Newton Mathematical Principles

Williams, Kim; Caparrini, S. Discovering the Principles of Mechanics 1600-1800, BIRKHÄUSER, ISBN: 3764385642
This book assembles 21 essays on the history of mechanics and mathematical physics written by David Speiser. Covering a period from the beginning of the seventeenth century to the eighteenth, the essays discuss developments in elasticity, rigid bodies, gravitation, the principle of relativity, optics, and first principles. They examine the work of Galileo, Huygens, Newton, Leibniz, the Bernoullis, Euler, Maupertuis, and Lambert.

Greiner, Walter: Classical Mechanics Point Particles and Relativity. Forew. by D. A. Bromley, SPRINGER, BERLIN, Januar 2004, Besorgungstitel - vorauss. Lieferzeit 3-5 Tage. ISBN: 0387955860
The series of texts on Classical Theoretical Physics is based on the highly successful series of courses given by Walter Greiner at the Johann Wolfgang Goethe University in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. Intended for advanced undergraduates and beginning graduate students, the volumes in the series provide not only a complete survey of classical theoretical physics but also an enormous number of worked examples and problems to show students clearly how to apply the abstract principles to realistic problems. TOC:Part I: Vector Calculus Introduction and Basic Definitions; The Scalar Product; Component Representation of a Vector; The Vector Product (Axial Vector); The Triple Scalar Product; Application of Vector Calculus; Differentiation and Integration of Vectors; The Moving Trihedral -- the Frenet Formulae; Areas in Space; Coordinate Frames; Vector Differential Operations; Determination of Line Integrals, The Integral Theorems of Gauss and Stokes; Calculation of Surface Integrals; Volume (Space) Integrals.- Part II: Newtonian Mechanics Newton's Axioms; Basic Concepts of Mechanics; The General Linear Motion; The Free Fall; Friction; The Harmonic Oscillator; Mathematical Interlude -- Series Expansion, Euler's Formulas; The Damped Harmonic Oscillator; The Pendulum; Mathematical Deepening: Differential Equations; Planetary Motions; Special Problems in Central Fields; The Earth and Our Solar System.- Part III: Theory of Relativity Relativity Principle and Michelson-Morley Experiment; The Lorentz.
