Eddy Arnold

Autor: Michael Streissguth

Número de Páginas: 345

?Fans of Arnold's mellow music will appreciate the intensely detailed record of his private life and public career. Others may find the vivid picture of country music's early decades (the many small-town radio stations and deejays that supported the music, the backroads tours, the struggling record labels) quite intriguing.? ? Kirkus Reviews. Illustrated with fifty-four photographs and featuring a comprehensive discography and sessionography, this book traces Eddy Arnold's origins from a cotton farm in western Tennessee to his legendary status in the world of country music. Michael Streissguth covers Arnold's success as a top-selling artist in the 1940s and 1950s and his temporary wane as listeners gravitated toward the rock & roll sound, embodied by newcomer Elvis Presley. Arnold (1918?2008) kept recording, however, and working on his craft. By the mid-60s, he reemerged as a pop crooner with his hit song ?Make the World Go Away.? His blend of country sentiments and pop stylings created the template for Nashville's modern country music sound. Throughout his career he was a major concert attraction and a radio and television star. Few other figures can claim to have had as great an ...

The Life of Mary Baker G. Eddy and the History of Christian Science

Autor: Willa Cather

Número de Páginas: 572

This controversial biography of the founder of the Christian Science church was serialized in McClure's Magazine in 1907-8 and published as a book the next year. It disappeared almost overnight and has been difficult to find ever since. Although a Canadian mewspaperwoman named Georgine Milmine collected the material and was credited as the author, The Life Of Mary Baker G. Eddy was actually written by Willa Cather, an editor at McClure's at that time. In his introduction to this Bison Book edition, David Stouck reveals new evidence of Cather's authorship of The Life of Mary Baker G. Eddy. He discusses her fidelity to facts and her concern with psychology and philosophy that would take creative form later on. Indeed, this biography contains "some of the finest portrait sketches and reflections on human nature that Willa Cather would ever write."

Mathematical Principle and Fractal Analysis of Mesoscale Eddy

Autor: Shu-tang Liu , Yu-pin Wang , Zhi-min Bi , Yin Wang

Número de Páginas: 260

This book focuses on universal nonlinear dynamics model of mesoscale eddies. The results of this book are not only the direct-type applications of pure mathematical limit cycle theory and fractal theory in practice but also the classic combination of nonlinear dynamic systems in mathematics and the physical oceanography. The universal model and experimental verification not only verify the relevant results that are obtained by Euler's form but also, more importantly, are consistent with observational numerical statistics. Due to the universality of the model, the consequences of the system are richer and more complete. The comprehensive and systematic mathematical modeling of mesoscale eddies is one of the major features of the book, which is particularly suited for readers who are interested to learn fractal analysis and prediction in physical oceanography. The book benefits researchers, engineers, and graduate students in the fields of mesoscale eddies, fractal, chaos, and other applications, etc.

Número de Páginas: 442

The second Workshop on "Quality and Reliability of Large-Eddy Simulations", QLES2009, was held at the University of Pisa from September 9 to September 11, 2009. Its predecessor, QLES2007, was organized in 2007 in Leuven (Belgium). The focus of QLES2009 was on issues related to predicting, assessing and assuring the quality of LES. The main goal of QLES2009 was to enhance the knowledge on error sources and on their interaction in LES and to devise criteria for the prediction and optimization of simulation quality, by bringing together mathematicians, physicists and engineers and providing a platform specifically addressing these aspects for LES. Contributions were made by leading experts in the field. The present book contains the written contributions to QLES2009 and is divided into three parts, which reflect the main topics addressed at the workshop: (i) SGS modeling and discretization errors; (ii) Assessment and reduction of computational errors; (iii) Mathematical analysis and foundation for SGS modeling.

Mathematics of Large Eddy Simulation of Turbulent Flows

Autor: Luigi Carlo Berselli , Traian Iliescu , William J. Layton

Número de Páginas: 357

Large eddy simulation (LES) is a method of scientific computation seeking to predict the dynamics of organized structures in turbulent flows by approximating local, spatial averages of the flow. Since its birth in 1970, LES has undergone an explosive development and has matured into a highly-developed computational technology. It uses the tools of turbulence theory and the experience gained from practical computation. This book focuses on the mathematical foundations of LES and its models and provides a connection between the powerful tools of applied mathematics, partial differential equations and LES. Thus, it is concerned with fundamental aspects not treated so deeply in the other books in the field, aspects such as well-posedness of the models, their energy balance and the connection to the Leray theory of weak solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations. The authors give a mathematically informed and detailed treatment of an interesting selection of models, focusing on issues connected with understanding and expanding the correctness and universality of LES. This volume offers a useful entry point into the field for PhD students in applied mathematics, computational mathematics...
