This series of books focuses on the internal wave hydrodynamic effects on submersibles. As the first book in the series, it specifically studies the patterns and mechanisms of interaction between internal waves and submersibles. Internal waves are widely-present in the stratified ocean and are a type of nonlinear, large-amplitude wave phenomenon. Submersibles are highly likely to encounter internal waves during underwater operations, which can severely affect the stability and hydrodynamic...

This pathbreaking study provides the first comprehensive examination of India-China interactions in the broader contexts of Asian and world history. By focusing on material exchanges, transmissions of knowledge and technologies, networks of exchange during the colonial period, and little-known facets of interactions between the Republic of India and the People’s Republic of China, Tansen Sen argues convincingly that the analysis of India-China connections must extend beyond the traditional...
