1. Mechanical Engineering for Makers: A Hands-on Guide to Designing and Making Physical Things
Author: by Brian Bunnell
Make Community, LLC
English
232 pages
This practical, user-friendly reference book of common mechanical engineering concepts is geared toward makers who don’t have (or want) an engineering degree but need to know the essentials of basic mechanical elements to successfully accomplish their personal projects. The book provides practical mechanical engineering information (supplemented with the applicable math, science, physics, and engineering theory) without being boring like a typical textbook.
Most chapters contain at least one hands-on, fully illustrated, step-by-step project to demonstrate the topic being discussed and requires only common, inexpensive, easily sourced materials and tools. Some projects also provide alternative materials and tools and processes to align with the reader’s individual preferences, skills, tools, and materials-at-hand.
Linked together via the authors’ overarching project – building a kid-sized tank – the chapters describe the thinking behind each mechanism and then expands the discussions to similar mechanical concepts in other applications. Written with humor, a bit of irreverence, and entertaining personal insights and first-hand experiences, the book presents complex concepts in an uncomplicated way.
2. Modern Classical Physics: Optics, Fluids, Plasmas, Elasticity, Relativity, and Statistical Physics
Author: by Kip S. Thorne
English
1552 pages
0691159025
A groundbreaking text and reference book on twenty-first-century classical physics and its applicationsThis first-year graduate-level text and reference book covers the fundamental concepts and twenty-first-century applications of six major areas of classical physics that every masters- or PhD-level physicist should be exposed to, but often isn’t: statistical physics, optics (waves of all sorts), elastodynamics, fluid mechanics, plasma physics, and special and general relativity and cosmology.
Growing out of a full-year course that the eminent researchers Kip Thorne and Roger Blandford taught at Caltech for almost three decades, this book is designed to broaden the training of physicists. Its six main topical sections are also designed so they can be used in separate courses, and the book provides an invaluable reference for researchers.
Presents all the major fields of classical physics except three prerequisites: classical mechanics, electromagnetism, and elementary thermodynamicsElucidates the interconnections between diverse fields and explains their shared concepts and toolsFocuses on fundamental concepts and modern, real-world applicationsTakes applications from fundamental, experimental, and applied physics; astrophysics and cosmology; geophysics, oceanography, and meteorology; biophysics and chemical physics; engineering and optical science and technology; and information science and technologyEmphasizes the quantum roots of classical physics and how to use quantum techniques to elucidate classical concepts or simplify classical calculationsFeatures hundreds of color figures, some five hundred exercises, extensive cross-references, and a detailed indexAn online illustration package is available

11. LIFE – AS A MATTER OF FAT: Lipids in a Membrane Biophysics Perspective (The Frontiers Collection)
Author: by Ole G. Mouritsen
Springer
English
315 pages
The present book gives a multi-disciplinary perspective on the physics of life and the particular role played by lipids (fats) and the lipid-bilayer component of cell membranes. The emphasis is on the physical properties of lipid membranes seen as soft and molecularly structured interfaces.
By combining and synthesizing insights obtained from a variety of recent studies, an attempt is made to clarify what membrane structure is and how it can be quantitatively described. Furthermore, it is shown how biological function mediated by membranes is controlled by lipid membrane structure and organization on length scales ranging from the size of the individual molecule, across molecular assemblies of proteins and lipid domains in the range of nanometers, to the size of whole cells.
Applications of lipids in nanotechnology and biomedicine are also described. The first edition of the present book was published in 2005 when lipidomics was still very much an emerging science and lipids about to be recognized as being as important for life as proteins, sugars, and genes.
12. Liquids and Gases: Principles of Fluid Mechanics (Secrets of the Universe)
Author: by Paul Fleisher
English

Have you ever wondered why a 10-tonne boat floats but a tiny pebble sinks? Archimedes knew why. How does a basketball or tennis ball bounce? Robert Boyle could have described how! Can you explain why a hot-air balloon rises but a balloon you blow up drops to the ground?
To answer these questions and many more, author Paul Fleisher explains the laws that define how and why liquids and gases behave the way they do. Through simple experiments, detailed illustrations and concepts that are easy to understand, readers are introduced to the basic principles of fluid mechanics in a fun, exciting way.
This edition of Paul Fleisher’s Secrets of the Universe has been fully revised by the author and features all of the original illustrations by Patricia Keeler.

Springer
December 17, 2015
Theseproceedings primarily focus on advances in the theory, experiments, andnumerical simulations of turbulence in the contexts of flow-induced vibrationand noise, as well as their control. Fluid-related structural vibration andnoise problems are often encountered in many engineering fields, increasinglymaking them a cause for concern.
The FSSIC conference, held on 5-9 July 2015 inPerth, featured prominent keynote speakers such as John Kim, Nigel Peake, SongFu and Colin Hansen, as well as talks on a broad range of topics: turbulence,fluid-structure interaction, fluid-related noise and the control/managementaspects of these research areas, many of which are clearly interdisciplinary innature.
It provided a forum for academics, scientists and engineers working inall branches of Fluid-Structure-Sound Interactions and Control (FSSIC) toexchange and share the latest developments, ideas and advances, bringing themtogether researchers from East and West to push forward the frontiers of FSSIC,ensuring that the proceedings will be of interest to a broad engineeringcommunity.
