Looking for More Advanced Physics Problem Books?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on seeking additional resources for advanced physics problem-solving, specifically in mechanics, waves, oscillations, heat, and thermodynamics. The user mentions using "Problems In Physics" by Irodov and expresses interest in supplementary materials, highlighting the problem sets from Feynman's series and "Major American Universities PhD qualifying questions and solutions." They also recommend old Russian texts by Krotov and Sena for their quality in electromagnetism problems. Additionally, the user is struggling to find these books locally and is inquiring about potential sources for obtaining copies.

On Mechanics,Waves,Oscillations,Heat and Thermo etc etc.

I have been doing Problems In Physics by Irodov.

But i want some more.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Check out the problem sets accompanying Feynman's series
there ir a series of solved problems, called "Major American Unioversities PhD qualifying questions and solutions" that are pretty good. I have one called "Problems and Solutions on electromagnetism"
and REA's problems solvers
 
Use Krotov, Sena. Both are old Russian books...

I've been looking for a long time for these books, where I'm from it's impossible to find them on stores. Do you know where i can get a copy?
 

Thread 'WHAT IS A QUANTUM FIELD THEORY? A First Introduction for Mathematicians'

The book is fascinating. If your education includes a typical math degree curriculum, with Lebesgue integration, functional analysis, etc, it teaches QFT with only a passing acquaintance of ordinary QM you would get at HS. However, I would read Lenny Susskind's book on QM first. Purchased a copy straight away, but it will not arrive until the end of December; however, Scribd has a PDF I am now studying. The first part introduces distribution theory (and other related concepts), which...

Thread 'Books with a more theoretical approach to turbulence and DNS'

I've gone through the Standard turbulence textbooks such as Pope's Turbulent Flows and Wilcox' Turbulent modelling for CFD which mostly Covers RANS and the closure models. I want to jump more into DNS but most of the work i've been able to come across is too "practical" and not much explanation of the theory behind it. I wonder if there is a book that takes a theoretical approach to Turbulence starting from the full Navier Stokes Equations and developing from there, instead of jumping from...
