Pattern Formation in Liquid Crystals
Av L. Kramer, Agnes Buka m. fl.
Inbunden, 1996
1095 kr
Lägg i varukorg
In the last 20 years the study of nonlinear nonequilibrium phenomena in spa tially extended systems, with particular emphasis on pattern-forming phenomena, has been one of the very active areas in physics, exhibiting interesting ramifi cations into other sciences. During this time the study of …
Electrooptic Effects in Liquid Crystal Materials
Av L.M. Blinov, V.G. Chigrinov m. fl.
Häftad, 1996
1095 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Electrooptic effects provide the basis for much liquid-crystal display technology. This book, by two of the leaders in liquid-crystal research in Russia, presents a complete and accessible treatment of virtually all known phenomena occurring in liquid crystals under the influence of electric fields.
Spatio-Temporal Pattern Formation
With Examples from Physics, Chemistry, and Materials Science
Inbunden, 1996
551 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Spatio-temporal patterns appear almost everywhere in nature, and their description and understanding still raise important and basic questions. However, if one looks back 20 or 30 years, definite progress has been made in the modeling of insta bilities, analysis of the dynamics in their vicinity, …
Soft Matter Physics
An Introduction
Av Maurice Kleman, Oleg D. Laverntovich
Inbunden, 2002
3272 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Introductions to solid state physics have, ever since the initial book by F. Seitz in 1940, concentrated on simple crystals, with few atoms per cell, bonded together by strong ionic, covalent, or metallic bonds. References to weaker bonds, such as van der Waals forces in rare gases, or to geometric …
Solitons in Liquid Crystals
Av Lui Lam, Jacques Prost
Inbunden, 1991
1639 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Solitons are a well-known and intriguing aspect of nonlinear behavior in a continuous system such as a fluid: a wave propagates through the medium without distortion. Liquid crystals are highly ordered systems without a rigid, long-range structure. Solitons in liquid crystals (sometimes referred to …
Diffraction Optics of Complex-Structured Periodic Media
Inbunden, 1992
1639 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Probing matter with beams of photons, neutrons and electrons provides the main source of information about both the microscopic and macroscopic structure of materials. This is particularly true of media, such as crystals and liquid crystals, that have a periodic structure. This book discusses the …
Fluctuational Effects in the Dynamics of Liquid Crystals
Inbunden, 1993
1095 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Liquid crystals, widely used in displays for electronic equipment and other applications, have highly unusual properties arising from the anisotropy of their molecules. It appears that some aspects of the fluid dynamics of liquid crystals, such as their viscosity, can be understood only by …
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance of Liquid Crystals
Av Ronald Y. Dong, Ronald Y. Dong
Inbunden, 1997
877 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Intended for researchers and students in physics, chemistry and materials science, this work aims to provide the necessary background information and sufficient mathematical and physical detail to study research literature in nuclear magnetic resonance studies of liquid crystals. This second …
Sands, Powders, and Grains
An Introduction to the Physics of Granular Materials
Av Jacques Duran, J. G. Fujimoto
Inbunden, 1999
1204 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Granular materials can be found in an enormous variety of places: from the powders used to make vitamin pills to the rings of Saturn, from beaches to grain elevators, and from pottery clay to interstellar dust. This text covers the basic properties of uniform granular materials, the mixing and …
Chirality in Liquid Crystals
Av Heinz Kitzerow, Christian Bahr
Inbunden, 2000
2183 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Objects that differ from their mirror images, such as the left and right hands, play an important role in physics at all lengths scales, from elementary particles to macroscopic systems. The handedness, or chirality, of molecules in liquid crystals has a remarkable influence on the macroscopic …

Relaxation and Diffusion in Complex Systems
Av K.L. Ngai
Inbunden, 2011
2727 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Relaxation and diffusion are general and common phenomena in many branches of condensed matter physics, chemistry and materials sciences. In disordered and partially ordered systems the classes of materials include liquids, colloids, polymers, rubbers, plastic crystals, biomolecules, ceramics, …
