Inorganic Reactions in WaterOrganized to facilitate reference to the reagents involved, this book describes the reactions of the elements and their mostly simpler compounds, primarily inorganic ones and primarily in water. It emphasizes the similarities and differences in actual chemical behavior, as opposed to electronic structures and theories, although not exclusively. Inorganic Reactions in Water again makes availa-ble some of the more comprehensive coverage of descriptive aqueous chemistry found in older sources, but now corrected and interpreted with the added insights of the last seven decades. It also provides new information, including reactions of the recently discovered elements, plus some recent data on equilibria, often with mostly qualitative kinetic information, to interpret the redox and non-redox phenomena that complicate the che-mistry of most elements in water.

Arc-Continent CollisionArc-continent collision has been one of the important tectonic processes in the formation of mountain belts throughout geological time, and it continues to be so today along tectonically active plate boundaries such as those in the SW Pacific or the Caribbean. Arc-continent collision is thought to have been one of the most important process involved in the growth of the continental crust over geological time, and may also play an important role in its recycling back into the mant-le via subduction. Understanding the geological processes that take place during arc-continent collision is therefore of importance for our un-derstanding of how collisional orogens evolve and how the continental crust grows or is destroyed.

Structures for Nuclear FacilitiesAnalysis, Design, and Construction

This book provides a general introduction to the topic of buildings for resistance to the effects of abnormal loadings. The structural design require-ments for nuclear facilities are very unique. In no other structural system are extreme loads such as tornadoes, missile and loud interaction, earth-quake effects typical in excess of any recorded historical data at a site, and postulated system accident at very low probability range explicitly, considered in design. It covers the whole spectrum of extreme load which has to be considered in the structural design of nuclear facilities and reactor buildings, the safety criteria, the structural design, the analysis of containment. Test case studies are given in a comprehensive treatment.

Physical Soil MechanicsSoil is matter in its own right. Its nature can be captured by means of monotonous, cyclic and strange attractors. Thus material properties are defined by the asymptotic response of sand- and clay-like samples to imposed deformations and stresses. This serves to validate and calibrate elas-toplastic and hypoplastic relations with compara-tive plots. Extensions capture thermal and seismic activations, limitations occur due to localizations and skeleton decay.Attractors in the large cha-racterize boundary value problems from model tests via geotechnical operations up to tectonic evolutions. Validations of hypoplastic calculations are shown with many examples, possible further applications are indicated in detail.

Material Properties under Intensive Dynamic LoadingIn collaboration with: W. W. Anderson, F. J. Cherne, M. A. Zocher

Understanding the physical and thermomecha-nical response of materials subjected to intensive dynamic loading is a challenge of great signifi-cance in engineering today. This volume assumes the task of gathering both experimental and diagnostic methods in one place, since not much information has been previously disseminated in the scientific literature. This book will thus be an invaluable companion for both the seasoned practitioner as well as for the novice entering the field of experimental shock physics.

Climate and Land DegradationIn many parts of the world, climatic variations are recognized as one of the major factors contribu-ting to land degradation impacting on agricul-tural systems performance and management. To accurately assess sustainable land management practices, the climate resources and the risk of climate-related or induced natural disasters in a region must be known. Only when climate resour-ces are paired with management or development practices can the land degradation potential be assessed and appropriate mitigation technologies be developed.

Light Scattering in Solids IXNovel Materials and Techniques

This is the ninth volume of a well-established series in which expert practitioners discuss topical aspects of light scattering in solids. It reviews recent developments concerning mainly semi-conductor nanostructures and inelastic x-ray scattering, including both coherent time-domain and spontaneous scattering studies. In the past few years, light scattering has become one of the most important research and characterization methods for studying carbon nanotubes and semiconduc-ting quantum dots, and a crucial tool for exploring the coupled exciton--photon system in semicon-ductor cavities.

Lateral Alignment of Epitaxial Quantum DotsAccurate positioning of self-organized nanostruc-tures on a substrate surface can be regarded as the Achilles’ heel of nanotechnology. This perception also applies to self-assembled semiconductor quantum dots. This book describes the full range of possible strategies to laterally align self-assembled quantum dots on a substrate surface, starting from pure self-ordering mechanisms and culminating with forced alignment by lithographic positioning. The text addresses both short- and long-range ordering phenomena and paves the way for the future high integration of single quan-tum dot devices on a single chip.

Voltage-Sensitive Ion ChannelsBiophysics of Molecular Excitability

Voltage-sensitive ion channels are macromolecules embedded in the membranes of nerve and muscle fibers of animals. Despite decades of intensive research under the traditional approach of gated structural pores, the relation between the structure of these molecules and their function remains enigmatic. This book examines physically oriented approaches not covered in other ion-channel books, and it develops a new physics-based ap-proach to the problem of molecular excitability.

Particle Image VelocimetryNew Developments and Recent Applications

Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) is a non-intru-sive optical measurement technique which allows capturing several thousand velocity vectors within large flow fields instantaneously. Today, the PIV technique has spread widely and differentiated into many distinct applications, from micro flows over combustion to supersonic flows for both in-dustrial needs and research. Over the past decade the measurement technique and the hard- and software have been improved continuously so that PIV has become a reliable and accurate method for „real life“ investigations.

Handbook of X-Ray DataThis sourcebook is intended as an X-ray data reference for scientists and engineers working in the field of energy or wavelength dispersive X-ray spectrometry and related fields of basic and ap-plied research, technology, or process and quality controlling. In a concise and informative manner, the most important data connected with the emission of characteristic X-ray lines are tabulated for all elements up to Z = 95 (Americium). This includes X-ray energies, emission rates and widths as well as level characteristics such as binding energies, fluorescence yields, level widths and absorption edges. The tabulated data are characte-rized and, in most cases, evaluated. Furthermore, all important processes and phenomena connec-ted with the production, emission and detection of characteristic X-rays are discussed.

International Handbook of Urban EducationIt is evident that urban education has become the central focus of educators at the present time. In the U.S., for example, almost one third of all school age children attend schools in large urban school districts. It is in these urban schools where the diversity of cultures and languages is highest and where student learning is most problematic. What has emerged from recent work to improve urban schools is the insight that there is no one-si-ze-fits-all panacea. Rather, we have discovered that the local context shapes, in critically important ways, what will be effective at the school level.

Logos of Phenomenology and Phenomenology of The Logos. Book FourThe Logos of Scientific Interrogation, Participating in Nature‑Life‑Sharing in Life

Prompted and ever diversified by the specifically human interrogative logos, scientific inquiries seek a common system of links in order to mutually confirm and rectify their results. Coming closer and closer to phenomenology, the sciences of life find the common ground of the reality in the ontopoiesis of life.
