Elementary Mechanics Using Python
(Springer, 2015)This book was developed as a textbook for use in the course “Introduction to Mechanics” in the Department of Physics at the University of Oslo starting 2007. In this course we aimed at providing a seamless integration ... -
Handbook of Cardiac Anatomy, Physiology, and Devices
(Springer, 2015)Personalized medicine, clinical imaging, and the medical device industry continue to grow at an incredibly rapid pace. Further, our overall understanding of the molecular basis of diseases steadily increases, as does the ... -
Linear and Nonlinear Programming
(Springer, 2016)This book is intended as a text covering the central concepts of practical optimization techniques. It is designed for either self-study by professionals or classroom work at the undergraduate or graduate level for ... -
Fundamentals of Clinical Trials
(Springer, 2015)The clinical trial is “the most definitive tool for evaluation of the applicability of clinical research.” It represents “a key research activity with the potential to improve the quality of health care and control costs ... -
Python For ArcGIS
(Springer, 2015)Imagine... You’ve just begun a new job as a GIS specialist for the National Park Service. Your supervisor has asked you to analyze some wildlife data. She gives you a specifi c example to start with: One data table (Bird ... -
The Finite Volume Method in Computational Fluid Dynamics
(Springer, 2016)The impetus to write this book came about from three sources: The first source was the bi-yearly computational fluid dynamics (CFD) course, which has been offered over the last 15 years at the American University of ... -
Physical Chemistry from a Different Angle
(Springer, 2016)Experience has shown that two fundamental thermodynamic quantities are especially difficult to grasp: entropy and chemical potential—entropy S as quantity associated with temperature T and chemical potential μ as quantity ... -
Data Mining
(Springer, 2015)The field of data mining has seen rapid strides over the past two decades, especially from the perspective of the computer science community. While data analysis has been studied extensively in the conventional field of ... -
Data Structures and Algorithms with Python
(Springer, 2015)Thanks for choosing Data Structures and Algorithms with Python. This text was written based on classroom notes for two courses, an introductory data structures and algorithms course and an advanced data structures and ... -
Intermediate Physics for Medicine and Biology
(Springer, 2015)From the Preface to the Third Edition, by Russell K. Hobbie: Between 1971 and 1973 I audited all the courses medical students take in their first 2 years at the University of Minnesota. I was amazed at the amount of ... -
Applied Partial Differential Equations
(Springer, 2015)The goal of this new edition is the same as that for the original, namely, to present a one-semester treatment of the basic ideas encountered in partial differential equations (PDEs). The text is designed for a 3-credit ... -
Linear Algebra Done Right
(Springer, 2015)You are about to teach a course that will probably give students their second exposure to linear algebra. During their first brush with the subject, your students probably worked with Euclidean spaces and matrices. In ... -
Nanotechnology: Principles and Practices
(Springer, 2015)Over the past 15 years, the scientific world has witnessed a dramatic interest in nanotechnology with research contributions from physicists, chemists, biologists as well as scientists working in the medical, agricultural, ... -
Engineering Electromagnetics
(Springer, 2015)One of the main difficulties in teaching electromagnetic fields is the perception on the part of many students that electromagnetics is essentially a supportive topic. They are told that they need to study electromagnetics ... -
Introduction to Partial Differential Equations
(Springer, 2016)The momentous revolution in science precipitated by Isaac Newton’s calculus soon revealed the central role of partial differential equations throughout mathematics and its manifold applications. Notable examples of ... -
Fundamentals of Robotic Mechanical Systems
(Springer, 2014)The aim of the Fourth Edition is the same as that of the past editions: to provide the reader with the tools needed to better understand the fundamental concepts behind the design, analysis, control, and programming of ... -
Logistics
(Springer, 2013)Globalization and Logistics are closely connected, just as Globalization and Academic Lecturing are. This poses new challenges in studying Logistics and makes textbooks in English an important tool in college and university ... -
Introduction to Mathematica for Physicists
(Springer, 2014)Computer algebra systems are widely used in pure and applied mathematics, physics, and other natural sciences, engineering, economics, as well as in higher and secondary education (see, e.g., [1–5]). For example, many ... -
Computational Physics
(Springer, 2013)This textbook introduces the main principles of computational physics, which include numerical methods and their application to the simulation of physical systems. The first edition was based on a one-year course in ... -
Policing and Minority Communities
(Springer, 2019)At the inception of professional policing in the 1820s, Sir Robert Peel emphasized the relevance of the role that the community should play in assessing the efficacy of the police and in setting the priorities for ...
