Music, calm speech, whispering leaves fluttering in a breeze are pleasant and desirable sounds. Noise, howling gales, explosions and screeching traffic are less so. A quantitative understanding of the sources of all such sounds can be obtained by careful analysis of the mechanical equations of motion. This is provided by Acoustics and Aerodynamic Sound, which serves as a short, one semester introduction to acoustics and aerodynamic sound at the advanced undergraduate and graduate level. So...

A mathematical model of a physical system provides the engineer with the insight and intuitive understanding required to make efficient system design changes or other modifications. In this context, a simple formula is often worth a thousand numerical simulations, and connections between different control parameters can be immediately revealed that might otherwise take hours or weeks to deduce from a computational analysis. This book supplies the undergraduate engineer with the basic mathe...

In this book, the ubiquitous symmetric group and its natural action on polynomials are used as a gateway to representation theory.The subject of representation theory is one of the most connected in mathematics, with applications to group theory, geometry, number theory and combinatorics, as well as physics and chemistry. It can however be dauntin...

Psychology and Neuro-Linguistic programming (NLP) are two of the most powerful forces available to mankind. For too long, these disciplines have been kept secret from the masses.
