The Concise Dictionary of English Etymology

By: Walter W. Skeat

Walter Skeat (1835-1912) was one of the greatest investigators of the roots of the English language, and his remarkable scholarship was instrumental in the revival of the great works of early English Literature. His astonishing detective work into the origins and development of the world's most widely used language provides an unsurpassed guide to its flexibility and richness.

Introduction to Technical Mathematics

With Problem Solving, Third Edition

By: Walter W. Leffin,George L. Henderson,Mary Van Beck Voelker,Fred C. Janusek

Designed for a first course in technical mathematics, this comprehensive, easy-to-read text is ideal for students with minimal mathematics training who wish to prepare for further study in technical areas. The newly revised Third Edition builds on the success of the first two editions, featuring a new chapter on using the quadratic formula to solve quadratic equations. Moreover, extra problem sets that feature technical applications have been added to several chapters. Introduction to Technical Mathematics, 3/E has a versatile format that can be used in many instructional settings. Its user-friendly approach includes problem-solving chapters designed to help students apply basic mathematical principles to a multitude of situations. Students also will benefit from the wealth of applications contained in the worked-out examples and problem sets.

Sound Transmission Through a Fluctuating Ocean

By: Roger Dashen,Walter H. Munk,Kenneth M. Watson

This 1979 book attempts to connect the known structure of the ocean volume with experimental results in long-range sound transmission through the theory of wave propagation and the path-integral approach. The book is written at the post-graduate level, but has been carefully organised to give experimenters a grasp of important results without undue mathematics.

Elastic Waves in the Earth

By: Walter L. Pilant

Elastic Waves in the Earth provides information on the relationship between seismology and geophysics and their general aspects. The book offers elastodynamic equations and derivative equations that can be used in the propagation of elastic waves. It also covers major topics in detail, such as the fundamentals of elastodynamics; the Lamb's problem, which includes the Cagniard-de Hoop theory; rays and modes in a radially inhomogeneous earth and in multilayered media, which includes the Thomson-Haskell theory; the elastic wave dissipation; the seismic source and noise; and the seismographs. The book consists of 33 chapters. The first 16 chapters include basic material related to the propagation of elastic waves. Topics covered by these chapters include scalars, vectors, and tensors in cartesian coordinates, stress and strain analysis, equations of elasticity and motion, plane waves, Rayleigh waves, plane-wave theory, and fluid-fluid and solid-solid interfaces. The second half of the book covers various ray and mode theories, elastic wave dissipation, and the observations and theories of seismic source and seismic noise. It concludes by discussing earthquake seismology and different seismographs, like the pendulum seismometer and the strain seismometer.
