This book covers state-of-the-art technologies, principles, methods and industrial applications of electronic waste (e-waste) and waste PCB (WPCB) recycling.

This book presents a consistent mathematical theory of the non-electronic physical properties of disordered and amorphous solids, starting from the atomic-level dynamics and leading to experimentally verifiable descriptions of macroscopic properties such as elastic and viscoelastic moduli, plasticity, phonons and vibrational spectra, and thermal properties.

This book focuses on polarization microscopy, a powerful optical tool used to study anisotropic properties in biomolecules, and its enormous potential to improve diagnostic tools for various biomedical research.

This book describes the computational methods most frequently used to deal with the interaction of charged particles, notably electrons, with condensed matter.

This book highlights a comprehensive introduction to the principles and calculation methods of computational optical imaging.

This book introduces the ideas and concepts of nonlinear dielectric spectroscopy, outlines its history, and provides insight into the present state of the art of the experimental technology and understanding of nonlinear dielectric effects.

This book focuses on recent advances in dental gold alloys and gold nanoparticles (GNPs) for biomedical applications.

Written by three leading experts in the field, this book describes and explains all essential aspects of scanning probe microscopy.

Artists' oil paints have become increasingly complex and diverse in the 20th Century, applied by artists in a variety of ways.

Granular forms of common materials such as metals and ceramics, sands and soils, porous energetic materials (explosives, reactive mixtures), and foams exhibit interesting behaviors due to their heterogeneity and critical length scale, typically commensurate with the grain or pore size.

This comprehensive textbook presents fundamental concepts and detailed analysis of stress in homogeneous and isotropic solids using a tensor approach.

This cutting-edge text covers current experimental approaches to quantify the fracture resistance in non-conventional specimens, assessment of ductile tearing and brittle fracture, and new approaches to estimate welded joints under high and low cycles and combined actions.
