashion that should help demystify this subject for interested students.' K. Jane Grande-Allen, Rice UniversityTable of Contents1.

Cambridge University Press Linear Algebra
Book SynopsisLinear Algebra offers a unified treatment of both matrix-oriented and theoretical approaches to the course, which will be useful for classes with a mix of mathematics, physics, engineering, and computer science students. Major topics include singular value decomposition, the spectral theorem, linear systems of equations, vector spaces, linear maps, matrices, eigenvalues and eigenvectors, linear independence, bases, coordinates, dimension, matrix factorizations, inner products, norms, and determinants.Trade Review'This is a book for anyone who wants to really understand linear algebra. Instead of mere cookbook recipes or dry proofs, it provides explanations, examples, pictures - and, yes, algorithms and proofs too, but only after the reader is able to understand them. And while it is aimed at beginners, even experts will have something to learn from this book.' John Baez, University of California, Riverside'This is an exciting and entertaining book. It keeps an informal tone, but without sacrificing accuracy or clarity. It takes care to address common difficulties (and the classroom testing shows), but without talking down to the reader. It uses the modern understanding of how to do linear algebra right, but remains accessible to first-time readers.' Tom Leinster, University of Edinburgh'Linear algebra is one of the most important topics in mathematics, as linearity is exploited throughout applied mathematics and engineering. Therefore, the tools from linear algebra are used in many fields. However, they are often not presented that way, which is a missed opportunity. The authors have written a linear algebra book that is useful for students from many fields (including mathematics). A great feature of this book is that it presents a formal linear algebra course that clearly makes (coordinate) matrices and vectors the fundamental tools for problem solving and computations.' Eric de Sturler, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University'It is a book well worth considering both for learning and teaching this important area of mathematics.' John Baylis, The Mathematical GazetteTable of Contents1. Linear systems and vector spaces; 2. Linear maps and matrices; 3. Linear independence, bases, and coordinates; 4. Inner products; 5. Singular value decomposition and the spectral theorem; 6. Determinants.

John Wiley & Sons Inc Student Solutions Manual to accompany Technical
Book SynopsisThis textbook has been in constant use since 1980, and this edition represents the first major revision of this text since the second edition. It was time to select, make hard choices of material, polish, refine, and fill in where needed. Much has been rewritten to be even cleaner and clearer, new features have been introduced, and some peripheral topics have been removed. The authors continue to provide real-world, technical applications that promote intuitivereader learning. Numerous fully worked examples and boxed and numbered formulas give students the essential practice they need to learn mathematics. Computer projects are given when appropriate, including BASIC, spreadsheets, computer algebra systems, and computer-assisted drafting. The graphing calculator has been fully integrated and calculator screens are given to introduce computations. Everything the technical student may need is included, with the emphasis always on clarity and practical applications.

ISTE Ltd and John Wiley & Sons Inc Formal Methods Applied to Industrial Complex
Book SynopsisA presentation of real examples of industrial uses for formal methods such as SCADE, the B-Method, ControlBuild, Matelo, etc. in various fields, such as railways, aeronautics, and the automotive industry, the purpose of this book is to present a summary of experience on the use of these “formal methods” (such as proof and model-checking) in industrial examples of complex systems. It is based on the experience of people who are currently involved in the creation and evaluation of safety critical system software. The involvement of people from within the industry allows us to avoid the usual problems of confidentiality which could arise and thus enables us to supply new useful information (photos, architecture plans, real examples, etc.).Table of ContentsINTRODUCTION xiii CHAPTER 1.
