Equilibrium states in negative curvature
by Paulin, Frédéric, Pollicott, Mark, Schapira, Barbara
fromAstérisque
With their origin in thermodynamics and symbolic dynamics, Gibbs measures are crucial tools to study the ergodic theory of the geodesic flow on negatively curved manifolds. We develop a framework (through Patterson-Sullivan densities) allowing us to get rid of compactness assump…

High Voltage Engineering and Applications
"Breaking down the information into easy, manageable chunks, Super Simple Physics covers everything from atoms to astronomy and from forces to flotation. Each topic is fully illustrated to support the information, make the facts crystal clear, and bring the science to life."--
The new edition of this popular textbook provides a fundamental approach to phase transformations and thermodynamics of materials, emphasising explanations at the level of atoms and electrons. Fully revised and updated, and including over 170 end-of-chapter problems, it is a val…
A reversible solid oxide fuel cell (RSOFC) system could buffer intermittent electrical generation, e.g. wind, wave power by storing electrical energy as hydrogen and heat. RSOFC were fabricated by thermoplastic extrusion of (La₀.₈Sr₀.₂)₀.₉₅MnO[subscript(3−δ)] (LSM) ceramic suppo…
