Unified Field Theory for the Engineer and the Applied Scientist by Larry Silverberg

Unified Field Theory for the Engineer and the Applied Scientist documents an investigation aimed at translating field dynamics into a language that allows it to be further transferred from the differential geometrician to the wider scientific community. It features 40 end-of-chapter problems to improve interdisciplinary problem-solving in engineering and applied sciences.
The term field dynamics refers to the branch of physics that deals with objects and phenomena large enough to be measured and observed and is developed from four-dimensional geometry. Research that was once a major interest within theoretical physics has since passed to differential geometry, where it now has a strong mathematical foundation in hyper-dimensional field theories.
In this monograph Dr. Silverberg illustrates that modern field theory is an equally valuable tool for engineers and applied scientists when the unsolved problems become increasingly cross disciplinary.

Dr. Larry Silverberg is Associate Head & Director of Undergraduate Programs for the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at NC State University. The focus of his research is on studying and developing tools to describe the interaction between electrical and mechanical forces and to organize the tools into principles and techniques for solving problems. The goal of the formulation is to handle continuum problems, particle problems, and hybrid continuum/particle problems. He has also written Marks’ Mechanics Problem-Solving Companion and Basic Experiments in PID Control for Engineers and edited Dynamics and Control of Multibody/Robotic Systems with Space Applications.
