This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricate world of heat conduction, a fundamental phenomenon in physics that governs the transfer of thermal energy through materials. The author explores this topic through the lens of mathematical analysis, providing a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the principles that govern heat flow. The book traces its roots back to the pioneering work of Joseph Fourier, whose groundbreaking theory of heat provided a mathematical framework for understanding this complex process. Building on Fourier's insights, the author examines a wide range of applications, from the steady-state flow of heat in simple geometries to the intricate patterns of heat transfer in more complex systems. The text takes the reader through a journey of discovery, exploring the differential equations that describe heat conduction, analyzing the behavior of heat waves in various media, and examining the interplay between conductivity and emissivity in determining the rate of heat transfer. The book also delves into the historical context of heat conduction research, highlighting the contributions of key figures like Kelvin and Angstrom. By weaving together mathematical analysis, historical context, and practical applications, this book offers a compelling and insightful exploration of heat conduction, its theoretical underpinnings, and its relevance to a wide range of scientific disciplines. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780282617998_0
