Bringing together basic ideas, classical theories, recent experimental and theoretical aspects, this book explains desiccation cracks from simple, easily-comprehensible cases to more complex, applied situations.
Many books explain the theory of atomistic computer simulations; this book teaches you how to run them This introductory "e;how to"e; title enables readers to understand, plan, run, and analyze their own independent atomistic simulations, and decide which method to use and which questions to ask in their research project.

Authored by ESO senior advisor Claus Madsen, the present book comprises 576 action-packed pages of ESO history and dramatic stories about the people behind the organisation.
Since modeling multiscale phenomena in systems biology and neuroscience is a highly interdisciplinarytask, the editor of the book invited experts in bio-engineering, chemistry, cardiology, neuroscience,computer science, and applied mathematics, to provide their perspectives.

The connection between the quantum behavior of the structure elements of a substance and the parameters that determine the macroscopic behavior of materials has a major influence on the properties exhibited by different solids.

Begegnungen am CERN – Menschen, die die Geheimnisse des Universums entschlüsseln/Michael Krause stellt sie uns vor Eine »wissenschaftliche Sensation«, ein »historischer Meilenstein«, historisch so bedeutend wie die Mondlandung: Als Wissenschaftler des CERN im Juli 2012 die Existenz eines »Gottesteilchens«, das allen anderen Teilchen Masse verleiht, mit einer Wahrscheinlichkeit von mehr als 99,999 Prozent bestätigten, waren die Reaktionen überwältigend.
