AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the development of a machine that utilizes magnets and metal to produce alternating current (AC). The main challenge is ensuring the machine functions properly, which requires a solid understanding of electromagnetics and mechanics, including the mathematics involved. The individual seeks advanced engineering books that cover these topics in detail, specifically focusing on the interaction of magnets in a turbine and the calculations necessary for predicting turbine speed under various forces. Responses indicate that no single book encompasses all needed knowledge, suggesting that foundational math and physics concepts must be mastered first, particularly in classical mechanics and electromagnetism. The individual lists their current proficiency in various mathematical and physics topics, indicating a strong background but seeking guidance on a structured learning path to achieve their goal.

Hello,
I have been developping a kind of a machine that uses magnets and metal and things like that to produce an AC . But the probleme is that i cannot do it unless i am 100% sure it is going to work properly so i want an engineering book for electromagnetics with some mechanics also for the gears and so on. I want all the maths included and with good details so i can be precise about what magnets to use and how to vary the magnetic flux ( and considere that i am in last year of high school and have a really good level in physics and maths so please give me something advanced) for now the probleme with it is :
_i don't know the exact mesures
_i don't know how the magnets will interact (magnets here are in the turbine)
_and i don't know the maths for spinning a turbin and how to predict its speed after some forces apply to it (mostly because it is shaped as a fan)
Thanks

Sorry, there is no such book. You're going to have to learn the math separately first before you can tackle books like this. You'll probably also need to tackle Classical Mechanics in a separate book first.

I see
Could you give me a list of books that i can do 1 by 1 to arrive to my goal please
 
Tell us the math and physics you're comfortable with and at which level

Math:
_Exponential
_logarithmic equations ( Ln )
_fonctions ( derivative integral symetry ...)
_conics (parables ellipses ..)
_numerical sequences
_trigonometry ( including arcsin ...)
_irrational equations
Physics:
_Newton's laws of motion
_energy (mechanical .gravitational potential. kinetic .elastic potential)
_momentum ( linear and angular)
_oscillations
_ 4 pendulums
_ electromagnetic induction
And by the end of the year i will have done much much more but that's for now
 
TL;DR Summary: Book after Sakurai Modern Quantum Physics I am doing a comprehensive reading of sakurai and I have solved every problem from chapters I finished on my own, I will finish the book within 2 weeks and I want to delve into qft and other particle physics related topics, not from summaries but comprehensive books, I will start a graduate program related to cern in 3 months, I alreadily knew some qft but now I want to do it, hence do a good book with good problems in it first...
TLDR: is Blennow "Mathematical Methods for Physics and Engineering" a good follow-up to Altland "Mathematics for physicists"? Hello everybody, returning to physics after 30-something years, I felt the need to brush up my maths first. It took me 6 months and I'm currently more than half way through the Altland "Mathematics for physicists" book, covering the math for undergraduate studies at the right level of sophystication, most of which I howewer already knew (being an aerospace engineer)...
