Physics of Materials

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Quere, Yves / Quere, Y. / Quere, Quere, PUBLISHER: CRC Press, Few areas of science are as interdisciplinary as materials science. Chemistry, physics, mechanical engineering, and mathematics each play a part within it. The role of physics is to describe the objects, effects and phenomena at different scales (micro-, meso-, and macroscopic) as precisely as possible. Physics of Materials addresses this description at the elementary level. Based on an undergraduate level course taught at the Ecole Polytechnique, France, the main emphasis is on the conduction related phenomena (electronic properties) and the plastic behavior (ionic properties) of materials, such as metals and alloys, semiconductors, and ceramics. It assumes a basic grounding in statistical physics, quantum mechanics and elasticity but does not require prior knowledge of solid-state physics, to which it will serve as a useful introduction. The presentation of the course is followed by several examination problems, with solutions, which cover various specific applications of the general concepts and which will enable readers to test their understanding of these concepts.

Meteorology

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Eric Danielson, James Levin, Elliot Abrams, PUBLISHER: McGraw-Hill Science/Engineering/Math, "Meteorology, 2/e is an introduction to atmospheric science for science and non-science majors, covering all topics expected of an introductory text and organized and presented in a way that offers the instructor considerable flexibility regarding topic sequence. The text follows a unique investigative approach intended to teach the scientific method as well as meteorology. The authors have written the text to encourage this approach to learning: they pose numerous questions to the student, develop ideas bottom-up rather than explain phenomena from general principles, and attempt to assist each student in constructing his or her own map of meteorology.

Materials Production in Open and Distance Learning

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Lockwood, Fred, PUBLISHER: Paul Chapman Publishing, The process of materials production in open and distance learning is seen both as a daunting prospect and as an exciting opportunity. This book is intended to dispel some of the apprehension and yet temper some of the enthusiasm. The chapters are grouped into three accepted stages of materials production - planning, production and presentation - with each chapter having an underlying theme: the desire to produce materials of the highest academic and technical quality that are also the most effective teaching materials for its learners. The authors, many with national and international reputations, focus on those facets of open and distance learning which reflect current thinking, research and practice. This book will provide educators and trainers with insight into materials production and with an essential foundation upon which to build their own work.

Weird Science: A Conflatation of Art and Science

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hofmann, Irene / Grabner, Michelle / Wittkopp, Gregory, PUBLISHER: Cranbrook Art Museum, Art meets science -- and engages the recent controversies of science studies -- in work by contemporary artists Mark Dion, Gregory Green, Margaret Honda, and Andrea Zittel. Using scientific language, strategies and protocols, each of these projects focuses on a different area of exploration (natural science, nuclear physics, zoology, and genetic engineering), and investigates the influence, authority, and effects of science. David Wilson, Director of the Museum of Jurassic Technology, writes on the 17th century scholar, inventor, curator, and early progenitor of 'weird science', Athanasius Kircher; exhibition curator Irene Hofmann places these works into the context of each artist's career.

Numerical Computation in Science and Engineering

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Pozrikidis, C., PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, Designed for non-expert students and researchers, this text provides an accessible introduction to scientific numerical computation and its applications. It assumes no prior knowledge beyond undergraduate calculus and elementary computer programming. Fundamental and practical issues are discussed in a unified manner with a generous, but not excessive, dose of numerical analysis. The topics are introduced on a need to know basis in order to concisely illustrate the practical implementation of a variety of algorithms and to demystify seemingly esoteric numerical methods. Algorithms that can be explained without too much elaboration and implemented within a few dozen lines of computer code are discussed in detail; those whose underlying theories require long, elaborate explanations are discussed at the level of first principles, and references for further information are given. The book uses schematic illustrations to demonstrate concepts and facilitate understanding by providing readers with a helpful interplay between ideas and visual images. Real-world examples, drawn from various branches of science and engineering, are presented in those cases where it would be difficult for readers to produce their own. The text is further enhanced by an accompanying library of FORTRAN programs, freely available on the World Wide Web at http://www-ames.ucsd.edu/research/pozrikidis/ncse. Drawing a direct connection between numerical analysis and numerical computation, Numerical Computation in Science and Engineering serves as an ideal text for courses in numerical methods and as a supplement in any course involving numerical computation, including fluid mechanics, solid mechanics, control theory, and thermodynamics.

Design and Control of Structure of Advanced Carbon Materials

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Rand, Brian / Appleyard, Stephen P. / Yardim, M. Ferhat, PUBLISHER: Springer, The review of carbon materials here presented regards them as forming a continuous spectrum, varying in crystallinity and nano?, micro? and macro?texture. The structure?property relationships are discussed to examine how they can be controlled during different processing operations. Processing routes are described to see how they might be varied, modified or invented to meet he needs for new applications. The following key questions are debated: What is intrinsically possible with carbon materials? How do we convert what is intrinsically possible into an engineering product that enhances our quality of life? How do we design and produce materials to satisfy the visions of the engineer?
