Classical Mechanics with Calculus of Variations and Optimal Control

Titolo: Classical Mechanics with Calculus of Variations and Optimal Control
Autori: Mark Levi
Editore: American Mathematical Soc.
Anno pubbl.: 2014-03-07
ISBN: 9780821891384
Proposto a: BCI

Ref.

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.

Classical Dynamics of Particles and Systems

Proposta del 31 marzo 2023
Titolo: Classical Dynamics of Particles and Systems
Autori: Stephen T. Thornton, Jerry B. Marion
Editore:
Anno pubbl.: 2014
ISBN: 9788131518472
Proposto a: BCI

Ref.

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.

Real Analysis

Titolo: Real Analysis
Autori: Elias M. Stein, Rami Shakarchi
Editore: Princeton University Press
Anno pubbl.: 2009-11-28
ISBN: 9781400835560
Proposto a: BCI

Ref.

I am writing to express my strong interest in the acquisition of “Real Analysis: Measure Theory, Integration, and Hilbert Spaces (Princeton Lectures in Analysis Book 3)” for the library’s collection. As a student pursuing a degree in mechanical engineering, I have found that the study of real analysis is essential and useful to my academic development. This book, written by Elias M. Stein and Rami Shakarchi, is widely recognized as a standard text in the field, and its inclusion in the library’s holdings would be of tremendous benefit to engineering students. Currently, the book is available only in the DISMA library, and is accessible only to faculty members and students majoring in mathematical engineering. As a non-mathematics major, I am unable to access this valuable resource through the DISMA library. By adding the book to the Central Engineering Library’s collection, students from all engineering disciplines will have access to this fundamental text.

I believe that the acquisition of this book would greatly enhance the library’s collection, and help to ensure that engineering students at our university have access to the resources necessary to excel in their studies. The book’s clear and concise presentation of complex mathematical concepts, along with its numerous examples and exercises, make it an ideal text for self-study, as well as for use in coursework.

Thank you for considering my request. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on this matter.

The Routledge Handbook of Applied Epistemology

Titolo: The Routledge Handbook of Applied Epistemology
Autori: David Coady, James Chase
Editore: Routledge
Anno pubbl.: 2018-08-20
ISBN: 9781317393146
Proposto a: BCA, BCI

Ref.

Di interesse per riceche in corso. “The Handbook is divided into six sections: the Internet, Politics, Science, Epistemic Institutions, Individual investigators and Theory and Practice in philosophy. Each of these sections is then separated into chapters. By imposing some form of structure on an unstructured new field, the Handbook is successful in offering an overview. While it does not unify applied epistemology, it does introduce the reader to different types of work done in the field in an orderly manner. This effort of categorisation in itself is a worthy achievement. Indeed, because of its structure, the Handbook constitutes a great starting point for scholars who would wish to get acquainted with the field”, dalla recensione disponibile qui: https://doi.org/10.1111/japp.12409
