The book offers a didactically elaborated introduction to theoretical fluid mechanics and provides insights into the diversity of its applications in nature and technology. The focus is on aerodynamics for lower flight speeds, which continues to be of high practical value.
In the derivations, emphasis is placed on illustrating the corresponding terms and relationships. The text is primarily aimed at students of university colleges in the mathematical-scientific field who are seeking a bridge to engineering applications. At the same time, it should be useful for engineers who are interested in the derivation of the formulas and backgrounds.
For better comprehensibility, numerous intermediate steps in calculations, which are usually left to the reader, are formulated as problems that are fully recalculated in the solution part. This keeps the presentation useful for both beginners and more experienced readers.

<li>Bridges the gap between theoretical mathematics and application

</li><li>Explains and illustrates the basic terms in detail

</li><li>Provides detailed calculation steps in the solution part



 
The translation of this book was done with the help of artificial intelligence. A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content.

A critical look at our modeling techniques, and what idealized modeling can tell us, if anything, about the mind and brain. In The Idealized Brain, Michael Kirchhoff explores the challenges of using idealized modeling in computational neuroscience. The book spans work on neural coding, deep learning, machine learning, AI, philosophy of cognitive science, and philosophy of science. The author addresses many of the epistemic uses and harms of idealization across multiple scales and paradigms—from early biophysical models, information theory, neural coding, and deep convolutional neural networks to explainable AI—highlighting connections that should have far-reaching consequences for both philosophy of cognitive science, methodology in computational neuroscience, and how we communicate the results of our research. Kirchhoff argues that we need to place approximation methods such as idealization at the heart of our discussions in computational neuroscience, philosophy of neuroscience, philosophy of cognitive science, and philosophy of mind. Only then can we make progress to ensure that our interpretations of computational modeling of the mind and brain are robust and on a secure epistemic and metaphysical footing.

Is your company moving as fast as you think it is? Most organizations aren't--and it's costing them.Many executives would argue that their companies are moving with speed. But new research reveals the opposite. As speed becomes more critical to survival in today's unpredictable world, most companies are actually getting slower, held back by processes, technologies, and structures that once made them successful.This perception-execution gap around speed can make or break companies--yet most leaders don't know how to set their organizations up for success. In The High-Velocity Organization, Suketu Gandhi, chair of the global strategic operations practice at Kearney, offers a practical solution. By combining speed of insights, decisions, and actions, leaders can increase their velocity exponentially across the organization. Gandhi introduces a five-part framework for operationalizing intelligent speed at scale: <ul><li>Build enterprise sensing capabilities that enable a company to perceive opportunities and threats.</li><li>Break down silos to enable organizational adaptability.</li><li>Empower agile teams by encouraging decision-making and fostering collaboration.</li><li>Scale with intelligent automation to distribute insights, increase efficiency, expand capacity, and support decentralized execution at scale.</li><li>Measure what matters using new metrics that determine true competitive speed in an accelerated marketplace.</li></ul>Based on proprietary research and filled with detailed examples, The High-Velocity Organization explores the architecture, technology, and leadership needed to put speed at the heart of strategy and execution so that your company can stay adaptable while moving forward--fast.

In his prize-winning Sunday Times bestseller, An Immense World, Ed Yong invited us to perceive the world through other animals' senses. Now he transforms our view of the world once again by revealing the hidden wonders of life at different scales.'Utterly extraordinary. Yong's spectacular new book is not just a mesmerizing examination of the wonders of life on Earth; it's no less than a biography of life itself' EMILY ST JOHN MANDEL'A thrilling journey of discovery ... Dazzling, refreshing, brilliant' ROBIN WALL KIMMERERAll around us, just beyond our awareness, life proceeds in astonishing ways. The 100-ton blue whale easily crosses oceans, singing to fellow whales thousands of miles away. Alongside it a bacterium swims in a drop of seawater that is as vast for it as an ocean is to the whale. Hummingbirds move too quickly for us to follow, while plants move too languorously for us to perceive.Every living thing operates at its own scale - the blend of size, range, pace, longevity, and influence that define the contours and rhythms of a life. We tend to think of the human scale as life's default. But in Life Beyond Measure, Ed Yong coaxes us outside of our medium-sized, medium-lived, medium-paced, moderately mobile range and introduces us to entirely new worlds, some that could fit between two grains of sand. Fireflies assembling their luminous chorus; a bristlecone pine that's older than paper rounds the corner of its fifth millennium; shorebirds that fly across the world's biggest ocean without stopping; Pando, a forest that may be a single tree; and a host of other dazzling, disorienting entities expand our understanding of what life can be.Mind-bending, exhilarating, and profound, Life Beyond Measure is a call to cast off our human perspective, to lose ourselves in the vastness and strangeness of nature, and by doing so, to discover how intimately connected to the rest of life we are.

Life Beyond Measure

How AI can positively impact so many aspects of our daily lives, from health and wellness to work, education, and home life. Artificial intelligence (AI) is a powerful general-purpose technology that is reshaping the modern economy, but misperceptions about AI stand in the way of harnessing it for the betterment of humanity. In Thrive, Ravi Bapna and Anindya Ghose counter the backlash by showcasing how AI is positively influencing the aspects of our daily lives that we care about most: our health and wellness, relationships, education, the workplace, and domestic life. In the process the authors help explain the underlying technology and give people the agency they need to shape the debate around how we should regulate AI to maximize its benefits and minimize its risks.

Why The Stack—an accidental megastructure—is both a technological apparatus and the geopolitical model of our times. A tenth anniversary edition of the comprehensive political philosophy of planetary-scale computation, with a new preface from the author. What has planetary-scale computation done to our geopolitical realities? It takes different forms at different scales—from energy and mineral sourcing and subterranean cloud infrastructure to urban software and massive universal addressing systems; from interfaces drawn by the augmentation of the hand and eye to users identified by self-quantification and the arrival of legions of sensors, algorithms, and robots. Together, how do these distort and deform modern political geographies and produce new territories in their own image? In an account that is both theoretical and technical, drawing on political philosophy, design theory, and computer science, Bratton explores six layers of The Stack: Earth, Cloud, City, Address, Interface, User.

The Stack, 10th anniversary edition with new preface by the author

A collection of eye-opening natural experiments, showing how economists uncover cause-and-effect relationships and reveal insights about our world. Does having a daughter change how a congressperson votes? How did a nineteenth-century doctor help discover germs? Is it better to go first or second in a penalty shootout? Why don’t diplomats pay their parking tickets? Do leaders really matter? These are all questions economists ask. Some of these questions are serious, others less consequential. But all are interesting—and can be answered by way of the natural experiment. A natural experiment is an event in the real world that neatly divides people into a treatment group and a control group—and it is one of the greatest tools in the economist’s toolkit. In Daughters, Diplomats, and Death, Patrick Gourley discusses why and how economists have leveraged this powerful method to answer questions that were long thought unanswerable. In the vein of Freakonomics, Nudge, and The Tipping Point, the book takes the reader on a lively and engaging tour of some of the most fascinating natural experiments, explaining how they work, how they help social scientists answer questions, and what conclusions they reached. The experiments illuminate a wide range of timely issues in health, education, reproductive issues, and the environment, lending rich and much-needed nuance to the complex debates that shape today’s headlines.
