Living in biofilms is the common way of life of microorganisms, transiently immobilized in their matrix of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), interacting in many ways and using the matrix as an external digestion and protection system.
The present Volume 5 of the successful book package "e;Multiphase Flow Dynamics"e; is devoted to nuclear thermal hydraulics which is a substantial part of nuclear reactor safety.
The state-of-the-art in fluvial hydrodynamics can be examined only through a careful exploration of the theoretical development and applied engineering technology.
Laser-enabled measurements are valuable tools for the investigation of surfaces and interfaces or for the in situ investigation of interfacial processes including electrode processes.
Aus Fehlern lernen – Wissen über Vorkommnisse, die sich als fehlerhaft oder störend im Prozess der Glasherstellung und -verarbeitung herausstellten, sind die Grundlage für fehlerfrei ablaufende Prozesse.
"e;Semiconductor-On-Insulator Materials for NanoElectronics Applications"e; is devoted to the fast evolving field of modern nanoelectronics, and more particularly to the physics and technology of nanoelectronic devices built on semiconductor-on-insulator (SemOI) systems.
Das anwendungsorientierte Buch führt in den Zusammenhang von Kontaktmechanik und Reibung ein und ermöglicht damit ein tieferes Verständnis der Tribologie.
Data on the synthesis and physicochemical studies of salts of mono- or dibasic unsaturated carboxylic acids and macromolecular metal carboxylates are generalised and described systematically in this monograph.
The book is about calorimetry and thermal analysis methods, alone or linked to other techniques, as applied to the characterization of catalysts, supports and adsorbents, and to the study of catalytic reactions in various domains: air and wastewater treatment, clean and renewable energies, refining of hydrocarbons, green chemistry, hydrogen production and storage.
In this book, regular structures are de ned as periodic structures consisting of repeated elements (translational symmetry) as well as structures with a geom- ric symmetry.
November, 2008 Anna Schwarz, Johannes Janicka In the last thirty years noise emission has developed into a topic of increasing importance to society and economy.
Das Buch beschreibt die Konzepte siliziumbasierter MOS-Bauelemente für Logikanwendungen (CMOS), Speicheranwendungen (DRAM, SRAM, EEPROM) und leistungselektronische Anwendungen.
Thermofluids, while a relatively modern term, is applied to the well-established field of thermal sciences, which is comprised of various intertwined disciplines.
This book takes a multiscale approach to explore the plastic forming and deformation of metals, spanning a wide spectrum from the macroscale to the mesoscale, microscale, nanoscale, and atomic levels.
