The Annenbergs


Book Description

"This is the colorful and dramatic biography of two of America's most controversial entrepreneurs: Moses Louis Annenberg, 'the racing wire king, ' who built his fortune in racketeering, invested it in publishing, and lost much of it in the biggest tax evasion case in United States history; and his son, Walter, launcher of TV Guide and Seventeen magazines and former ambassador to Great Britain."--Jacket.




Geometric Analysis of Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations


Book Description

Symmetry in Mechanical Engineering


Book Description

Recent advancements in mechanical engineering are an essential topic for discussion. The topics relating to mechanical engineering include the following: measurements of signals of shafts, springs, belts, bearings, gears, rotors, machine elements, vibration analysis, acoustic analysis, fault diagnosis, construction, analysis of machine operation, analysis of smart-material systems, integrated systems, stresses, analysis of deformations, analysis of mechanical properties, signal processing of mechanical systems, and rotor dynamics. Mechanical engineering deals with solid and fluid mechanics, rotation, movements, materials, and thermodynamics. This book, with 15 published articles, presents the topic “Symmetry in Mechanical Engineering”. The presented topic is interesting. It is categorized into eight different sections: Deformation; Stresses; Mechanical properties; Tribology; Thermodynamic; Measurement; Fault diagnosis; Machine. The development of techniques and methods related to mechanical engineering is growing every month. The described articles have made a contribution to mechanical engineering. The proposed research can find applications in factories, oil refineries, and mines. It is essential to develop new improved methods, techniques, and devices related to mechanical engineering.







Integral Equations


Book Description

Linear and non-linear integral equations of the first and second kinds have many applications in engineering and real life problems. Thus, we try to find efficient and accurate methods to solve these problems. The aim of this editorial is to overview the content of the Special Issue "Integral Equations: Theories, Approximations and Applications". This Special Issue collects innovative contributions addressing the top challenges in integral equations, integro-differential equations, multi-dimensional problems, and ill-posed and singular problems with modern applications. It covers linear and non-linear integral equations of the first and second kinds, singular and ill-posed kernels, system of integral equations, high-dimensional problems, and especially new numerical, analytical, and semi-analytical methods for solving the problems mentioned by focusing on modern applications.
