Book Synopsis Linear and Nonlinear Waves by : G. B. Whitham

Download or read book Linear and Nonlinear Waves written by G. B. Whitham and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-10-18 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in an accessible paperback edition, this classic work is just as relevant as when it first appeared in 1974, due to the increased use of nonlinear waves. It covers the behavior of waves in two parts, with the first part addressing hyperbolic waves and the second addressing dispersive waves. The mathematical principles are presented along with examples of specific cases in communications and specific physical fields, including flood waves in rivers, waves in glaciers, traffic flow, sonic booms, blast waves, and ocean waves from storms.
