Thermodynamics of Solutions
Springer 2009; US$ 179.99A collection of papers by the author dealing with the application of the Kirkwood-Buff (KB) theory of solutions to binary and multicomponent liquid mixtures. The KB theory of solution is one of the most powerful methods for analyzing such mixtures. more...
Dynamic and Transient Infinite Elements
Springer 2009; US$ 189.99Intends to provide the theory and the application of dynamic and transient infinite elements for simulating the far fields of infinite domains involved in many of scientific and engineering problems, based on the author's own work over the years. This title is suitable for computational geoscientists, geotechnical engineers, and civil engineers. more...
Thermodynamics in Earth and Planetary Sciences
Springer 2009; US$ 84.99Offers an exposition of a large spectrum of geological, geochemical and geophysical problems that are amenable to thermodynamic analysis. This book includes selected problems in planetary sciences, relationships between thermodynamics and microscopic properties, particle size effects, and some kinetic ramifications of entropy production. more...
The Stability of Matter in Quantum Mechanics
Cambridge University Press 2009; US$ 46.00Description of research on the subject for researchers, and for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in mathematical physics. more...
Finite Element Simulation of Heat Transfer
Wiley 2010; US$ 165.00This book introduces the finite element method applied to the resolution of industrial heat transfer problems. Starting from steady conduction, the method is gradually extended to transient regimes, to traditional non-linearities, and to convective phenomena. Coupled problems involving heat transfer are then presented. Three types of couplings are... more...
Electron Microscopy
Wiley 2008; US$ 292.00Derived from the successful three-volume Handbook of Microscopy, this book provides a broad survey of the physical fundamentals and principles of all modern techniques of electron microscopy. This reference work on the method most often used for the characterization of surfaces offers a competent comparison of the feasibilities of the latest developments... more...
Thermal Separation Processes
Wiley 2008; US$ 266.00This much-needed book presents a clear and very practice-oriented overview of thermal separation processes. An extensive introduction elucidates the physical and physicochemical fundamentals of different unit operations used to separate homogenous mixtures. This is followed by a concise text with numerous explanatory figures and tables referring to... more...
Surface Analysis with STM and AFM
Wiley 2008; US$ 193.00Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) are powerful tools for surface examination. In the past, many STM and AFM studies led to erroneous conclusions due to lack of proper theoretical considerations and of an understanding of how image patterns are affected by measurement conditions. For this book, two world experts,... more...
Plasma-Spray Coating
Wiley 2008; US$ 219.00Over the past two decades, thermal spraying of metallic, ceramic and composite coatings has emerged as a powerful tool for surface engineering, with many new applications and markets continually being developed. This book will help materials scientists and engineers to choose the most appropriate combination of materials, equipment, and operation parameters... more...
