Book Description

In classical Newtonian mechanics, equations and formulas never change form. The same thing cannot be said about the equations and formulas of electromagnetic theory, which often change form when converted from one system of units to another. This work aims to provide the technical professional with an explanation of how to convert electromagnetic equations from one system of units to another. The level is geared to professionals and students who have a sound understanding of electricity and magnetism. It explains all five systems of electromagnetic units in depth, four connected to the centimetre-gram-second (cgs) system of mechanical units and one connected to the metre-kilogram-second (mks) system of mechanical units - commonly called the Systeme International.

Book Description

This profound challenge to some of the most fundamental orthodoxies of modern nuclear physics grew from its author's discovery that, for all its success and sophistication, atomic theory has failed to provide a coherant explanation for the everyday phenomenon of electricity. M.L. Coleman located the source of the problem in the assumption that there are two different atomic particles carrying electrical charges, the electron with a negative charge and a position with a positive charge. The author boldly argues that there is, in fact, only one such particle, carrying both charges. He christens this single particle the "Eptron" A largely self educated scientist, Mr. Coleman remains a proud heir to the classical tradition stemming from Newton and clearly demonstrates how nuclear theory has failed to make sense of the basic phenomena of electricity, magnetism, and gravity which puzzled and inspired early physicists. The author reached his revolutionary conclusions by combining his mastery of both classical and modern theory with, in his own words, "A little common sense." Of course, a great deal of arduous research, creative experiment, and complex methematical thought to confirm his arguments. With rigor and clarity, he shows not only that the hypothesis of the Eptron is more elegant and economical than that of the seperate electrons and positrons, but also that it makes both direct and alternating current explicable for the first time in terms of nuclear physics. "All I have done," he explains with disarming honesty, "Is explain how electricity works." Eptron theory involves a radical new understanding not just of electricity, but of light itself. Through collisions with oneanother, Eptrons are transformed into photons and then back into Eptrons by the process of expansion and contraction which the eye perceives as light. While the higher reaches of his mathematics are addressed to the scientific community, the book as a whole is designed for laymen as well, and they will learn an enormous amount along the way, not just about Eptrons, but also about the history of Physics. "Demystifying Electricity" throws down a gauntlet to modern science that it cannot afford to ignore and reclaims nuclear theory in the name of common sense. "If my work is made available to young chemists, physicists, and electrical engineers," the author asserts with justifiable pride," I believe they will study it and find it correct."

Book Description

Problem solving in computing is referred to as computational thinking. The theory behind this concept is challenging in its technicalities, yet simple in its ideas. This book introduces the theory of computation from its inception to current form of complexity; from explanations of how the field of computer science was formed using classical ideas in mathematics by Gödel, to conceptualization of the Turing Machine, to its more recent innovations in quantum computation, hypercomputation, vague computing and natural computing. It describes the impact of these in relation to academia, business and wider society, providing a sound theoretical basis for its practical application.Written for accessibility, Demystifying Computation provides the basic knowledge needed for non-experts in the field, undergraduate computer scientists and students of information and communication technology and software development.

Book Description

This book demystifies the models we use to simulate present and future climates, allowing readers to better understand how to use climate model results. In order to predict the future trajectory of the Earth’s climate, climate-system simulation models are necessary. When and how do we trust climate model predictions? The book offers a framework for answering this question. It provides readers with a basic primer on climate and climate change, and offers non-technical explanations for how climate models are constructed, why they are uncertain, and what level of confidence we should place in them. It presents current results and the key uncertainties concerning them. Uncertainty is not a weakness but understanding uncertainty is a strength and a key part of using any model, including climate models. Case studies of how climate model output has been used and how it might be used in the future are provided. The ultimate goal of this book is to promote a better understanding of the structure and uncertainties of climate models among users, including scientists, engineers and policymakers.

Book Description

This book presents an emerging new vision of the brain, which is essentially expressed in computational terms, for non-experts. As such, it presents the fundamental concepts of neuroscience in simple language, without overwhelming non-biologists with excessive biological jargon. In addition, the book presents a novel computational perspective on the brain for biologists, without resorting to complex mathematical equations. It addresses a comprehensive range of topics, starting with the history of neuroscience, the function of the individual neuron, the various kinds of neural network models that can explain diverse neural phenomena, sensory-motor function, language, emotions, and concluding with the latest theories on consciousness. The book offers readers a panoramic introduction to the “new brain” and a valuable resource for interdisciplinary researchers looking to gatecrash the world of neuroscience.
