This book contains a selection of the lectures presented at the Euromech Colloquium 255, held at the Liborianum, Paderborn, from 31 October to 2 November 1989.
This monograph is neither a historical outline of the development of the concepts of protein biosynthesis and the structure and functions of the ribosomes, nor an exhaustive survey of the literature on these questions.
Although the subject of wave propagation in solids has a long history, the classical theory of elastic waves having been developed in the nine- teenth century by STOKES, POISSON, RAYLEIGH and KELVIN, the last two decades have seen a remarkable revival of interest in this subject among both theoreticians and experimenters.
Next to the harmonic oscillator and the Coulomb potential the class of two-body models with point interactions is the only one where complete solutions are available.
Much progress has been made in scattering theory since the publication of the first edition of this book fifteen years ago, and it is time to update it.
Das von einem der versiertesten Experten der physikalischen Metallkunde geschriebene Standardwerk erläutert mit den Mitteln der Festkörperphysik, der Chemischen Thermodynamik und Kinetik die Eigenschaften, die Umwandlungsvorgänge und das Gefüge von metallischen Werkstoffen.
The increase in the requirements on the reliability of units makes it necessary to analyze the relationship between mathematicalmeth- ods of calculating reliability and the physical nature of fail- ures.
More than a generation of Gennan-speaking students around the world have worked their way to an understanding and appreciation of the power and beauty of modern theoretical physics - with mathematics, the most fundamental of sciences - using Walter Greiner's textbooks as their guide.
Wie bereits Band I, der die zu verbindenden Werkstoffebehandelt, wurde nunmehr auch Band II, der den Verfahren undder einschl{gigen Fertigungstechnik gewidmet ist,vollst{ndig }berarbeitet und aktualisiert.
This volume collects my shorter articles on the history of mechanics, some already published in various places, some revised from earlier papers, and some never published before.
Multibody systems are the appropriate models for predicting and evaluating performance of a variety of dynamical systems such as spacecraft, vehicles, mechanisms, robots or biomechanical systems.
This book intended for shop use tries to familiarize the reader with the peculiari- ties of a hardening method which due to its many advantages is now in use,many shops.
Although the chemistry of boron is still relatively young, it is developing at a pace where even specific areas of research are difficult to compile into a monograph.
Correlation Effects in Low-Dimensional Electron Systems describes recent developments in theoretical condensed-matter physics, emphasizing exact solutions in one dimension including conformal-field theoretical approaches, the application of quantum groups, and numerical diagonalization techniques.
The IUTAM Symposium on "e;Discrete Structural Optimization"e; was devoted to discuss optimization problems for which design va- riables may not be sought among continuous sets.
The purpose of this volume is to give a detailed account of a series of re- sults concerning some ergodic questions of quantum mechanics which have the past six years following the formulation of a generalized been addressed in Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy by A.
This volume contains the proceedings of the Seventh International Conference on Phonon Scattering in Condensed Matter held August 3-7, 1992, at Cornell University in Ithaca, NY, USA.
The International Winter School on Electronic Properties of High-Temperature Superconductors, held between March 7-14, 1992, in Kirchberg, (Tyrol) Austria, was the sixth in a series of meetings to be held at this venue.
Owing to new physical, technological, and device concepts oflow-dimensionalelectronic systems, the physics andfabrication of quasi-zero, one- and two-dimensional systemsare rapidly growing fields.
