COTTERILL'S APPLIED MECHANICS [PDF]
Science, 1884 AMONG the many indications of the increasing interest which technical education, in its widest extent, now calls forth, one of the most conspicuous is the production of manuals and text-books on the various subjects with which it deals. Amongst these there is none which is more important than Applied Mechanics, and, at the same time, we may add that ...

The generalized Fenyes-Nelson model for free scalar field theory [PDF]
, 2002 The generalized Fenyes--Nelson model of quantum mechanics is applied to the free scalar field. The resulting Markov field is equivalent to the Euclidean Markov field with the times scaled by a common factor which depends on the diffusion parameter.
