7 PREFACE Since the 'Introduction' to the main text gives an account of the way in which the problems treated in the following pages originated, this 'Preface' may be limited to an acknowledgement of the support the work has received. It started during the period when I was professor of aero- and hydrodynamics at the Technical University in Delft, Netherlands, and many discussions with colleagues ha ve in:fluenced its development. Oftheir names I mention here only that ofh. A. Kramers. Papers No ofthe list given at the end ofthe text were written during that period. Severa! ofthese were attempts to explore ideas which later had to be abandoned, but gradually a line of thought emerged which promised more definite results. This line began to come to the foreground in pa per No. 3 (1939}, while a preliminary formulation ofthe results was given in paper No. 12 (1954}. At that time, however, there still was missing a practica! method for manipulating a certain distribution function of central interest. A six months stay at the Hydrodynamics Laboratories ofthe California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, California ( }, was supported by a Contract with the Department of the Air F orce, N o. AF 33(038} A course of lectures was given during this period, which were published in typescript under the title 'On Turbulent Fluid Motion', as Report No. E-34.1, July 1951, of the Hydrodynamics Laboratory. Main progress carne after my return to Delft, when the Hopf-Cole transformation of the nonlinear equation into a linear one had opened a new way of attack. Since the end of 1955 until1971 the work was carried on at the Institute for Fluid Dynamics and Applied Mathematics ofthe University ofmaryland.lt was partially supported by the Air Force Oftice of Scientific Research, as a subject coming under Contracts AF-18(600}993, AF-49(638}401, F C-0023, and Grants AFOSR , AFOSR , AFOSR , and AFOSR For ali support and for the general interest of many colleagues, deep gratitude is expressed. At one stage ofthe work it was surmised that the integrals considered in Chapter VI below might be related to Wiener integrals. This was discussed in the beginning of 1963 with Dr F. Pollaczek, at that time a visitor at the Institute for Fluid Dynamics and Applied Mathematics; and also with Dr M. Kac of the Rockefeller University in New York. Dr Kac pointed out that an important property of Wiener integrals is that they lead to a partial differential equation, a subject which is treated in his book, Probability and Related Topics in Physical Sciences, Interscience Publishers, New York, 1959, Chapter IV, pp (in particular p. 171}.1t appeared that the corresponding differential equation for my case [Equation (28.3} below] could be obtained
8 X PREFACE by a direct transformation ofthe original equation, so that there was no need to give further attention to Wiener integrals. This is developed in Chapters V and VI of the monograph. It furnished the hasis for the evaluation of ali integrals connected with the central distribution function. The results of the calculations ha ve led to definite numbers, without adjustable constants. Numerica! calculations sometimes were desirable in order to obtain certain transcendental numbers. Mr Y.-K. Hsu and Mr S.-K. Oh gave help with the calcu Iation ofthe coefficients ofthe series (21.3) for the function <f; (z) and for the evaluation of E(O) according to Equation (23.7).- Mr David Wilson made calculations for the numbers m 1 (Equation (38.17a)) and m 3 (Equation (38.17b)). Special gratitude is due to the secretaries who have typed out, often repeatedly, the extensive manuscript notes with their long and complicated equations. I mention in particular Miss Helga Lincke for her work in ; and Mrs Irene Huvos for the still more extensive!ater work and her never ending patience, during the years To Professor Bruce Kellogg of the Institute I am indebted for much he1p and care given when the Institute decided to distribute the typewritten text as No. 52 of the Institute's 'Lecture Series', in November I consider it a great honor that D. Reidel Publishing Company in Dordrecht, The Netherlands, has decided to publish this monograph in the form of a book. I am well aware that the method followed here in treating asymptotic solutions of the non1inear diffusion equation and their statistics is a specialized one. Many approaches have been explored by a variety of authors starting from other points of view. It is impossib1e to extend the present monograph in such a way that an adequate digest of the existing literature can be given. This has therefore been left aside. A survey of published so1utions until 1972 has been presented by E. R. Benton and G. W. Platzmann; see the reference in footnote* at the beginning of Chapter 1. New papers are continually forthcoming. A final remark: whi1e great care has been taken to check the numerous equations by comparing them with the original material, a full guarantee against misprints cannot be given and the clemency of the reader is invoked.
