Ultrasonics is a multidisciplinary subject with applications in many of the basic sciences. Most of the existing texts on this subject are very specialized and often too advanced to be of use to those not in that exact specialty. Accessible to a wide readership, Fundamentals and Applications of Ultrasonic Waves provides a treatment that is rigorous yet not overly specialized. It presents clear exposition on the physics of acoustic waves, their propagation, transmission and reflection, and the different modes that can be excited in various geometries. The author examines the engineering aspects of those geometries and explores the sundry methods of generation and detection.
Any successful application of ultrasonics must be related in a practical way to some acoustic property or properties of the media being irradiated ulstrasonically. Evaluating the practicality of new ideas, this book includes data and functions gathered from several areas of science and technology for the purpose of facilitating the use of ultrasonic energy. It presents data important for the design of ultrasonic systems that meet the needs of present and new developments, including applications in both standard and harsh environments. The authors provide a quick reference to pertinent regulations dealing with solvents, allowable exposure levels of intensity and time, and electromagnetic limitations.

Harmonic Analysis and Applications John J. Benedetto
Yulii D. Shikhmurzaev
University of Maryland, College Park, USA
University of Birmingham, UK
Series: Studies in Advanced Mathematics
This self-contained book explores various theoretical problems that arise in the mathematical description of capillary flows, such as the spreading of liquids on solids and the formation of drops, where conventional modeling leads to nonphysical singularities. It examines the advantages and disadvantages of theoretical approaches to modeling singular flows and identifies a common physical mechanism behind seemingly different singular capillary phenomena. This unifying approach forms the basis for simple, ready-to-use, experimentally verified models along with many solutions that illustrate the models’ application to problems of practical importance.
Harmonic analysis plays an essential role in understanding a host of engineering, mathematical, and scientific ideas. Harmonic Analysis and Applications presents the analysis and synthesis of functions in terms of harmonics in a way that clearly demonstrates the vitality, power, elegance, and usefulness of the subject. It covers the Fourier analysis of integrable and square integrable functions on R, distribution theory, and Fourier series, including the Fourier analysis of finite and infinite sequences, as well as functions defined on finite intervals. Ideal as a text for upper-level undergraduates, the book includes enough advanced material to also serve as a graduatelevel text and reference.

Black Holes, Wormholes & Time Machines Jim Al-Khalili
An Introduction to the Physics of Interstellar Dust Endrik Krugel
Max-Planck-Institut für Radioastronomie, Bonn, Germany
University of Surrey, UK
Series: Astronomy and Astrophysics
With two remarkable ideas, Albert Einstein revolutionized our view of the universe. First, nothing can travel faster than light and second, spacetime is warped and stretched by gravity. Despite these contributions, he could not have envisioned the twisting of spacetime: time-travel. Theoretical physicist Jim Al-Khalili finally lays science fiction to rest as he opens up Einstein’s universe. Leading us gently and light-heartedly through the dizzying world of our space and time, he gives us the recipe for a time machine, capable of taking us Back to the Future, to Alice’s Wonderland, or on a trip with the Terminator.
This text provides a concise overview of interstellar dust and the interstellar medium. Emphasizing and explaining astronomical formulae, it addresses the absorption and scattering of dust, its creation in old stars, as well as emission, cohesion, and electrical charge. The book presents numerous figures displaying basic properties of dust, such as optical constants, specific heat, and absorption and scattering coefficients. It introduces radiative transfer in a dusty medium and describes the use of transfer codes. With strong attention to detail, the author facilitates a complete understanding from which to build a more versatile application and manipulation of the information. A solutions manual is available for qualifying instructors.

Understanding galaxy formation and evolution is one of the major goals of physical cosmology. In particular, the collapse of the first stars and pregalactic systems may set the conditions for the formation of the most exotic objects in the universe—supermassive black holes. Relics of extraordinary energetic events that occurred when the universe was younger, these supermassive black holes influence the environment they inhabit, and their masses link tightly with properties of their hosting galaxy. This book, arising from a SIGRAV School, focuses on observational and theoretical aspects of the research in this field at a level suitable for graduate students and beginning researchers.
A comprehensive, mathematically detailed book on classical celestial mechanics, this edition updates all chapters and incorporates a new chapter that provides the first textbook treatment of the Caledonian symmetrical n-body problem. The book’s contents have been reorganized and extended to encompass new methods and teaching demands and to cover more modern applied areas, such as satellite dynamics. A long-established text in the physics and astronomy fields, this edition extends its coverage to meet the needs in the areas of aerospace engineering and planetary science, which now need to cover this material in more detail.

Assuming an elementary knowledge of quantum and statistical physics, this second edition forms a comprehensive guide to the principal physical properties of condensed matter. While covering all the basic concepts, this treatment limits the theoretical demands made upon readers, uses simple models that still reflect the behavior of real substances, and connects readers with aspects of presentday research. This edition includes a section on the structure of atomic clusters, puts more emphasis on the dielectric function for the cooperative interaction of electrons in metals, and augments the material on metallic behavior with a description of the electronic structure of alloys.
This book covers a number of stochastic models and methods useful in the mechanics of random media. It presents basic coverage of random fields and geometry for readers unacquainted with this area and introduces the general field of statistical continuum mechanics. The author provides thorough coverage—more than any other book—of random fields and processes for materials modeling, lattice models, classical planar and micropolar elasticity, as well as waves and mesoscale bounds in elastic and inelastic random media. The book also includes applications from engineering and science to promote active research in the field and contains numerous problems at the end of the first six chapters.

Series: Condensed Matter Physics
Series: Scottish Graduate
A comprehensive review, this book details the basic structures and properties of one- and two-dimensional fluids and the nature of phase transitions. Beginning with an overview of one- and twodimensional fluids, it goes on to consider the basic structures of these materials and their dynamical and electrical properties, particularly the properties of smectics that offer exciting application possibilities in the displays industry. Later chapters consider the optical, magnetic, and electrical properties of special structures, including uniformly and nonuniformly aligned anisotropic films, lyotropic lamellar systems, helical and chiral structures, and organic anisotropic materials.
The focus of Soft Condensed Matter Physics in Molecular and Cell Biology is based on the poignant realization that biology is soft matter come alive. The book provides a thorough grounding in the fundamental nature and properties of soft matter and then explores its application in biology, especially with regard to DNA investigations and the study of protein behavior. The final section of the book considers experimental techniques, covering single molecule force spectroscopy of proteins, the use of optical tweezers, and solution scattering.

Series: Optical Science and Engineering
This book describes the significant experimental progress made during the past decade. The author first studies superluminal group velocities that are not in conflict with special relativity and the role of quantum effects in preventing superluminal communication and violations of Einstein causality. The book examines the physics at the opposite extreme of very slow group velocities as well as stopped and regenerated light. It also discusses the possibility of designing metamaterials, followed by an introduction to the theory and consequences of negative refractive index. The author explores the possibility that “perfect” lenses can be made from negative-index metamaterials—perhaps the most controversial aspect of the field.
While it is important to understand all types of lasers, from solid state to gaseous, before making a decision for any application, information on gas lasers is often outdated or difficult to find. Filling in the gaps, Gas Lasers discusses the definition and properties of gaseous media along with its fluid dynamics, electric excitation circuits, and optical resonators. From this foundation, the discussion launches into the basic physics, characteristics, applications, and current research efforts for specific types of gas lasers, including CO, CO2, HF/DF, excimer, iodine, and metal vapor lasers. The final chapter discusses miscellaneous lasers not covered in the previous chapters.

This book is the first dedicated to optical soliton propagation in media with non-Kerr law nonlinearities. After establishing a foundation in optical communication and the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, the authors examine various properties of non-Kerr law solitons in detail. They construct soliton dynamics, evaluate the integral of motion, and develop the adiabatic dynamics of soliton parameters for the power law, dual power law, parabolic law, and saturable law nonlinearities. Later chapters discuss intra-channel collisions, optical couplers, and optical bullets. Establishing a basis in an important yet insufficiently documented subject, this book will help fuel advances in optical communication systems.
Based on the experience of active Laser Safety Officer Ken Barat, Laser Safety Management provides practical tools for successfully implementing a laser safety program in any environment. Defining the elements of laser safety, it covers training, control measures, personal protection equipment, the types of laser injuries that can occur, standard operating procedures to ensure safety, as well as tips and tools to avoid pitfalls. The author explores the laser safety officer position and delineates the required elements of effective SOPs. He also discusses nonbeam hazards, includes practical control examples and sample forms, and covers US and European regulations and standards.

This book provides a systematic approach to all aspects of laser applications in conservation. Beginning with an introduction to the basic spectroscopic techniques used in art conservation and archeology, the book describes the fundamental laser-matter interactions that underlie most conservation and cleaning methods. It examines the applications of these methods to the most commonly encountered materials. The authors proceed to consider structural diagnostics through interferometric techniques—methods that identify deformations and distortions at a much smaller scale than previously possible. The book concludes with case studies for the conservation of materials like parchment, paper, metal, ivory, and wood. Catalog no.

Gathering contributions from globally recognized specialists in electrodynamics and quantum optics, this volume continues the debate on the definition of a photon and the concept of waveparticle duality. After covering the mainstream view of the nature of light and photons, it presents a new and challenging scientific epistemology that explains how to overcome the prevailing paradoxes and confusions arising from the accepted definition of a photon as a monochromatic Fourier mode of the vacuum. It concludes with an array of experiments that demonstrate the innovative thinking needed to examine the wave-particle duality of photons.
Optics in Magnetic Multilayers and Nanostructures presents an accessible, time-saving introduction to optics in anisotropic magnetic media. It provides detailed explanations and full stepby-step derivations that offer insight into the procedure and reveal any approximations. The author explains the basic concepts of magnetooptics; nonreciprocal wave propagation; the simultaneous effect of crystalline symmetry and arbitrarily oriented magnetization on the form of permittivity tensors; spectral dependence of permittivity; multilayers at polar, longitudinal, transverse, and arbitrary magnetization; the effect of normal incidence on multilayers; and anisotropic multilayer gratings.

Providing exact solutions of more than 200 nonlinear equations and models, this book begins with classical as well as more recent examples of interesting solutions on linear invariant subspaces for nonlinear operators. In the remainder of the book, the authors develop several techniques for constructing exact solutions that describe singularity behavior for various nonlinear PDEs, including gas dynamics models, free-boundary problems, Green–Naghdi equations, and quasilinear pseudo-parabolic (magma) equations. Using exact solutions, they describe the evolution properties related to singularity blow-up or extinction phenomena, finite interface propagation and regularity, and the oscillatory, changing sign behavior of weak solutions near interfaces.
This text provides an introduction to the ideas and techniques of differential geometry and topology. It starts with a brief survey of quantum field theory, gauge theory, general relativity, vector spaces, and topology. Using many illustrations, exercises, and problems, the author demonstrates more elaborate concepts of topology and geometry, including fiber bundles, characteristic classes, and index theorems. It also provides the proof of the index theorem in terms of supersymmetric quantum mechanics. The final two chapters examine anomalies in gauge field theories and the analysis of Polakov’s bosonic string theory from the geometrical point of view.

Thermal Physics Second Edition C.B.P. Finn
Walton C. Gibson
University of Sussex, UK
Tripoint Industries Inc., Harvest, Alabama, USA
Series: Physics and Its Applications
Responding to the need for a clear, up-to-date introduction to the field, this book explores surface integral equations in electromagnetics and presents their numerical solution using the MOM technique. It covers a range of topics, from the initial underpinnings of MOM to its current applications. The book focuses on applications to radiation and scattering problems, including antenna design and analysis as well as radar cross-section prediction. It also highlights recent techniques, such as the fast multipole method for electrodynamic problems. The text derives or summarizes the matrix elements used in every MOM problem and explains the approach used in and the results of each example.
Thermodynamics is an essential part of any physical sciences education, but it is so full of pitfalls and subtleties that many students fail to appreciate its elegance and power. In this second edition of Thermal Physics, the author emphasizes understanding the basic ideas and shows how important thermodynamics results can be simply obtained from fundamental relations without getting lost in a maze of partial differentials. This second edition incorporates new sections on scales of temperature, availability, the degradation of energy, and lattice defects. The text contains ample illustrations and examples of applications of thermodynamics in physics, engineering, and chemistry.

Thermodynamics in Materials Science
Adhesion Measurement Methods
Robert DeHoff
Robert Lacombe
This book explains the thermodynamics background necessary for generating accurate maps of equilibrium states to predict behavior in a wide range of materials. It also illustrates which maps are best suited for specific real-world scenarios and thermodynamic problems. This second edition introduces new, more user-friendly computer software for converting more comprehensive databases into equilibrium maps. Examples and sample problems show how to apply appropriate strategies and develop the working equations of thermodynamics for systems of systematically increasing complexity. A printed solutions manual and online instructor’s notes are available for qualifying instructors.
Depending on the intended purpose, the precise meaning of adhesion strength is quite slippery. A measurement taken for a thinfilm application of a substance will likely have little predictive merit for a thick-film application of that substance to exactly the same substrate. Adhesion Measurement Methods provides practical information on the most important measurement techniques, their unique advantages and disadvantages, and the selection of the proper method for a given application. The author discusses optimal methods for setting adhesion strength requirements while avoiding over-specification of such requirements. An entire chapter provides detailed examples of adhesion problems.

With their unique electrical and thermal properties, ceramics are ideal for application in a wide variety of electronic systems and products. However, they are relegated either to a single chapter in electronic packaging books or to older, dated treatments. Offering much more than a discourse on the materials science behind these technologies, this book offers comprehensive, up-to-date coverage of all aspects of ceramic interconnect technologies in electronics and electronic packaging. The authors authoritatively discuss trends in electronic packaging; electrical design, simulation, and testing; ceramic materials; and the various types of ceramic interconnects, devices, and applications.
It is well recognized that the mechanical performance of materials is dependant upon the composition of their microstructures. By judiciously adjusting the composition, new properties can be developed. This comprehensive volume evaluates the microstructure-property relationships of various ceramic-matrix composites. Organized into five sections, it examines fiber, whisker, and particulate-reinforced ceramic composites; graded and layered composites; nanostructured ceramic composites; refractory and specialty ceramic composites, such as magnesia-spinel composites; superplastic ceramic composites; oxide-carbon metal systems; and highly porous carbon-carbon composites.

This carefully crafted work focuses on research concerning the performance of materials used in structural construction, such as concrete, composite materials, timber, iron and steel, aluminum and titanium alloys, superalloys, and intermetallics. The Deformation and Processing of Structural Materials gives engineers a better understanding of the performance of the major structural materials (especially metals) under different conditions so that they can select materials and set design specifications for specific applications. It also shows how processing affects the microstructural composition of materials and, subsequently, their in situ performance.
Fundamentals of Machining Processes is the first to collect all of the major conventional and nonconventional machining methods into a single reference, from cutting and abrasive processes to erosion, hybrid, and micromachining processes. It begins with an introduction to the various machining processes, followed by the mechanics and economics of cutting, abrasive, erosion, and micromachining processes. The author discusses the advantages, limitations, and applications for each process along with the factors influencing its economics. Extensive worked examples, illustrations, and exercises reinforce a practical understanding of the concepts. A solutions manual is available for qualifying instructors.

Currently in the polyurethane industry, the suppliers of the raw materials give information on how to process materials without always explaining why these recommendations are being made. Castable Polyurethane Elastomers provides an understanding of the background of such recommendations and how they achieve desired outcomes. The book discusses the production of polyurethane components from theoretical and practical aspects. Addressing health and safety issues at each stage, it progresses from raw materials to the production of prepolymers, covering the different types of available systems, the reasons for choosing the right system on micro and macro levels, and curing and post-curing operations.
Due to their unique properties, rubber materials are widely used for engineering applications, such as tires, engine mounts, seals, shock absorbers, and more. The design of these highly technical parts frequently necessitates a great control of their response and high guarantees of reliability.

Surface Engineering
Series: Materials Engineering
Presenting a new approach to the development of an emerging generation of surface-engineered nanostructured materials, this book discusses self-organization phenomenon, physical and chemical aspects of friction, and the methods of friction control in advanced materials and coatings. Application of these new generations of materials are instrumental in transferring tribosystems working under extreme external impact with excessive wear rate into milder friction conditions. The book demonstrates that the abnormal capacity of self-adaptive materials to resist severe friction conditions is associated with their nanoscale structure as well as synergistic alloying.

Taylor & Francis Group Pioneers in Publishing Grounded in a century-long tradition of publishing excellence, CRC Press Taylor & Francis continues to provide our world with the resources needed to promote human progress and meet the challenges that might stand in the way of that progress. Producers of printed handbooks, textbooks, tutorials, and field guides, as well as e-books, online libraries, and interactive databases, CRC Press is a full service print and electronic publisher committed to recording the accomplishments and supporting the work of the world’s leading practitioners and researchers. It’s no coincidence that many of the issues in today’s headlines read like a list of CRC new releases… from five or even ten years ago. Just as it’s never been a coincidence that the fields of inquiry our authors pursue today often bear the greatest fruit tomorrow. Whether its advancing agriculture yield, improving infrastructure, developing clean and green alternatives, retrofitting industry, reorganizing healthcare, securing our homeland, streamlining public administration, or defining just who we are and where we are going, CRC has the resources and references to turn students into professionals and leaders, researchers into innovators and pioneers. In the classroom, in the laboratory, and out in the field, wherever challenges are being met by research, ingenuity, and determination, you will find those who create and rely on the authoritative content that is the power of CRC Press.
