This is the first comprehensive book on information geometry, written by the founder of the field. An intuitive explanation of modern differential geometry then follows in Part II, although the book is for the most part understandable without modern differential geometry.

Basic properties of oscillatory integrals and the stationary phase method are explained in the book in detail.Those finite-dimensional integrals form a sequence of approximation of the Feynman path integral when the division goes finer and finer.

This book furnishes state-of-the-art knowledge about how earthquake faulting is coupled with fluid flow. Consequently, modeling study of earthquake faulting coupled with fluid flow is becoming increasingly active as a field of research.

This is the first book to systematically review and summarize the recent rapid advances and varied results of multiphysics in nanoscale materials including elastic strain engineering.

This book presents a comprehensive review of particle image velocimetry (PIV) and particle tracking velocimetry (PTV) as tools for experimental fluid dynamics (EFD).

This book is based on the author's work at the Double Chooz Experiment, from 2010 to 2013, the goal of which was to search for electronic anti-neutrino disappearance close to nuclear power plant facilities as a result of neutrino oscillation.

to professors, lecturers, and post-graduate students of technical universities, who are specializing in the field of electric machine engineering and electric drives; and to students who are engaged in the field of high current techniques, electric drives, and electric machine engineering.

In this book, the bases of imaging and diffraction in transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) are explained in the style of a textbook.

This book was written for orthopedic and plastic surgeons who wish to learn about reconstructive surgery of the extremities and trunk. However, orthopedic surgeons are generally not familiar with the reconstruction of soft tissue, and plastic surgeons have little experience with osseo-tendinous system reconstructions.

This second edition provides comprehensive information on electromagnetic acoustic transducers (EMATs), from the theory and physical principles of EMATs to the construction of systems and their applications to scientific and industrial ultrasonic measurements on materials.

This book serves as an ideal guide for engineers, researchers, and graduate students interested in signal analysis and its applications. Examples are taken from data on sound and vibration; however, the methods are universal and applicable to other areas.

This book is intended to provide a course of infrared spectroscopy for quantitative analysis, covering both bulk matter and surface/interface analyses.

In this thesis, ultimate sensitive measurement forweak force imposed on a suspended mirror is performed with the help of a laserand an optical cavity for the development of gravitational-wave detectors. One of thesources of quantum noise is the quantum back-action, which arises from thevacuum fluctuation of the light.

As an application of reaction chemistry, it provides chapters on tropospheric and stratospheric reaction chemistry, covering tropospheric ozone and photochemical oxidant formation, stratospheric ozone depletion and sulfur chemistry related to acid deposition and the stratospheric aerosol layer.

This book first describes medical devices in relation to regenerative medicine before turning to a more specific topic: artificial heart technologies. Design methods are described to enhance hemocompatibility: main concerns are reduction of blood cell damage and protein break, as well as prevention of blood clotting.

Combiningthe T2K e oscillation measurement with the latest findings on oscillationparameters including the world average value of 13 from reactor experiments,the constraint on the value of CP at the 90% confidence level is obtained.

This book develops new, original methods of welfare comparison and comparative dynamics between distinct and discretely positioned (rather than continuously related) socioeconomic situations.

This book focuses on the advances in transtibial prosthetic technology and targets research in the evolution of the powered prosthesis such as the BiOM, which was derived from considerable research and development at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

This hierarchy of methods is not a personal choice: it follows logically from tracking codes overloaded with a truncated power series algebra package.After defining abstractly and briefly what a tracking code is, the author illustrates most of the accelerator perturbation theory using an actual code: PTC.

This book is written in a style that uncovers the mathematical theories buried in our everyday lives such as examples from patterns that appear in nature, art, and traditional crafts, and in mathematical mechanisms in techniques used by architects.

In this thesis, the author develops new high-power millimeter wave techniques for measuring the hyperfine structure of positronium (Ps-HFS) directly for the first time in the world.

This volume provides fundamentals of nuclear thermal-hydraulics for reactor design and safety assessment. This book helps readers understand the processes for nuclear reactor plant design and the most important factors in nuclear thermal-hydraulics.

Based on recent advances in economics, especially those in behavioral economics, this book elucidates theoretically and empirically the mechanism of time-inconsistent decision making that leads to various forms of self-destructive behavior.

This book describes about 30 years of theoretical, empirical, and experimental work on butterfly sperm competition. Eupyrene and apyrene sperm dimorphism is most likely a key factor in sperm competition, and the study in butterflies promotes understanding of sexual selection across animal species with sperm polymorphism.

Molecular design of organic conductors and semiconductors is discussed from the standpoint of oxidation-reduction potentials, and after a brief survey of organic superconductors, various applications of organic semiconductor devices are described.
