Book Description
The chapters in this volume were presented at the July–August 2008 NATO Advanced Study Institute on Unexploded Ordnance Detection and Mitigation. The conference was held at the beautiful Il Ciocco resort near Lucca, in the glorious Tuscany region of northern Italy. For the ninth time we gathered at this idyllic spot to explore and extend the reciprocity between mathematics and engineering. The dynamic interaction between world-renowned scientists from the usually disparate communities of pure mathematicians and applied scientists which occurred at our eight previous ASI’s continued at this meeting. The detection and neutralization of unexploded ordnance (UXO) has been of major concern for very many decades; at least since the First World war. UXO continues to be the subject of intensive research in many ?elds of science, incl- ing mathematics, signal processing (mainly radar and sonar) and chemistry. While today’s headlines emphasize the mayhem resulting from the placement of imp- vised explosive devices (IEDs), humanitarian landmine clearing continues to draw signi?cant global attention as well. In many countries of the world, landmines threaten the population and hinder reconstruction and fast, ef?cient utilization of large areas of the mined land in the aftermath of military con?icts.

Banach Spaces and Their Applications in Analysis
Author: Beata Randrianantoanina
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter
ISBN: 9783110194494
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 472
Book Description
In recent years there has been a surge of profound new developments in various aspects of analysis whose connecting thread is the use of Banach space methods. Indeed, many problems seemingly far from the classical geometry of Banach spaces have been solved using Banach space techniques. This volume contains papers by participants of the conference "Banach Spaces and their Applications in Analysis", held in May 2006 at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, in honor of Nigel Kalton's 60th birthday. In addition to research articles contributed by participants, the volume includes invited expository articles by principal speakers of the conference, who are leaders in their areas. These articles present overviews of new developments in each of the conference's main areas of emphasis, namely nonlinear theory, isomorphic theory of Banach spaces including connections with combinatorics and set theory, algebraic and homological methods in Banach spaces, approximation theory and algorithms in Banach spaces. This volume also contains an expository article about the deep and broad mathematical work of Nigel Kalton, written by his long time collaborator, Gilles Godefroy. Godefroy's article, and in fact the entire volume, illustrates the power and versatility of applications of Banach space methods and underlying connections between seemingly distant areas of analysis.

Electronic Properties of Carbon Nanotubes
Author: Leroy Sidney
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781681172408
Category : Carbon nanotubes
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are tubular cylinders of carbon atoms that have extraordinary mechanical, electrical, thermal, optical and chemical properties. CNTs typically have diameters ranging from 1 nanometer (nm) up to 50 nma nanometer is one thousand millionth of a meter. Typical CNT lengths are several micronsseveral thousand nanometers long; by contrast, Nanocomp's produced fibers are measured in millimetersthousands of times longer than all other commercially produced CNTs. They take the form of cylindrical carbon molecules and have novel properties that make them potentially useful in a wide variety of applications in nanotechnology, electronics, optics and other fields of materials science. They exhibit extraordinary strength and unique electrical properties, and are efficient conductors of heat. In the powdery format offered by all CNT producers (but for NTI), applications are limited to the properties possible by this form factore.g. additive active ingredients in semiconductors, liquid crystal displays (LCDs), sensors, and other uses in which these powders add some level of functional performance. Due to its fiber length and its form factors, NTI delivers strength and conductivity unlike any other commercial CNT producer, and so can address a much broader array of applications for which its material rivals copper and aluminum in conductivity, and steel, aluminum, carbon fibers and glass composites where strength and lightweight matter. Carbon nanotubes have been a subject of exhaustive research for a wide range of applications. The purpose of this book entitled Properties of Carbon Nanotubes is to give in-depth understanding of the physics and electronic structure of carbon nanotubes. This book discusses fabrication techniques followed by an analysis on the physical properties of carbon nanotubes, including density of states and electronic structures. Eventually, the book follows a significant amount of work in the industry applications of carbon nanotubes.

Electro-rheological Fluids And Magneto-rheological Suspensions - Proceedings Of The 7th International Conference
Author: Rongjia Tao
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9814493414
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 872
Book Description
Electrorheological (ER) and magnetorheological (MR) fluids, which can be transformed from the liquid state into the solid state in milliseconds by applying an electric or a magnetic field, are smart fluids having the potential to revolutionize several industrial sectors. The Seventh International Conference on Electrorheological Fluids and Magnetorheological Suspensions took place at a time when some MR and ER applications were beginning to appear on the market, making a notable impact on industries. Scientists and engineers in multidisciplinary areas came together to explore the state-of-the-art technology and identify thrust areas to be focused on.This volume of proceedings collects contributions from most leading experts in the field. It reviews the most recent MR and ER applications, discusses the materials technology, explores the basic science research on ER and MR fluids, and examines the novel properties of these fluids. It provides the most up-to-date and probably the best information about the area. It can serve as a stimulating and valuable reference for research workers and students in materials science, condensed matter physics, engineering, and chemistry. The valuable information not only reports on the leading edge of research and applications, but also provides an overview of the field.
