This book reviews the current understanding of electronic, optical and magnetic properties of conjugated polymers in both the semiconducting and metallic states.

In this book, production rules are studied for situations which share some important elements.

During the last decade, surface research has clearly shifted its interest from the macroscopic to the microscopic scale; a wealth of novel experimental techniques and theoretical methods have been applied and developed successfully.

This book is a compilation of some fundamental properties of polymers, arranged alphabetically in one table.

The motions of liquids in moving containers constitute a broad class of problems of great practical importance in many technical fields.

At the present time, we are witnessing a period of vigorous growth in the iron and steel industries of the older industrialised countries.

The present book contains papers that have been selected from contributions to the First International Symposium on Turbulent Shear Flows which was held from the 18th to 20th April 1977 at The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, Pennsylvania, USA.

The Workshop on Desorption Induced by Electronic Transitions (DIET) took place May 12-14, 1982, in Williamsburg, Virginia.

The book covers the flux pinning mechanisms and properties and the electromagnetic phenomena caused by the flux pinning common for metallic, high-Tc and MgB2 superconductors.

The frequent use of well known critical data handbooks like Beilstein, Gmelin and Landolt- Bornstein is impeded by the fact that merely larger libraries - often far away from the scientist's working place - can afford such precious collections.

Billions of dollars are tied up in the inventories of manufacturing companies which cause large (interest) costs.

This book on pressure-induced phase transitions in AB2X4 chalcogenide compounds deals with one important AmBnXp material.

This book brings together a curated selection of research in the broad field of smart materials, emphasizing their properties, functionality, and transformative potential.

The study of quantum fluids, stimulated by the discovery of superfluidity in liquid helium, has experienced renewed interest after the observation of Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) in ultra-cold atomic gases and the observation a new type of quantum fluid with specific characteristics derived from its intrinsic out-of-equilibrium nature.

Starting from the basics of analog filters and the poor transistor characteristics in nanometer CMOS 10 high-performance analog filters developed by the authors in 120 nm and 65 nm CMOS are described extensively.

This volume brings together five contributions to mathematical fluid mechanics, a classical but still very active research field which overlaps with physics and engineering.

This book presents the various types of resonance effects on excitons, biexcitons and the local electronic centers (LEC) in solids, such as paramagnetic and paraelectric resonances on excitons, exciton acoustic resonance at intra- and interband transitions, radio-optical double resonance on excitons, hole-nuclear double resonance on localized biexcitons, ENDOR and acoustic ENDOR on LEC.

This book describes theoretical aspects of the metallic magnetism from metals to disordered alloys to amorphous alloys both at the ground state and at finite temperatures.

This comprehensive book presents all aspects of acoustic metamaterials and phononic crystals.

Quantum Chemistry of Solids delivers a comprehensive account of the main features and possibilities of LCAO methods for the first principles calculations of electronic structure of periodic systems.

Kinetic Monte Carlo (kMC) simulations still represent a quite new area of research, with a rapidly growing number of publications.

Glass production is thought to date to ~2500 BC and had found numerous uses by the height of the Roman Empire.

The Augmented Spherical Wave (ASW) method is one of the most powerful approaches to handle the requirements of finite basis sets in DFT calculations.

Polymer science is now an active and thriving community of scientists, engineers and technologists, but there was a time, not so long ago, when there was no such community.

Complex, microstructured materials are widely used in industry and technology and include alloys, ceramics and composites.

The therapeutic potential of the use of adipose stem cells in regenerative medicine has been increasingly recognized, and in recent years concrete clinical benefits have accrued as these cells have been explored for a variety of applications.
