Computational Dynamicsby Ahmed Shabana
John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2001; US$ 145.00A practical approach to the computational methods used to solve real-world dynamics problems Computational dynamics has grown rapidly in recent years with the advent of high-speed digital computers and the need to develop simulation and analysis computational capabilities for mechanical and aerospace systems that consist of interconnected bodies. Computational Dynamics , Second Edition offers a full introduction to the concepts, definitions, and techniques used in multibody dynamics and presents essential topics concerning kinematics and dynamics of motion in two and three dimensions. Skillfully organized into eight chapters that mirror the standard learning sequence of computational dynamics courses, this Second Edition begins with a... more...
Conceptual Roots of Mathematicsby J.R. Lucas
Routledge 1999; US$ 150.00The Conceptual Roots of Mathematics is a comprehensive study of the foundation of mathematics. Lucas shows us that the philosophy of mathematics is actually at the heart of the study of epistemology and metaphysics. more...

The Rational Spirit in Modern Continuum Mechanicsby Chi-Sing Man; Roger L. Fosdick
Springer 2004; US$ 209.00Through his voluminous and influential writings, editorial activities, organizational leadership, intellectual acumen, and strong sense of history, Clifford A. Truesdell (1919-2000) was the main architect for the renaissance of rational continuum mechanics since the middle of the 20th century. This collection of 42 essays and research papers pays tribute to this man of mathematics, science, and natural philosophy as well as to his legacy. There are essays of personal reminiscences (including contributions from J. Serrin, W. Noll, and B.D. Coleman among others), as are papers at the forefronts of research in rational continuum mechanics and its applications to materials science and structural mechanics. With historical photographs, a curriculum... more...
