Group-Theoretic Methods in Mechanics and Applied Mathematics

Group-Theoretic Methods in Mechanics and Applied Mathematics

Group analysis of differential equations has applications to various problems in nonlinear mechanics and physics. For the first time this book gives the systematic group analysis of main postulates of classical and relativistic mechanics. The consistent presentation of Lie group theory is illustrated by plentiful examples. Symmetries and conservation laws of differential equations are studied. Specific equations and problems of mechanics and physics are considered and exact solutions are given for the following equations: dynamics of rigid body heat transfer wave hydrodynamics Thomas-Fermi and more. The author pays particular attention to the application of group analysis to developing asymptotic methods of applied mathematics in problems with small parameter. The methods are used to solve basic equations (Van Der Pol's equation Duffing equation etc. ) encountered in the theory of nonlinear oscillations. This book is intended for a wide range of scientists engineers and students in the fields of applied mathematics mechanics and physics. | Group-Theoretic Methods in Mechanics and Applied Mathematics

This book dives into topics that every indie developer should know. – Yukon Wainczak Founder of Snoozy Kazoo I’ve seen no better guide for understanding how the video game industry really works. An important read for anyone whose work touches games including those of us looking to engage the community. – Carla Warner Director of STREAM for No Kid Hungry The Business of Indie Games explores what many universities forget to cover: how to sell and market your own indie game to potential publishers and developers. While many classes help students on their way to designing and programming their own games there are few classes that equip students with the skills to sell their own product. In essence this means future indie game developers are not equipped to talk to investors negotiate with publishers and engage with major platforms like Steam and Nintendo. Authors Alex Josef Alex Van Lepp and Marshal D. Carper are looking to rectify this problem by helping indie game developers and companies level up their business acumen. With detailed chapters and sections that deal with different engines negotiation tactics and marketing The Business of Indie Games is the perfect omnibus for up-and-coming indie game developers. The future of gaming curriculums is not just in teaching students how to create games but also in preparing them for the business of games. | The Business of Indie Games Everything You Need to Know to Conquer the Indie Games Industry
