A Treatise on Dynamics of a Particle With Numerous Examples Cambridge Library Collection - Mathematics Series
Langue : Anglais
Auteur : Routh Edward John
Published in 1898, this textbook offers extensive coverage of dynamics, with formulae and examples throughout.
As senior wrangler in 1854, Edward John Routh (1831?1907) was the man who beat James Clerk Maxwell in the Cambridge mathematics tripos. He went on to become a highly successful coach in mathematics at Cambridge, producing a total of twenty-seven senior wranglers during his career - an unrivalled achievement. In addition to his considerable teaching commitments, Routh was also a very able and productive researcher who contributed to the foundations of control theory and to the modern treatment of mechanics. This textbook, first published in 1898, offers extensive coverage of dynamics, providing formulae and examples throughout. While the growth of modern physics and mathematics may have forced out the problem-based mechanics of Routh's textbooks from the undergraduate syllabus, the utility and importance of his work is undiminished.
