Book Synopsis The Discovery of Dynamics by : Julian B. Barbour
Download or read book The Discovery of Dynamics written by Julian B. Barbour. This book was released on 2001-09-06. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever since Newton created dynamics, there has been controversy about its foundations. Are space and time absolute? Do they form a rigid but invisible framework and container of the universe? Or are space, time, and motion relative? If so, does Newton's 'framework' arise through the influence of the universe at large, as Ernst Mach suggested? Einstein's aim when creating his general theory of relativity was to demonstrate this and thereby implement 'Mach's Principle'. However, it is widely believed that he achieved only partial success. This question of whether motion is absolute or relative has been a central issues in philosophy; the nature of time has perennial interest. Current attempts to create a quantum description of the whole universe keep these issues at the cutting edge of modern research. Written by the world's leading expert on Mach's Principle, The Discovery of Dynamics is a highly original account of the development of notions about space, time, and motion. Widely praised in its hardback version, it is one of the fullest and most readable accounts of the astronomical studies that culminated in Kepler's laws of planetary motion and of the creation of dynamics by Galileo, Descartes, Huygens, and Newton. Originally published as Absolute or Relative Motion?, Vol. 1: The Discovery of Dynamics (Cambridge), The Discovery of Dynamics provides the technical background to Barbour's recently published The End of Time, in which he argues that time disappears from the description of the quantum universe.

Book Synopsis Analytical Elements of Mechanics by : Thomas R. Kane
Download or read book Analytical Elements of Mechanics written by Thomas R. Kane. This book was released on 2013-10-22. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analytical Elements of Mechanics, Volume 2: Dynamics focuses on the processes, methodologies, approaches, and technologies involved in classical mechanics. The book first offers information on the differentiation of vectors, including vector functions of a scalar variable; derivatives of sums and products; vector tangents of a space curve; vector binormals of a space curve; and Taylor's theorem for vector functions. The manuscript then ponders on kinematics, as well as angular velocity and acceleration, absolute and relative velocity and acceleration, and rates of change of orientation of a rigid body. The text examines second moments and laws of motion. Discussions focus on second moments of sets of particles and continuous bodies, second moments of a point, motions of rigid bodies, and linear and angular momentum. The publication is a dependable reference for readers interested in the dynamics of the analytical elements of mechanics.
