Oscillations and waves : an introduction
Material type: TextPublication details: Boca Raton CRC Press 2019Edition: 2Description: 299 pISBN: 9781138479715Subject(s): Wave-motion, Theory of | OscillationsDDC classification: 531.32 Summary: "Emphasizing physics over mathematics, Oscillations and Waves: An Introduction includes many examples from discrete mechanical, optical, and quantum mechanical systems; continuous gases, fluids, and elastic solids; electronic circuits; and electromagnetic waves. The author covers aspects of optics that crucially depend on the wave-like nature of light, such as wave optics. He also introduces the conventional complex representation of oscillations and waves during the discussion of quantum mechanical waves. In the second edition of this successful, class-tested book, the author has added widgets and animations in Python and a large number of new exericses, as well as new content throughout"--Item type | Current library | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
