    Control your knowledge of feedback control

    Feedback dynamics is a topic that many engineers feel they should know. Feedback loops appear everywhere in engineering and science, and a command of feedback greatly increases one’s ability to design useful, robust machines. But it is also true that regardless of where you are in your engineering career, you have plenty of reason not […]

    Fine-Tuning in the Physical Universe

    We only have one universe. On the face of it, the existence of life, complexity, and structure in our universe seems to be lucky or to call out for explanation. When we look more closely, the physical causes of these important phenomena appear to be balanced on a knife-edge. Fine-Tuning in the Physical Universe formulates these questions and explores the answers in the context of many sub-disciplines of physics.

    Exploiting Seismic Waveforms: Correlation, Heterogeneity and Inversion

    Brian Kennett and Andreas Fichtner met when Brian was visiting the University of Munich from Australia on a Humboldt Research Award. They have since collaborated on a number of papers, mostly involving some aspect of seismic waveform inversion for the determination of structure. In the nearly twenty years since the publication of Brian’s two volume […]
