On the road toward a history of turbulence, this book focuses on what the actors in this research field have identified as the 'turbulence problem'. Turbulent flow rose to prominence as one of the most persistent challenges in science. At different times and in different social and disciplinary settings, the nature of this problem has changed in response to changing research agendas. This book does not seek to provide a comprehensive account, but instead an exemplary exposition on the environments in which problems become the subjects of research agendas, with particular emphasis on the first half of the 20th century.

  • Turbulence-an Odyssey
    Michael Eckert
    Turbulence is a research field where high expectations have met with recurrent frustration. It is a common perception among physicists, mathematicians and engineers that there is a 'big mystery' behind the phenomenon of turbulence. Its history has also remained anything but well researched. Unlike topics such as quantum theory, which began to attract physics historians as long ...

  • Establishing Quantum Physics in Munich
    Michael Eckert
    This book traces the history of Arnold Sommerfeld’s famous 'nursery of theoretical physics' at the University of Munich and demonstrates the centrality of developing personal and institutional networks for the emergence of quantum theory. Sommerfeld, originally a mathematician with little interest in theoretical physics, was a somewhat unlikely choice for a chair of theoretical...

  • Arnold Sommerfeld
    Michael Eckert
    The subject of the book is a biography of the theoretical physicist Arnold Sommerfeld (1868-1951). Although Sommerfeld is famous as a quantum theorist for the elaboration of the semi-classical atomic theory (Bohr-Sommerfeld model, Sommerfeld’s fine-structure constant), his role in the history of modern physics is not confined to atoms and quanta. Sommerfeld left his mark in the...
