(Springer, 2018)Over one billion people do not have access to electricity. The majority live in developing countries in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia. The consequences of this form of energy poverty can be severe. Most activities ... -
Optimization of Process Flowsheets through Metaheuristic Techniques
(Springer, 2019)This book presents a general framework to implement a link between process simulators and optimization through metaheuristic techniques. The book describes step-by- step the methodology to implement this link for ... -
Ordinary Differential Equations
(Springer, 2012)This text is intended for the introductory three- or four-hour one-semester sophomore level differential equations course traditionally taken by students majoring in science or engineering. The prerequisite is the standard ... -
Partial Differential Equations
(Springer, 2013)This is the third edition of my textbook intended for students who wish to obtain an introduction to the theory of partial differential equations (PDEs, for short). Why is there a new edition? The answer is simple: I ... -
Particles and Nuclei
(Springer, 2015)Since the first German edition of this textbook in 1993, many extensions and corrections of the text have been added in every further edition. For the present seventh English edition, the text of several chapters and ... -
Perceptual Organization
(Springer, 2019)The goal here is to describe some of the processes underlying how the auditory, tactual and visual modalities and their combinations convert sensory inputs into two- and three-dimensional objects. Those processes are a ... -

(Springer, 2015)Physical asset management is the management of fixed assets such as machinery, vehicles, equipment, plant, buildings, and infrastructure. This book presents a systematic approach to the management of these assets from ... -
Physical Chemistry from a Different Angle
(Springer, 2016)Experience has shown that two fundamental thermodynamic quantities are especially difficult to grasp: entropy and chemical potential—entropy S as quantity associated with temperature T and chemical potential μ as quantity ... -
Physics from Symmetry
(Springer, 2018)In the course of studying physics I became, like any student of physics, familiar with many fundamental equations and their solutions, but I wasn’t really able to see their connection. I was thrilled when I understood ... -
Physics of Oscillations and Waves
(Springer, 2018)The University of Oslo in Norway is one of the first universities to introduce numerical methods as an integral part of almost all mathematically oriented courses for science students (first attempts started in 1997). ...
