دانلود کتاب The Physics of Vibrations and Waves

The main theme of this highly successful book is that the transmission of energy by wave propogation is fundamental to almost every branch of physics. Therefore, besides giving students a thorough grounding in the theory of waves and vibrations, the book also demonstrates the pattern and unity of a large part of physics. This new edition has been thoroughly revised and has been redeisgned to meet the best contemporary standards. It includes new material on electron waves in solids using the Kronig-Penney model to show how their allowed energies are limited to Brillouin zones, The role of phonons is also discussed. An Optical Transform is used to demonstrate the modern method of lens testing. In the last two chapters the sections on chaos and solitons have been reduced but their essential contents remain. As with earlier editions, the book has a large number of problems together with hints on how to solve them. The Physics of Vibrations and Waves, 6th Edition will prove invaluable for students taking a first full course in the subject across a variety of disciplines particularly physics, engineering and mathematics.Content: Chapter 1 Simple Harmonic Motion (pages 1–35): Chapter 2 Damped Simple Harmonic Motion (pages 37–52): Chapter 3 The Forced Oscillator (pages 53–78): Chapter 4 Coupled Oscillations (pages 79–106): Chapter 5 Transverse Wave Motion (pages 107–150): Chapter 6 Longitudinal Waves (pages 151–170): Chapter 7 Waves on Transmission Lines (pages 171–197): Chapter 8 Electromagnetic Waves (pages 199–238): Chapter 9 Waves in More Than One Dimension (pages 239–266): Chapter 10 Fourier Methods (pages 267–304): Chapter 11 Waves in Optical Systems (pages 305–332): Chapter 12 Interference and Diffraction (pages 333–410): Chapter 13 Wave Mechanics (pages 411–458): Chapter 14 Non?Linear Oscillations and Chaos (pages 459–504): Chapter 15 Non?Linear Waves, Shocks and Solitons (pages 505–531):
