When you read this book, it is very likely that the world of Physics is still very calm. Like in the early morning, just when the sun rises. You feel peace and the birds start to wake up and you hear the first sounds breaking the silence of the night. The sounds of joy, the sounds of happiness, the sounds of peace. But it is the morning of the great battle. The battle in physics. Still everybody is asleep. There is no sign of aggression. But soon the armies will rise and the battle will be da...

‘the revealing power of street lighting installations’ vormde in 1938 het antwoord op de vraag van de Britse overheid om een methode voor het ‘meten’ van zichtbaarheid. Het, met behulp van de bevindingen van C. Dunbar en F.C. Smith, door John Maylon Waldram geschreven rapport werd met enthousiasme ontvangen. Maar ondanks verdere ontwikkeling in de zeventiger jaren, heeft de Revealing Power sindsdien de weg naar de dagelijkse ontwerppraktijk helaas nooit gevonden.

In de procestechniek komen veel vakgebieden samen. Een van deze vakgebieden is de meettechniek. Dit zijn de instrumenten die verbonden zijn met het proces om een bepaalde grootheid te meten. In dit boek gaan we in op de grootheden volumestroom en massastroom. Ten eerste omdat deze metingen belangrijk zijn bij de procesvoering. En ten tweede, omdat deze metingen belangrijk zijn bij de custody transfer ofwel de overdracht van een hoeveelheid van verkoper naar koper. Alle natuurkundige grondslag...

Quantum Physics shows us that we create what we observe. Countless experiments confirm that it is our information which manifests reality. Matter and time are created by our observation. This is not only true when we do experiments in laboratories, but it works the same way in everyday reality. We manifest our own experiences. Science does not prove that our consciousness must be a product of our material brain. On the contrary. Consciousness emerging from the brain is just a belief. This boo...

Makes critical topics accessible by illustrating them with simple examples and figures Presents modern quantum mechanical concepts systematically and applies them consistently throughout the book Covers foundational topics, including transition probabilities, crystal structure, reciprocal lattices, and Bloch theorem to build understanding of applications, such as lasers and semiconductor devices Features expanded exercises and problems at the end of each chapter as well as multiple appendi...

Maxwell's equations are four of the most influential equations in science. In this book, each equation is the subject of an entire chapter, making it a wonderful resource for undergraduate and graduate courses in electromagnetism and electromagnetics.

Focus on the fundamentals and help students see connections between problem types Richard Wolfson's Essential University Physics is a concise and progressive calculus-based physics textbook that offers clear writing, great problems, and relevant real-life applications in an affordable and streamlined text. The book teaches sound problem-solving strategies and emphasises conceptual understanding, using features such as annotated figures and step-by-step problem-solving strategies. Realising st...

Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica (Latin for Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy), often referred to as simply the Principia, is a work in three books by Isaac Newton, in Latin, first published 5 July 1687. After annotating and correcting his personal copy of the first edition, Newton published two further editions, in 1713 and 1726. The Principia states Newton's laws of motion, forming the foundation of classical mechanics; Newton's law of universal gravitation; and a de...
