These are the proceedings of the fourth in a series of specialist international conferences on the microstructure of high temperature materials, held at Imperial College, London in September 1998. The papers address various aspects of the modelling of the microstructural evoluti…
This Handbook is designed to function as a selection tool for corrosion-inhibiting chemicals.
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have amazing properties and a key way to take advantage of this is by incorporating nanotubes into a matrix to build composite materials. The best candidates for this task are undoubtedly polymers. Almost every characteristic of a polymer can be significa…
In the last decade, gold nanoparticles have provided a suitable platform for the development of novel and efficient diagnostic and therapeutic tools, which avoid the typical drawbacks of the old systems. They are biocompatible and they can be easily synthesised, encapsulated and…
Nanoengineering: Global Approaches to Health and Safety Issues provides a global vision on the impact of engineered nanomaterials both for the consumer/general public and in occupational settings. The book also presents a hint on what can be expected for the future from nanomate…
In this path-breaking book, Sandra Hanson asks what compels so many talented young women to leave the professions of science and mathematics. When do they leave and why? Why do equally qualified girls and boys have such different experiences with science education? What are the …
A collection of essays by experts in the field, exploring how nature works to produce systems of increasing complexity from simple components, and how our understanding of this phenomenon of emergence can lead us to a deeper appreciation of both our humanity and our relationship…
