Abstract

Les propos tenus entre Herman Byrd et Lionel Estève (né en 1967 à Lyon, vit à Bruxelles, Belgique), richement documentés et illustrés, sont ici autant d entrées vers l Suvre de l artiste, traversant l universalité des matériaux, l exactitude de la couleur, la perception de la lumière, l univers de l enfance. L artiste et son interlocuteur nous emmènent en creux dans ce travail représenté par les galeries Perrotin, Albert Baronian et Bernier.

Abstract

Unified Non-Local Theory of Transport Processess, 2nd Edition provides a new theory of transport processes in gases, plasmas and liquids. It is shown that the well-known Boltzmann equation, which is the basis of the classical kinetic theory, is incorrect in the definite sense. Additional terms need to be added leading to a dramatic change in transport theory. The result is a strict theory of turbulence and the possibility to calculate turbulent flows from the first principles of physics. Fully revised and expanded edition, providing applications in quantum non-local hydrodynamics, quantum sol

Abstract

This book focuses on mathematical problems concerning different applications in physics, engineering, chemistry and biology. It covers topics ranging from interacting particle systems to partial differential equations (PDEs), statistical mechanics and dynamical systems. The purpose of the second meeting on Particle Systems and PDEs was to bring together renowned researchers working actively in the respective fields, to discuss their topics of expertise and to present recent scientific results in both areas. Further, the meeting was intended to present the subject of interacting particle systems, its roots in and impacts on the field of physics, and its relation with PDEs to a vast and varied public, including young researchers. The book also includes the notes from two mini-courses presented at the conference, allowing readers who are less familiar with these areas of mathematics to more easily approach them. The contributions will be of interest to mathematicians, theoretical physicists and other researchers interested in interacting particle systems, partial differential equations, statistical mechanics, stochastic processes, kinetic theory, dynamical systems and mathematical modeling aspects.

Abstract

L'auteur prend un soin extrême à situer la mécanique quantique dans son développement historique, pour ne pas placer le lecteur face à l'énoncé de postulats arbitraires qui pourraient le rebuter. L'ensemble est très rigoureux, clairement exposé, et les notions sont abondamment discutées au fur et à mesure de leur introduction. Ce premier tome, correspondant à un enseignement de 3e année, est divisé en deux parties. La première partie analyse les expériences cruciales de la physique microscopique qui, à l'orée du XXe siècle, ont imposé une révision radicale des concepts pour la compréhension des phénomènes à l'échelle atomique. Cette partie revient sur des notions fondamentales de mécanique, de statistique et d'électromagnétisme, et donne l'occasion de raisonner physiquement et de manipuler des ordres de grandeur. Elle fournit enfin le prétexte idéal à une introduction élémentaire de la mécanique analytique, souvent absente des cursus. Cette partie se termine par une présentation comparée des deux premières versions de la mécanique quantique : la mécanique des matrices de Heisenberg et la mécanique ondulatoire de Schrödinger. La deuxième partie commence par une synthèse des idées rassemblées antérieurement, autorisant l'énoncé des postulats sur la base du sens physique, et la mise en place intuitive et pragmatique du formalisme mathématique nécessaire. Par la suite, l'accent est mis sur le lien indissoluble entre le contenu physique de la théorie et sa conséquence la plus spectaculaire : la quantification de certaines grandeurs physiques. Les problèmes les plus simples (potentiels constants par morceaux) sont ensuite traités en détail, révélant les comportements étranges prévus par la théorie quantique, et mettant en évidence l'extrême singularité de la limite classique. Ce tome s'achève par le traitement de l'oscillateur harmonique, allant jusqu'à l'introduction des opérateurs de création et d'annihilation et la définition des états cohérents. Cet ouvrage est issu d'une expérience d'enseignement pendant plusieurs années en Licence et Maîtrise de Physique de l'Université Pierre et Marie Curie (Paris 6) et à l'Ecole Normale Supérieure (Ulm).

Abstract

This text covers the fundamentals of thermodynamics required to understand electrical power generation systems and the application of these principles to nuclear reactor power plant systems. It is not a traditional general thermodynamics text, per se, but a practical thermodynamics volume intended to explain the fundamentals and apply them to the challenges facing actual nuclear power plants systems, where thermal hydraulics comes to play.  Written in a lucid, straight-forward style while retaining scientific rigor, the content is accessible to upper division undergraduate students and aimed at practicing engineers in nuclear power facilities and engineering scientists and technicians in industry, academic research groups, and national laboratories. The book is also a valuable resource for students and faculty in various engineering programs concerned with nuclear reactors. This book also: Provides extensive coverage of thermal hydraulics with thermodynamics in nuclear reactors, beginning with fundamental definitions of units and dimensions, thermodynamic variables, and the Laws of Thermodynamics progressing to sections on specific applications of the Brayton and Rankine cycles for power generation and projected reactor systems design issues Reinforces fundamentals of fluid dynamics and heat transfer; thermal and hydraulic analysis of nuclear reactors, two-phase flow and boiling, compressible flow, stress analysis, and energy conversion methods Includes detailed appendices that cover metric and English system units and conversions, detailed steam and gas tables, heat transfer properties, and nuclear reactor system descriptions.
