Sobre este artículo
Cambridge, England et al.: Cambridge University Press, 1990 WYSIWYG pricing--no added shipping charge for standard shipping within USA. Laminated pictorial covers, white titles on spine, xi, 423 pp, many figures, bibliography, author index, subject index. Head of spine bumped, slight wear to covers. Beginning wave mechanics courses usually make simplifying assumptions about the forces that create waves, assuming that they vary linearly in proportion to displacement of the medium. This book examines the behavior of waves in systems in which the forces are not linear. Contents: linear waves & instabilities in infinite media; convective & non-convective instabilities; group velocity in unstable media; surface waves & instabilities; model equations for small amplitude waves & solitons-weakly nonlinear theory; exact methods for fully nonlinear waves; Cartesian solitons in one & two space dimensions; evolution & stability of initially one-dimensional waves & solitons; cylindrical & spherical solitons in plasmas & other media; non-coherent phenomena. Appendices: parameter stretching as suggested by linear dispersion relations; relation between the trace method & the inverse scattering method; some formulae for perturbed nonlinear ion acoustic waves & solitons; a model equation for spherical solitons. Shipping weight 3 lbs.. First Edition. Trade Paperback. VG/No dj. 22½ X 15 cm.

Twin City Antiquarian Books
Books are offered subject to prior sale. You may return any book within 14 days for a refund; if it was not as described, we will also refund return shipping costs (but please e-mail us first). You can place credit card orders through Biblio, or we will ship upon receipt of payment by check or money order. Sales tax is collected by Biblio and remitted directly to your state, where applicable. SHIPPING IN UNITED STATES: Books are priced postpaid, so there are no additional shipping charges for standard shipping. We will ship via Priority Mail for $12.00 per order (Save on multiple-book orders!). This may be reduced if actual postage is less than for a medium flat-rate box. INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: In most cases, shipping via Biblio's consolidated shipping program via Asendia is the cheapest option on orders up to 5 lbs. International shipping rates are complex (cost depends upon weight and destination), so please feel free to email us for a quote before you order. If the actual cost of shipping is more than the automatically quoted rate, you must approve the additional charges before the order will be shipped. Shipping charges will be reduced if shipping weight is under 3 lbs. All shipping charges (except via Asendia) include 17% to cover Biblio fees and commissions that apply to these charges. LIBRARIES: We offer flexible terms to public and university libraries.
