Classical Mechanics, 1st ed. 2018 Undergraduate Lecture Notes in Physics Series

Langue : Anglais

Auteurs :

Couverture de l’ouvrage Classical Mechanics

This textbook provides an introduction to classical mechanics at a level intermediate between the typical undergraduate and advanced graduate level. This text describes the background and tools for use in the fields of modern physics, such as quantum mechanics, astrophysics, particle physics, and relativity. Students who have had basic undergraduate classical mechanics or who have a good understanding of the mathematical methods of physics will benefit from this book.

Elementary Newtonian mechanics.- Principle of virtual work and Lagrange's equations.- Hamilton's principle and action integrals.- Central force problems.-   Scattering.- Rigid body kinematics.- Rigid body dynamics.-  Small oscillations.- Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations for continuous systems and fields.- Special relativity.- A Vector calculus.- B Differential forms.- C Calculus of variations.- D Linear algebra.- E Special functions.

BOOKS:
“An Introduction to the Evolution of Single and Binary Stars”, M. Benacquista, Springer, New York.
(2012).

Contains an early introduction of D’Alembert’s principle, variational principles and Lagrangian & Hamiltonian mechanics

Provides an ideal blend of general concepts and methods which are then applied to important classes of problems

Uses Lagrangian and Hamiltonian methods at an early stage to give an entirely different way to set up and solve motion problems
