The Physics of Oscillations and Waves (1997)Hardcover - 1997, 30 June 1997

Before students can advance to the study of quantum mechanics, they must master a potential stumbling block - the physics of oscillations and waves. While many treatments of this mathematically complex subject leave students confused, Ingram Bloch's new test offers an especially accessible introduction that fully explains requisite mathematical techniques in the context of actual physical problems. A comprehensive work, The Physics of Oscillations and Waves also covers topics in mechanics and electricity to which similar mathematical methods are applicable and such nontraditional subjects as ladder networks and characteristic impedance, which are usually taught in engineering course.
