Wave Propagation

Wave Propagation

James H. Williams Jr.

MIT Press
2019
sidottu
An engineering-oriented introduction to wave propagation by an award-winning MIT professor, with highly accessible expositions and mathematical details-many classical but others not heretofore published.A wave is a traveling disturbance or oscillation-intentional or unintentional-that usually transfers energy without a net displacement of the medium in which the energy travels. Wave propagation is any of the means by which a wave travels. This book offers an engineering-oriented introduction to wave propagation that focuses on wave propagation in one-dimensional models that are anchored by the classical wave equation. The text is written in a style that is highly accessible to undergraduates, featuring extended and repetitive expositions and displaying and explaining mathematical and physical details-many classical but others not heretofore published. The formulations are devised to provide analytical foundations for studying more advanced topics of wave propagation.After a precalculus summary of rudimentary wave propagation and an introduction of the classical wave equation, the book presents solutions for the models of systems that are dimensionally infinite, semi-infinite, and finite. Chapters typically begin with a vignette based on some aspect of wave propagation, drawing on a diverse range of topics. The book provides more than two hundred end-of-chapter problems (supplying answers to most problems requiring a numerical result or brief analytical expression). Appendixes cover equations of motion for strings, rods, and circular shafts; shear beams; and electric transmission lines.

Written in simple, clear language and profusely illustrated, this vintage book contains a wealth of timeless information pertaining to wasps, with chapters on their habits, habitat, enemies, society, species, uses, and much, much more. "Wasps Social and Solitary" is highly recommended for those with an interest in these fascinating insects, and it would make for a worthy addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "Communal Life", "Ammophila and Her Caterpillars", "The Great Golden Digger", "Several Little Wasps", "Crabro", "An Island Settlement", "The Burrowers", "The Wood-Borers", "The Spider-Hunters", "The Enemies of the Grasshopper", "Workers in Clay", etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with an introduction by John Burroughs and illustrations by James H. Emerton.

I Will Love You, Forever! --The Quantum Mechanics of Love

I Will Love You, Forever! --The Quantum Mechanics of Love

James H. Williams

Composites Mechanics
2009
nidottu
In this memoir for the ages, the internationally renowned MIT professor James H. Williams, Jr. poses the breathtaking question "What happens to the love between two people when they die?" To answer his question, he explores four very different loving relationships with four very different females and plumbs the depths of modern cosmology and physics. Via lovions --quantum packets of love-- Professor Williams concludes that mutually intense love can indeed be eternal. Advance Praise (Short Version) "...a beautifully written memoir..." "...powerful and creative..." "...A brilliantly thought-provoking masterwork." Advance Praise (Extended Version) "When so much writing about love is cheap or superficial, it is a great and overdue pleasure to have this book by James H. Williams, Jr. Though his book is startling and exciting in its implications and clearly written from the heart, Professor Williams has also trained his powerful intellect and impressive scientific training on the vexed issue of love's essence and its sources to argue plausibly --and scientifically -- that love is eternal. I have never read a book like this before. It is truly one-of-a-kind, but the magic of the book is to leave you feeling more powerfully bound to those you love. If you have ever loved anyone deeply, you will not forget this book. A brilliantly thought-provoking masterwork." -- Andrew Szanton, coauthor of Have No Fear, the acclaimed memoir of civil rights leader Charles Evers "This is a beautifully written memoir by an esteemed engineering professor at MIT that offers a fascinating, plausible and accessible scientific explanation of a subject that for thousands of years has been deemed the province not of science but of the arts --love. To do so, he examines the rich relationships he shares with four women and then uses his unique perspective and impressive education to bridge the gap between philosophy and science. In doing so, he suggests a surprising explanation for some of the greatest mysteries of the universe and answers one of the most perplexing questions of all: What is love?" -- Mitchell Zuckoff, Professor of Journalism, Boston University, and author of Ponzi's Scheme (and the forthcoming Robert Altman: An Oral Biography) "This book is powerful and creative, exploring aspects of the human condition that require courage and sensitivity rolled into one. Professor Williams's vast and eclectic talents make such an exploration possible for readers whose minds will be stretched. Intrafamilial love is complicated and complex, yet Professor Williams has taken our understanding to a new plateau. D. H. Lawrence dealt with similar themes in his Sons and Lovers, but not as adeptly or artfully in my estimation." -- Kenneth R. Manning, Thomas Meloy Professor of Rhetoric and the History of Science, MIT, and author of Black Apollo of Science: the Life of Ernest Everett Just

You Matter. You Make a Difference.You are Invited to Answer The Call.Faced with the devastation of racism that is still alive and well in this day and age, and the infected scab that was ripped off of unhealed racial wounds with the election of our nation's first black president, our community is desperately calling out for help. This book, "The C.A.L.L.: Inspiring Stories For Young Men About Character, Accountability, Love, And Leadership," issues a clarion call to our young black men to stand up, step up and recognize their inherent greatness. Dr. Towanna Burrous Freeman, the mother of a young son, was harshly jolted by the tragic death of Trayvon Martin in Florida. She felt compelled to address the unique challenges facing young black men. To inspire hope and send forth a message of encouragement and affirmation, she issued a call-to-action to her network of male mentors, motivational speakers, business professionals, coaches and community leaders to share personal stories capturing the rich tapestry of their life lessons, experiences and wisdom. The stories in "The C.A.L.L." reflect the struggles, challenges, resiliency and triumphs that uniquely make up a part of the black male's journey in this country. This collection of short stories reflect the diverse facets of the life of a black male - rural, suburban and urban; single-parent, two-parent and no-parent households; rich and poor. It contains real life stories of coming into an understanding of identity, integrity, values, manhood, wise decision-making, persistence, reflection, course correction, and learning from consequences. This compelling book is written from the hearts of black men, with the hope that their personal stories will inspire and transform the lives and futures of young black men worldwide.
