Synopsis

This textbook gives a detailed explanation of waves and oscillations in classical physics. These classical phenomena are dealt with at a more advanced level than is customary for second-year courses. All aspects of classical wave physics are presented, including the mathematical and physical basis needed for extended understanding. Finally several chapters are devoted to important topics in current wave physics. Special attention is given to nonlinear waves, solitons, chaotic behaviour and associated phenomena. The third edition contains improvements such as full development of Green's functions, a broadening of the treatment of wave mechanics and a closer integration with classical mechanics, plus more examples and problems. This textbook is directed primarily at undergraduate students in physics, mathematics and engineering, but it is also useful as a reference for graduate students, and for professors looking for exercises and examination problems in related courses.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book details all mathematical and physical aspects of classical wave phenomena. Coverage in this new edition includes an explanation of Green's function, reinforcing the integration of quantum mechanics with classical physics.
