This is the story of speed, of the hunt for speed, of catching time, of mastering time. This is the story of Tag Heuer, the legendary time brand. Every story starts with a man and a passion. Edouard Heuer, the founder of our destiny had the vision of time. The man became a team, a passionate team. And the road became a speedway of legendary competitions linking today's most powerful men, those heroes of our time, in a "course contre la montre". To catch the time was also our design, since our roots are made of it; our identity has always been influenced by the biggest names of architecture, art, and avante-garde industrial designers of each generation. AUTHOR: Nick Foulkes is an horology enthusiast, historian, author, and journalist. He has written books on subjects as diverse as James Bond and the Count d'Orsay, who was the subject of the biography Last Dandies. He is the author of The Carlyle, The Trench Book, Cigar Style, and Mikimoto, as well as a special edition of High Society for watchmaker Vacheron Constantin. ILLUSTRATIONS 150 images *

  • Publisher: Elsevier

This is the first volume to appear under the joint editorship of J.P. Hirth and F.R.N. Nabarro. While Volume 11 concentrated on the single topic of dislocations and work hardening, the present volume spreads over the whole range of the study of dislocations from the application by Kléman and his colleagues of homotopy theory to classifying the line and point defects of mesomorphic phases to Chaudhri's account of the experimental observations of dislocations formed around indentations.Chapter 64, by Cai, Bulatove, Chang, Li and Yip, discusses the influence of the structure of the core of a dislocation on its mobility. The power of modern computation allows this topic to be treated from the f...

Plastic Deformation of Ceramics

This proceedings volume, "Plastic Deformation of Ceramics," constitutes the papers of an international symposium held at Snowbird, Utah from August 7-12, 1994. It was attended by nearly 100 scientists and engineers from more than a dozen countries representing academia, national laboratories, and industry. Two previous conferences on this topic were held at The Pennsylvania State University in 1974 and 1983. Therefore, the last major international conference focusing on the deformation of ceramic materials was held more than a decade ago. Since the early 1980s, ceramic materials have progressed through an evolutionary period of development and advancement. They are now under consideration fo...

Advanced Structural Ceramics

This book covers the area of advanced ceramic composites broadly, providing important introductory chapters to fundamentals, processing, and applications of advanced ceramic composites. Within each section, specific topics covered highlight the state of the art research within one of the above sections. The organization of the book is designed to provide easy understanding by students as well as professionals interested in advanced ceramic composites. The various sections discuss fundamentals of nature and characteristics of ceramics, processing of ceramics, processing and properties of toughened ceramics, high temperature ceramics, nanoceramics and nanoceramic composites, and bioceramics and biocomposites.

Mechanical Properties of Structural Films

Recent advances in the mechanical properties of structural films are described in these papers from a November 2000 symposium held in Orlando, Florida. Papers are organized in sections on fracture and fatigue of structural films, elastic behavior and residual stress in thin films, tensile testing of

Ceramics in Advanced Energy Technologies

The European Colloquium on Ceramics in Advanced Energy Technology dealt with structural, mechanical, thermo-physical, chemical and electrical/electronics aspects of ceramics, as candidates materials in advanced energy conversion systems. The technical programme included the presentation of 22 invited papers. The Colloquium was concluded by a panel discussion which was preceeded by a presentation on the Ceramic Fabrication. For convenience, papers and discussions are arranged in the same way as they were presented at the Colloquium, followed by the conclusions drawn by the panel members. The editors wish to express their gratitude to the authors for the preparation and the presentation of the...

Materials Synthesis and Characterization

One area of science that has shown an explosive growth over the last few decades is materials science. Inherently by nature products of both basic and applied research, materials make possible life and society as we know it today. Materials, ranging from ceramics to semiconductors to composites, are such that new ones must not only be designed and made ... they must also be characterized in terms of their physical, chemical, and mechanical properties. Thus, many new state of-the-art techniques involving spectroscopy, microscopy, and other approaches are now routinely used. Modem materials have wide applications in many sectors of technology. Films, for example, constitute an enormous area of...
