Nonlinear and Parametric Phenomena

Theory and Applications in Radiophysical and Mechanical Systems

By: Vladimir Damgov

The book comprises a broad panorama of phenomena occurring in four major classes of radiophysical and mechanical systems linear, nonlinear, parametric, and nonlinear-parametric. An analytical technique for the broad circle of issues under consideration is developed. It is presented in a user-friendly form, allowing its further direct application in research practices. Analytical methods are presented for investigating modulation-parametric and nonlinear systems, oscillating systems with periodic and almost periodic time-dependent parameters, effects of adaptive self-organization in coupled resonance systems and oscillating systems under the action of external forces, nonlinear with respect to the coordinates of excited systems. Of an interdisciplinary nature, this volume can serve as a handbook for developing lecture courses such as Fundamentals of Nonlinear Dynamics and Theory of Nonlinear Oscillations, Theory of Nonlinear Circuits and Systems, Fundamentals of Radiophysics and Electronics, Theory of Signals and Theoretical Radiophysics, Theoretical Mechanics and Electrodynamics.

Think, Write, Speak

Uncollected Essays, Reviews, Interviews, and Letters to the Editor

By: Vladimir Nabokov Literary Trust,Brian Boyd

A rich compilation of the previously uncollected Russian and English prose and interviews of one of the twentieth century's greatest writers, edited by Nabokov experts Brian Boyd and Anastasia Tolstoy. “I think like a genius, I write like a distinguished author, and I speak like a child": so Vladimir Nabokov famously wrote in the introduction to his volume of selected prose, Strong Opinions. Think, Write, Speak follows up where that volume left off, with a rich compilation of his uncollected prose and interviews, from a 1921 essay about Cambridge to two final interviews in 1977. The chronological order allows us to watch the Cambridge student and the fledgling Berlin reviewer and poet turn into the acclaimed Paris émigré novelist whose stature brought him to teach in America, where his international success exploded with Lolita and propelled him back to Europe. Whether his subject is Proust or Pushkin, the sport of boxing or the privileges of democracy, Nabokov’s supreme individuality, his keen wit, and his alertness to the details of life illuminate the page.

Fractional Derivatives for Physicists and Engineers

Volume I Background and Theory Volume II Applications

By: Vladimir V. Uchaikin

The first derivative of a particle coordinate means its velocity, the second means its acceleration, but what does a fractional order derivative mean? Where does it come from, how does it work, where does it lead to? The two-volume book written on high didactic level answers these questions. Fractional Derivatives for Physicists and Engineers— The first volume contains a clear introduction into such a modern branch of analysis as the fractional calculus. The second develops a wide panorama of applications of the fractional calculus to various physical problems. This book recovers new perspectives in front of the reader dealing with turbulence and semiconductors, plasma and thermodynamics, mechanics and quantum optics, nanophysics and astrophysics. The book is addressed to students, engineers and physicists, specialists in theory of probability and statistics, in mathematical modeling and numerical simulations, to everybody who doesn't wish to stay apart from the new mathematical methods becoming more and more popular. Prof. Vladimir V. UCHAIKIN is a known Russian scientist and pedagogue, a Honored Worker of Russian High School, a member of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences. He is the author of about three hundreds articles and more than a dozen books (mostly in Russian) in Cosmic ray physics, Mathematical physics, Levy stable statistics, Monte Carlo methods with applications to anomalous processes in complex systems of various levels: from quantum dots to the Milky Way galaxy.

Harmonious Economics or The New World Order

By: Vladimir Chabanov

Modern economics, which is powered by profit, and not by benefit for people, inevitably follows pecuniary principles, and lives from rent and exploitation. It fails to stand up to modern challenges. For economy to turn into a plant producing useful goods, it should give up all liberal principles, change the economic philosophy, as well as its priorities and instruments. The theory and the properties of such an economic model are described in this monograph.

The Turkic-Turkish Theme in Traditional Malay Literature

Imagining the Other to Empower the Self

By: Vladimir Braginsky

The Turkic-Turkish Theme in Traditional Malay Literature is the first detailed study of the representation of the Turkic peoples and Ottoman Turks in Malay literature between the 14th–19th centuries. Drawing on a wide range of texts, Vladimir Braginsky uncovers manifold metamorphoses and diverse forms of localisation of this Turkic-Turkish theme. This theme has strongly influenced the religious and political ideals and political mythology of Malay society. By creating fictional rather than realistic portrayals of the Turks and Turkey, imagining the king of Rum as the origin point of Malay dynasties, and dreaming of Ottoman assistance in the jihad against the colonial powers, Malay literati ultimately sought to empower the Malay ‘self’ by bringing it closer to the Turkish ‘other’.

Vibration of Strongly Nonlinear Discontinuous Systems

By: V.I. Babitsky,Vladimir Ilʹich Babit︠s︡kiĭ,V.L. Krupenin

This monograph addresses the systematic representation of the methods of analysis developed by the authors as applied to such systems. Particular features of dynamic processes in such systems are studied. Special attention is given to an analysis of different resonant phenomena taking unusual and diverse forms.

Stability of Stationary Sets in Control Systems with Discontinuous Nonlinearities

By: Vladimir Andreevich I?A?kubovich,Gennadi? Alekseevich Leonov,Arkadi? Kha?movich Gelig

This book presents a development of the frequency-domain approach to the stability study of stationary sets of systems with discontinuous nonlinearities. The treatment is based on the theory of differential inclusions and the second Lyapunov method. Various versions of the Kalman-Yakubovich lemma on solvability of matrix inequalities are presented and discussed in detail. It is shown how the tools developed can be applied to stability investigations of relay control systems, gyroscopic systems, mechanical systems with a Coulomb friction, nonlinear electrical circuits, cellular neural networks, phase-locked loops, and synchronous machines.

Tadhkirat Al-Muluk

Tadhkirat Al-Muluk

A Manual of Safavid Administration

By: V.. Minorsky

The Tadhkirat al-Muluk is based to some extent on similar works written under the Safavids but was composed for Ashraf, the Afghan ruler of Persia (1725-1729), a few years after the damage and deaths caused by the Afghan conquest had effectively destroyed the system by which Persia had been administered since the time of Shah 'Abbas (d. 1629). The greater part consists of lists of religious, military and civil officials with descriptions of their place in the system and their duties. There are also sections on the salaries and fees of the court officials and provincial troops and on the revenue and expenditure of the kingdom. While the MSS are anonymous, the work is now generally considered to be by the Safavid official Muhammad Sami' Isfahani. The British Library MS is reproduced in facsimile and Minorsky's translation and thorough commentary help to explain the intricacies of the text, with its abundance of bureaucratic terminology. Minorsky supplemented this with studies on aspects of the history of Safavid Persia which contribute to make his edition one of the fundamental works on Persia from the 16th to the 18th century.
