Logic and Information

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Devlin, Keith J., PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, In this provocative and ground-breaking book, Keith Devlin argues that in order to obtain a deeper understanding of the nature of intelligence and knowledge acquisition, we must broaden our concept of logic. Classical logic, beginning with the work of Aristotle, has developed into a powerful and rigorous mathematical theory with many applications in mathematics and computer science, but it has proved woefully inadequate in the search for artificial intelligence. The new kind of logic, also mathematically based, outlined by Professor Devlin is the culmination of collaborative research among some of the world's leading logicians, philosophers, linguists, psychologists, and computer scientists. It introduces the concepts of infon, a quantum of information, and situations, a dynamical generalization of sets, and is capable of handlng the issues involved in human communication, thought, speech, and machine information processing.

Electrical Motor Control Systems

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Patrick, Dale R. / Fardo, Stephen, PUBLISHER: Goodheart-Wilcox Publisher, A systematic overview of electrical motor control for industrial automation is presented in Electrical Motor Control Systems. This comprehensive text presents key concepts to students using a systems or "big picture" approach for effective learning. Throughout the book, real-world applications, procedures, and operations are stressed. A simplified approach to mathematical operations is used with problems solved through the use of basic operations. To reinforce the real-world orientation of the text, a practical laboratory activity is presented at the end of each chapter. More than 100 additional activities are contained in the accompanying Laboratory Manual. Beyond motor control, the text provides coverage of such supporting areas as electrical distribution systems, electronic control, and computer control systems.

Writing Teaching Learning Math

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Meier, John / Rishel, Thomas / Rishel, Thoams, PUBLISHER: Mathematical Association of America (MAA), Meier and Rishel explore the hows and whys of writing in mathematics. How to get started? How to grade assignments? How to introduce good writing into a maths course, and why you should care to do this? And most importantly, why is it so important to get students speaking and writing about mathematics anyway? This book should provide anybody involved in the teaching of mathematics with useful and constructive tools to examine the assignments they are using and the goals they hope to accomplish with them.

The Dynamic Architecture of a Developing Organism: An

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Beloussov, L. V., PUBLISHER: Springer, This book is the first comprehensive attempt to consider the development of organisms as a multi-level feedback-linked self-organizing process. Accordingly, the data related to morphogenetic cell activities and to the development of entire organisms are reconsidered and reformulated in terms of theories of symmetry and self-organization, which is described in non-specialist terms. An important role for biomechanical feedback is emphasized. Two opposing approaches to development are outlined, a genocentric' one and a morphocentric' one, and the possibility of their combination is discussed. Unlike other books recently published in biotheoretical and biomathematical fields, this book is centered around developmental problems. Audience: Students and researchers in biology, biomechanics and mathematical modelling.

Quantum Mechanics of Fundamental Systems: The Quest for

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Henneaux, Marc / Zanelli, Jorge, PUBLISHER: Springer, This is a collection of contributed papers by former collaborators and colleagues of Claudio Bunster (formerly Teitelboim). The topics include General Relativity, Quantum Gravity, String Theory; from historical reviews to current research; from mathematical structures underlying the fundamental interactions, to cosmological scenarios describing the universe at its birth. Each contribution covers a topic in a self-contained manner, including all the references and illustrations to make it easy to read separately. The volume covers a number of important topics in theoretical physics of the last 30 years. Many of the seeds of string theory like supergravity, the AdS/CFT correspondence, p-form fields, electric-magnetic dualities, were discovered first in the context of gravitation by Bunster and his collaborators. This volume is rooted in this tradition and makes it an interesting source for theoretical physicists engaged in current research.

Structural Concrete Structural Concrete: Theory and Design

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hassoun, Nadim M. / Hassoun, M. Nadim, PUBLISHER: Prentice Hall, Revised to adhere to the latest American Concrete Institute (ACI) Code requirements for the design of structural concrete. Presenting the analysis and design of both reinforced and prestressed concrete elements, Structural Concrete is exceptionally logical and easy to read. Accuracy of calculations (Section 1.11) helps readers understand the accuracy of calculations in engineering design. Additional examples elaborate on the behavior of reinforced concrete beams at failure and combine structural analysis with concrete design. Section on Coulomb theory for soil pressure provides an alternative approach to calculate the soil pressure considering the friction of soil on retaining walls. Section on partially prestressed concrete explains the range of partial prestressing between a lower limit of reinforced concrete and an upper limit of full prestressing. In-depth treatment of the ultimate strength concept of reinforced concrete explains the concept of concrete beams behavior up to failure with mathematical analysis of forces developed in concrete and steel. Discusses the design of different types of stairs and the design of curved beams.

Geometric Curve Evolution and Image Processing

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Emmerich, Heike J. / Cao, Frederic / Cao, Frdric, PUBLISHER: Springer, In image processing, "motions by curvature" provide an efficient way to smooth curves representing the boundaries of objects. In such a motion, each point of the curve moves, at any instant, with a normal velocity equal to a function of the curvature at this point. This book is a rigorous and self-contained exposition of the techniques of "motion by curvature." The approach is axiomatic and formulated in terms of geometric invariance with respect to the position of the observer. This is translated into mathematical terms, and the author develops the approach of Olver, Sapiro and Tannenbaum, which classifies all curve evolution equations. He then draws a complete parallel with another axiomatic approach using level-set methods: this leads to generalized curvature motions. Finally, novel, and very accurate, numerical schemes are proposed allowing one to compute the solution of highly degenerate evolution equations in a completely invariant way. The convergence of this scheme is also proved.

Direct Methods in the Theory of Elliptic Equations

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Necas, Jindrich / Tronel, Gerard / Kufner, Alois, PUBLISHER: Springer, Necas's famous book Direct methods in the theory of elliptic equations has become standard reference material on the mathematical theory of linear elliptic equations and systems, and also on the related function spaces framework. It provides a concise and self-contained introduction to the modern theory of partial differential equations, the theory of weak solutions and related topics. It is recommended to scientists working in the field of partial differential equations, postgraduate and graduate students, and applied mathematicians. The first chapter is devoted to directs methods, introduction to the Sobolev spaces, weak solution, Lax-Milgram theorem, Galerkin metods and spectral theory. The second chapter deals with the basic properties of Sobolev spaces (imbeddings, traces, compact imbeddings, fractional spaces).The third chapter contains existence and uniqueness theorems for problems, including the Fredholm alternative and systems of equations with variable coefficients. The next chapter describes regularity properties of weak solutions. Chapter 5 deals with applications of Rellich's inequality and Chapter 6 introduces the Sobolev spaces with weights. Finally the last chapter studies regularity of solutions and their dependence on coefficients and also on irregular domains.
