In Honor of Philip M. Morse
When Philip Morse was promoted to Professor Emeritus of Physics at M.I.T. in 1969, he already had behind him at least three full professional careers--in Quantum physics, in acoustics, and in what Julius Stratton calls "the reduction of theory to numerically useful results," a general field of which Morse was a founder and for which no good term yet exists, that includes operations research, machine computation, and systems analysis. This volume contains papers in all these fields, written by Professor Morse's students and colleagues. By their presence here, they gratefully testify to the influence that Philip Morse has had on their work and, in many cases, on their lives.

Vibration and Sound
None
Theoretical Acoustics
This volume, available for the first time in paperback, is a standard work on the physical aspects of acoustics. Starting from first principles, the authors have successfully produced a unified and thorough treatment of the subjects of generation, propagation, absorption, reflection, and scattering of compressional waves in fluids, progressing to such topics as moving sound sources, turbulence, and wave-induced vibration of structures. Material is included on viscous and thermal effects, on the acoustics of moving media, on plasma acoustics, on nonlinear effects, and on the interaction between light and sound. Problems, with answers in many cases, are given at the end of each chapter. They contain extensions to further applications, thus enhancing the reference value of the book. Many of the examples worked out in the text and in the problem solutions were not previously published. Anyone familiar with calculus and vector analysis should be able to understand the mathematical techniques used here.
Methods of Operations Research
Operations research originated during World War II with the military's need for a scientific method of providing executives with a quantitative decision-making basis. This text explores strategical kinematics, tactical analysis, gunnery and bombardment problems, more.
Queues, Inventories and Maintenance
A seminal work by one of the founders of the science of operations research, this text for upper-level undergraduates and graduate students examines general queuing problems, discusses the effect of changes of arrival and service distributions on queuing results, and describes the application of queuing theory to maintenance and inventory problems.
