 Electroactive Polymers for Robotic Applications: Artificial Muscles and SensorsElectroactive polymers (EAPs) respond to electrical stimulation with large deformations. They are dynamic actuators which have attracted attention from an interdisciplinary audience of engineers and scientists. An enabling EAP technology is emerging which attempts to imitate the properties of natural muscle and which, as a result, can perform a... |  |  Materials for the Hydrogen EconomyMaterials for the Hydrogen Economy describes the technical challenges and the current efforts in developing materials possessing the properties required for handling each stage of the hydrogen fuel chain. This book covers all seven of the current hydrogen production methods, as well as distribution, storage, and utilization technologies-fuel cells... |  |  Renewable Energy (Energy Science and Engineering)The present edition has been updated in a number of renewable energy technology areas (Chapter 4 and 5), where progress have been made over the recent years. New solar simulation studies have been added to Chapter 6, and market considerations have been included in the overview in Chapter 1, and in discussing industry liberalisation in Chapter 7.... |

 |  |  Introduction to Quantum Theory and Atomic Structure (Oxford Chemistry Primers, 37)This book illuminates the basic concepts of quantum chemistry, and emphasizes atomic structure but not molecular applications. The author starts with a survey of the basic ideas and problems of wave/particle duality, the nature of wave function, and its statistical interpretation. He then discusses some important applications of Schrodinger's... |  |  The Martians of Science: Five Physicists Who Changed the Twentieth CenturyIf science has the equivalent of a Bloomsbury group, it is the five men born at the turn of the twentieth century in Budapest: Theodore von Karman, Leo Szilard, Eugene Wigner, John von Neumann, and Edward Teller. From Hungary to Germany to the United States, they remained friends and continued to work together and influence each other throughout... |
