The solid state physics could be one of the most daunting topics in physics and engineering , but destined to be encountered. This book presents all of the topics in undergraduate-level solid state physics in a clear fashion, dense with explanatory or just plain entertaining footnotes, which makes it much more appropriate for beginners than the academia standard Kittel’s “Solid State Physics.” This may be the best introductory book for learning solid state physics. It is certainly the most fun to read. In addition, this book delves deep into the topics related to magnetic materials (not trivial topics as people think), which are often discussed in facile manner in Politecnico’s Physics II (Fisica II) courses.

After studying electromagnetism and fluid mechanics, maybe there are some students who possess uncanny inclination to amalgamate those two disciplines. This book might fulfill those students’ insatiable desire to “mix” disciplines and lead them to studying MHD and plasma physics, one of the fields with bright prospect. This book is intended to serve as an introductory text for advanced undergraduates and postgraduate students in physics, applied mathematics and engineering. The material in the text is heavily weighted towards incompressible flows and to terrestrial (as distinct from astrophysical) applications. The final sections of the text also contain an outline of the latest advances in the metallurgical applications of MHD and so are relevant to professional researchers in applied mathematics, engineering and metallurgy.

This is the most up-to-date textbooks for studying electrical machines at an undergraduate level, written by one of the most respected author of this field, Matthew O. Sadiku. This book also provides MATLAB problems, which is essential for any engineering that deals with electricity.

This is an intuitively motivated presentation of many topics in classical mechanics and related areas of control theory and calculus of variations. All topics throughout the book are treated with zero tolerance for unrevealing definitions and for proofs which leave the reader in the dark. Some areas of particular interest are: an extremely short derivation of the ellipticity of planetary orbits; a statement and an explanation of the “tennis racket paradox”; a heuristic explanation (and a rigorous treatment) of the gyroscopic effect; a revealing equivalence between the dynamics of a particle and statics of a spring; a short geometrical explanation of Pontryagin’s Maximum Principle, and more.

As someone who actually read this book, I am greatly indebted to the author Mark Levi, who really helped me build intuitions for rigid body dynamics, something that other mundane mainstream textbooks couldn’t do.

This best-selling classical mechanics (corresponds to courses like “Meccanica Lagrangiana”, “Meccanica Razionale”, “Meccanica Analitica” in Italian university curriculum) text since the first edition released in 1960s, written for the advanced undergraduate one- or two-semester course, provides a complete account of the classical mechanics of particles, systems of particles, and rigid bodies. Vector calculus is used extensively to explore topics. The Lagrangian formulation of mechanics is introduced early to show its powerful problem solving ability. Also it includes some problems that are meant to be solved with softwares like Wolfram Mathematica or MATLAB, which makes this textbook even more appropriate for engineers.

This book offers the reader a comprehensive understanding and the multitude of methods utilized in the research of urban mobilities with cities and ‘the urban’ as its pivotal axis. It covers theories and concepts for scholars and researchers to understand, observe and analyse the world of urban mobilities.

The Handbook of Urban Mobilities facilitates the understanding of urban mobilities within a historic conscience of societal transformation. It explores key concepts and theories within the ‘mobilities turn’ with a particular urban framework, as well as the methods and tools at play when empirical, urban mobilities research is undertaken. This book also explores the urban mobilities practices related to commutes; particular modes of moving; the exploration of everyday life and embodied practices as they manifest themselves within urban mobilities; and the themes of power, conflict, and social exclusion. A discussion of urban planning, public control, and governance is also undertaken in the book, wherein the themes of infrastructures, technologies and design are duly considered.

With chapters written in an accessible style, this handbook carries timely contributions within the contemporary state of the art of urban mobilities research. It will thus be useful for academics and students of graduate programmes and post-graduate studies within disciplines such as urban geography, political science, sociology, anthropology, urban planning, traffic and transportation planning, and architecture and urban design.

A partire da un dettagliato studio empirico sul carsharing di comunità, il volume fornisce una preziosa visione sul carsharing e le soluzioni di comunità per l’accessibilità in ambiente rurale ed esemplifica come il carsharing in particolare, e le mobilità di condivisione in generale, possano contribuire a una transizione socio-ecologica della mobilità.
