Description for Vorticity, Statistical Mechanics, and Monte Carlo Simulation
hardcover. This book is drawn from across many active fields of mathematics and physics. With fresh insights into an important field, the book addresses how to access interesting, original, and publishable research in statistical modeling of large-scale flows and related fields. Series: Springer Monographs in Mathematics. Num Pages: 304 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBT. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 19. Weight in Grams: 1340.
This book is meant for an audience of advanced undergraduates and graduate students taking courses on the statistical mechanics approach to turbulent ?ows and on stochastic simulations. It is also suitable for the self-study of professionals involved in the research and modelling of large scale stochastic ?uid ?ows with a substantial vortical component. Several related ideas motivate the approach in this book, namely, the application of equilibrium statistical mechanics to two-dimensional and 2- dimensional ?uid ?ows in the spirit of Onsager [337], and Kraichnan [227], is taken to be a valid starting point, and the primary importance of non-linear convection ...

Reviews for Vorticity, Statistical Mechanics, and Monte Carlo Simulation
From the reviews: "The textbook for advanced undergraduate students is written to provide an overview of many aspects encountered in classical and quantum statistical mechanics. … This volume is a convincing invitation to modern mathematical concepts and new techniques. It will prove useful and attractive to graduate students and teachers in this active field." (Vicentin ... Read more
