| Title | Traffic Flow Dynamics : Data, Models and Simulation |
| Author(s) | Treiber, Martin;Kesting, Arne |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2013. |
| Description | XIV, 506 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This textbook provides a comprehensive and instructive coverage of vehicular traffic flow dynamics and modeling. It makes this fascinating interdisciplinary topic, which to date was only documented in parts by specialized monographs, accessible to a broad readership. Numerous figures and problems with solutions help the reader to quickly understand and practice the presented concepts. This book is targeted at students of physics and traffic engineering and, more generally, also at students and professionals in computer science, mathematics, and interdisciplinary topics. It also offers material for project work in programming and simulation at college and university level. The main part, after presenting different categories of traffic data, is devoted to a mathematical description of the dynamics of traffic flow, covering macroscopic models which describe traffic in terms of density, as well as microscopic many-particle models in which each particle corresponds to a vehicle and its driver.??Focus chapters on traffic instabilities and model calibration/validation present these topics in a novel and systematic way.????Finally, the theoretical framework is shown at work in selected applications such as traffic-state and travel-time estimation, intelligent transportation systems, traffic operations management, and a detailed physics-based model for fuel consumption and emissions |

| Title | The Physical Basis of Bacterial Quorum Communication |
| Author(s) | Hagen, Stephen J |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer New York, 2015. |
| Description | IX, 252 p. 75 illus., 47 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book aims to educate physical scientists and quantitatively-oriented biologists on the application of physical experimentation and analysis, together with appropriate modeling, to understanding and interpreting microbial chemical communication and especially quorum sensing (QS). Quorum sensing describes a chemical communication behavior that is nearly universal among bacteria. Individual cells release a diffusible small molecule (an autoinducer) into their environment. A high concentration of this autoinducer serves as a signal of high population density, triggering new patterns of gene expression throughout the population. However QS is often much more complex than simple census-taking. Many QS bacteria produce and detect multiple autoinducers, which generate quorum signal cross talk with each other and with other bacterial species. QS gene regulatory networks operate in physically complex environments and respond to a range of inputs in addition to autoinducer signals. While many individual QS systems have been characterized in great molecular and chemical detail, quorum communication raises fundamental quantitative problems that increasingly attract the attention of physical scientists and mathematicians. Key questions include: What kinds of information can a bacterium gather about its environment through QS? How do QS regulatory networks employ feedback and nonlinearity, and how do they modulate or manage gene regulatory noise? How does QS function in complex, spatially structured environments such as biofilms? What physical and chemical factors in the environment ultimately constrain diffusion-based communication? What types of physical phenomena, such as motility and hysteresis, can be facilitated by QS? How can we manipulate and interpret QS behavior in complex physical environments and artificial structures? Previous books and reviews have focused on the microbiology and biochemistry of QS. With contributions by leading scientists and mathematicians working in the field of physical biology, this volume examines the interplay of diffusion and signaling, collective and coupled dynamics of gene regulation, and spatiotemporal QS phenomena. Chapters describe experimental studies of QS in natural and engineered or microfabricated bacterial environments, as well as theory and modeling of QS on intracellular as well as extracellular, macroscopic length scales. ?????????????????? Analyzes bacterial quorum sensing from a physical and mathematical perspective ?????????????????? Explores the role of spatiotemporal diffusion, physical environment, regulatory dynamics, stochasticity and information in quorum communication ?????????????????? Includes contributions from leading experimentalists, theoreticians, engineers and modelers ?????????????????? Takes a physical science and engineering approach to the subject, but will appeal to anyone with an interest in physical biology |

| Title | Spectral Methods for Uncertainty Quantification : With Applications to Computational Fluid Dynamics |
| Author(s) | Le Maitre, Olivier;Knio, Omar M |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 2010. |
| Description | XVI, 536 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book presents applications of spectral methods to problems of uncertainty propagation and quantification in model-based computations, focusing on the computational and algorithmic features of these methods most useful in dealing with models based on partial differential equations, in particular models arising in simulations of fluid flows. Spectral stochastic methods are probabilistic in nature, and are consequently rooted in the rich mathematical foundations associated with probability and measure spaces. A brief discussion is provided of only those theoretical aspects needed to set the stage for subsequent applications. These are demonstrated through detailed treatments of elementary problems, as well as in more elaborate examples involving vortex-dominated flows and compressible flows at low Mach numbers. Some recent developments are also outlined in the book, including iterative techniques (such as stochastic multigrids and Newton schemes), intrusive and non-intrusive formalisms, spectral representations using mixed and discontinuous bases, multi-resolution approximations, and adaptive techniques. Readers are assumed to be familiar with elementary methods for the numerical solution of time-dependent, partial differential equations; prior experience with spectral approximation is helpful but not essential |

| Title | Partial Differential Equations : Modelling and Numerical Simulation |
| Author(s) | Glowinski, Roland;Neittaanm??ki, Pekka |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 2008. |
| Description | XVI, 292 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book is dedicated to Olivier Pironneau. For more than 250 years partial differential equations have been clearly the most important tool available to mankind in order to understand a large variety of phenomena, natural at first and then those originating from human activity and technological development. Mechanics, physics and their engineering applications were the first to benefit from the impact of partial differential equations on modeling and design, but a little less than a century ago the Schr??dinger equation was the key opening the door to the application of partial differential equations to quantum chemistry, for small atomic and molecular systems at first, but then for systems of fast growing complexity. Mathematical modeling methods based on partial differential equations form an important part of contemporary science and are widely used in engineering and scientific applications. In this book several experts in this field present their latest results and discuss trends in the numerical analysis of partial differential equations. The first part is devoted to discontinuous Galerkin and mixed finite element methods, both methodologies of fast growing popularity. They are applied to a variety of linear and nonlinear problems, including the Stokes problem from fluid mechanics and fully nonlinear elliptic equations of the Monge-Amp??re type. Numerical methods for linear and nonlinear hyperbolic problems are discussed in the second part. The third part is concerned with domain decomposition methods, with applications to scattering problems for wave models and to electronic structure computations. The next part is devoted to the numerical simulation of problems in fluid mechanics that involve free surfaces and moving boundaries. The finite difference solution of a problem from spectral geometry has also been included in this part. Inverse problems are known to be efficient models used in geology, medicine, mechanics and many other natural sciences. New results in this field are presented in the fifth part. The final part of the book is addressed to another rapidly developing area in applied mathematics, namely, financial mathematics. The reader will find in this final part of the volume, recent results concerning the simulation of finance related processes modeled by parabolic variational inequalities |

| Title | Flows of Reactive Fluids |
| Author(s) | Prud'homme, Roger |
| Publication | Boston, MA, 1. Birkh??user Boston
2. Imprint: Birkh??user, 2010. |
| Description | XXIV, 476 p. 176 illus : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The modeling of reactive flows has progressed mainly with advances in aerospace, which gave birth to a new science called aerothermochemistry, as well as through developments in chemical and process engineering. The methods employed, the phenomena investigated, and the aims of modeling differ for each field; however, in all cases, the results obtained have considerably enriched the working knowledge of reactive flows. This work examines basic concepts and methods necessary to study reactive flows and transfer phenomena in areas such as fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, and chemistry. Specific topics covered include: * Equations of state * Transfer phenomena and chemical kinetics * Balance equations of reactive flows * Dimensionless numbers and similarity * Chemical reactors * Coupled phenomena * Turbulent flow concepts * Boundary layers and fluid layers * Reactive and nonreactive waves * Interface phenomena * Multiphase flow concepts The book presents tools of interest to graduate students, researchers in mathematical physics, and engineers who wish to investigate problems of reactive flows. Portions of the text may be used in courses on the physics of liquids or in seminars on mechanics |

| Title | Asymptotic Approximations for the Sound Generated by Aerofoils in Unsteady Subsonic Flows |
| Author(s) | Ayton, Lorna |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2015. |
| Description | XXI, 178 p. 48 illus., 6 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This thesis investigates the sound generated by solid bodies in steady subsonic flows with unsteady perturbations, as is typically used when determining the noise generated by turbulent interactions. The focus is predominantly on modelling the sound generated by blades within an aircraft engine, and the solutions are presented as asymptotic approximations. Key analytical techniques, such as the Wiener-Hopf method, and the matched asymptotic expansion method are clearly detailed. The results allow for the effect of variations in the steady flow or blade shape on the noise generated to be analysed much faster than when solving the problem numerically or considering it experimentally |

| Title | Industrial Electromagnetics Modelling : Proceedings of the POLYMODEL 6, the Sixth Annual Conference of the North East Polytechnics Mathematical Modelling and Computer Simulation Group, held at the Moat House Hotel, Newcastle upon Tyne, May 1983 |
| Author(s) | Caldwell, J;Bradley, R |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 1983. |
| Description | IX, 234 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | During the past few years the rapid development of computer tech?? nology has made high power computing facilities more readily accessible to a greater proportion of our industrial and academic community. This development coupled with the recent upsurge in mathematical modelling and computer simulation has led to signif?? icant developments in electromagnetic field theory and its applic?? ations to industry. In view of such developments and the present high interest to both academics and industry the theme chosen for the Polymodel 6 Conference held at Newcastle upon Tyne in May 1983 was Industrial Electromagnetics Modelling. To date the North East Polytechnics Mathematical Modelling and Computer Simulation Group has organised five successful Polymodel. conferences each with a different theme. The objectives of the Polymodel group include the promotion of collaborative research between Newcastle, Sunderland and Teesside Polytechnics and industry in the areas of mathematical modelling and computer simulation. The aim of the Polymodel 6 Conference was to call on and use the modelling and computer.simulation expertise of eminent academics and industrialists who are deeply involved in the area of electro?? magnetics. These proceedings have a twofold purpose in that they contain current analytical and numerical techniques relevant to electromagnetic field problems and useful ideas on the modelling and simulation techniques which are most appropriate. It was also felt important to include implications. of. computer developments (both hardware and software) on such work |

| Title | Mathematical and Statistical Developments of Evolutionary Theory |
| Author(s) | Lessard, S |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 1990. |
| Description | 380 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Mathematical and statistical approaches to evolutionary theory are numerous. The NATO Advanced Study Institute (ASI) held at the Universite de Montreal, Montreal, August 3-21, 1987, was an opportunity to review most of the classical approaches and to study the more recent developments. The participation of theoretical biologists and geneticists as well as applied mathematicians and statisticians made possible exchanges of ideas between students and scholars having different views on the subject. These Proceedings contain the lecture notes of seven (7) of the eleven (11) series of lectures that were given. ESS (Evolutionarily Stable Stragety) theory is considered from many perspectives, from a game-theoretic approach to understanding behavior and evolution (W.G.S. Hines), and a systematic classification of properties and patterns of ESS's (C. Cannings) to particular applications of the differential geometry of the Shahshahani metric (E. Akin). Extensions of ESS theory to sexual populations and finite populations, not to mention games between relatives, are presented (W.G.S. Hines). Special attention is given to the classical game called the War of Attrition but with n players and random rewards (C. Cannings). The Shahshahani metric is also used to show the occurrence of cycling in the two-locus, two-allele model (E. Akin). Various inference problems in population genetics are adressed. Procedures to detect and measure selection components and polymorphism (in particular, the Wahlund effect) at one or several loci from mother-offspring combinations in natural populations are discussed at length (F.B. Christiansen) |
