Interpreting Mach
A collection of new essays on Ernst Mach's scientific and philosophical thought by leading Mach scholars.
Ernst Mach
This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1972.
Ernst Mach’s World Elements
By exploring Mach's views on science as well as philosophy, this book attempts to wrest him free from his customary association with logical positivism and to reinterpret him on his own terms as a natural philosopher and naturalist about human knowledge. Physicists, psychologists, philosophers of science, historians of twentieth-century thought and culture, and educators will find this volume a valuable help in interpreting Mach's ideas.
Mach's Principle
This volume is a collection of scholarly articles on the Mach Principle, the impact that this theory has had since the end of the 19th century, and its role in helping Einstein formulate the doctrine of general relativity. 20th-century physics is concerned with the concepts of time, space, motion, inertia and gravity. The documentation on all of these makes this book a reference for those who are interested in the history of science and the theory of general relativity
Ernst Mach: Physicist and Philosopher
At the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in Washington, D.C., 27 December 1966, a symposium was held to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the death of Ernst Mach, the physicist who was vitally concerned about philosophical foundations. It was arranged by Section B on Physics, and co-sponsored by Section L on the History and Philosophy of Science, as well as by the History of Science Society. Dr. Allen W. Astin, Vice-President of the Association and Director of the National Bureau of Standards, presided. Representing the Austrian ambassador, Dr. Ernst Lemberger, a few opening remarks on his behalf were made by Dr. Walter Hietsch. Also present was Dr. ...
Mach 5 and Beyond
This book provides a comprehensive exploration of hypersonic technology, focusing on its growing significance in modern warfare. It is structured into five parts, each addressing a different aspect of hypersonic weapons. Part I lays the foundation, explaining the definition, types, and characteristics of hypersonic weapons, such as glide vehicles and cruise missiles. It covers the physics of hypersonic flight, the challenges posed by extreme speeds, and the materials needed to withstand such conditions. A detailed analysis of propulsion systems like scramjets and ramjets highlights future innovations in this field. In Part II, the book delves into the development and testing of hypersonic we...
