The N-Vortex Problem: Analytical Techniques
Book information
Description
From the reviews: ZENTRALBLATT MATH "Exercises given at the end of each chapter could be very useful to the readers to enhance their knowledge…the first three chapters deal with the basic classical two-dimensional point vortex theory, and the rest of the book takes care of the recent applications and extensions of the basic theory. The references are adequate for further study. Many open problems associated with N-vortex motion are also listed. The book is a welcome addition to the book shelves of researchers pursuing the N-vortex problem." MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS "Although several other books on vortex dynamics have appeared in recent years, none have the level of detail on these discrete vortex models that Newton achieves. The book is sure to be a key reference work on this area for many years to come. Students of fluid mechanics will find much valuable material here on modern dynamics applied to problems of interest to them. Applied mathematicians will find an entree to frontline problems of fluid mechanics using tools with which they are eminently familiar." "This is a very timely addition to the literature. … Exercises are scattered throughout the book, many of them quite substantial. … A massive bibliography - a treasure in itself - concludes the text. Although several other books on vortex dynamics have appeared in recent years, none have the level of detail on these discrete vortex models that Newton achieves. The book is sure to be a key reference work on this area for many years to come." (Hassan Aref, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2002 f) "The goal of this book is to describe the Hamilton aspects of vortex dynamics in such a way that graduate students and researchers can use this book as an entry level text to the rather large literature on integrable and non-integrable vortex problems … . The book is well written with each chapter containing useful biographical notes and exercises. Of particular note is the extensive list of seven hundred and seventy four references." (Ernie Kalnins, New Zealand Mathematical Society Newsletter, Issue 85, 2002) "The author describes Hamiltonian aspects of vortex dynamics, enabling graduate students and researchers to use this book as an entry point into large literature on integrable and nonintegrable vortex problems. … Exercises given at the end of each chapter could be very useful to the readers to enhance their knowledge. … The references are adequate for further study. … The book is a welcome addition to book shelves of researchers pursuing the N-vortex problem."

Professional Linux kernel architecture ''Wrox programmer to programmer''--Cover. - ''What you are reading right now is the result of an evolution over more than seven years: After two years of writing, the first edition was published in German by Carl Hanser Verlag in 2003. It then described kernel 2.6.0. The test was used as a basis for the low-level design documentation for the EAL4+ security evaluation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, requiring to update it to kernel 2.6.18 (if the EAL acronym does not mean anything to you, then Wikipedia is once more your friend). Hewlett-Packard sponsored the translation into English and has, thankfully, granted the rights to publish the result. Updates to kernel 2.6.24 were then performed specifically for this book''--P. ix
