What is What in the Nanoworld: A Handbook on Nanoscience and Nanotechnology

John Wiley & Sons, 2008

More than 1,400 entries, from a few sentences to a page in length. The second, completely revised and enlarged edition of this introductory reference handbook summarizes the terms and definitions, most important phenomena, and regulations occurring in the physics, chemistry, technology, and application of nanostructures. A representative collection...

Lubricant Additives: Chemistry and Applications, Second Edition (Chemical Industries Series)

CRC Press, 2009

Cost, environmental, and performance issues coupled with legislative changes, new engine oil requirements, and technology development for exploration of space and the oceans are changing the lubrication additive market. Reflecting how the need for new applications drives the development of new lubricant additives, Lubricant Additives:...

Sputtering by Particle Bombardment: Experiments and Computer Calculations from Threshold to MeV Energies

Springer, 2007

Within the last 15 years in the field of “sputtering by particle bombardment” several new and important results have been published in internal reports, in PhD thesis, as well as in the open literature. This relates especially to a more detailed understanding of the sputtering process by computational means such as...

Vector Analysis for Computer Graphics

Springer, 2007

Vector analysis is relatively young in the history of mathematics, however, in the short period of its existence it has become a powerful and central tool in describing and solving a wide range of geometric problems, many, of which, arise in computer graphics. These may be in the form of describing lines, surfaces and volumes, which may touch,...

Robust Range Image Registration Using Genetic Algorithms And The Surface Interpenetration Measure

World Scientific Publishing, 2004

This book addresses the range image registration problem for automatic 3D model construction. The focus is on obtaining highly precise alignments between different view pairs of the same object to avoid 3D model distortions; in contrast to most prior work, the view pairs may exhibit relatively little overlap and need not be prealigned. To this end,...

Deformable Surface 3D Reconstruction from Monocular Images (Synthesis Lectures on Computer Vision)

Morgan and Claypool Publishers, 2010

Deformable surface 3D reconstruction from monocular images is an active area of research in the Computer Vision community. This encompasses recovering both the shape of thin objects that can be treated as surfaces without perceptible thickness and the visible envelope of fully 3D objects. Whereas this may seem easy for a human...

The Monte Carlo Ray-Trace Method in Radiation Heat Transfer and Applied Optics (Wiley-ASME Press Series)

John Wiley & Sons, 2019

A groundbreaking guide dedicated exclusively to the MCRT method in radiation heat transfer and applied optics

The Monte Carlo Ray-Trace Method in Radiation Heat Transfer and Applied Optics offers the most modern and up-to-date approach to radiation heat transfer modelling and performance...

Financial Modelling: Theory, Implementation and Practice with MATLAB Source (The Wiley Finance Series)

John Wiley & Sons, 2013

Financial Modelling - Theory, Implementation and Practice is a unique combination of quantitative techniques, the application to financial problems and programming using Matlab. The book enables the reader to model, design and implement a wide range of financial models for derivatives pricing and asset allocation, providing...

Computational Line Geometry (Mathematics and Visualization)

Springer, 2010

The geometry of lines occurs naturally in such different areas as sculptured surface machining, computation of offsets and medial axes, surface reconstruction for reverse engineering, geometrical optics, kinematics and motion design, and modeling of developable surfaces. This book covers line geometry from various viewpoints and aims towards...

Houches Lectures: 1972, Black Holes (Les Houches Lectures : 1972 Lectures)

Routledge, 1973

The story of the phenomenal transformation of general relativity within little more than a decade, from a quiet backwater of research, harboring a handful of theorists, to a booming outpost attracting increasing numbers of highly talented young people as well as heavy investment in experiments, is by now familiar. The amazing thing about this...

Lectures on Classical Differential Geometry: Second Edition (Dover Books on Mathematics)

Dover Publications, 1988

This book has developed from a one-term course in differential geometry given for juniors, seniors, and graduate students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. It presents the fundamental conceptions of the theory of curves and surfaces and applies them to a number of examples. Some care is given to historical, biographical, and...
