Nucleation and Growth in Applied Materials covers fundamental aspects of thermodynamics and kinetics, nucleation and growth phenomena occurring during materials processing and synthesis in engineering of materials. Theoretical and practical approaches used to identify and quantify nucleation are analyzed. These approaches can be used to explain the relationship of the physical properties of the material with nucleation and growth processes. Sections cover modern methods such as SEM, TEM, EBSD microtexture, X-ray macrotexture and modeling and simulation (Monte Carlo, Molecular dynamic simulation, machine learning, etc.). Based on these observations, their applications in engineering materials...
This issue of ECS Transactions (ECST) comprises a selection of papers presented at the 24th national meeting of the Mexican Electrochemical Society (MES) and the second meeting of the Mexican Section of The Electrochemical Society (ECS), carried out in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, from May 31 to June 5, 2009.
The first book of its kind, Environmental Electrochemistry considers the role that electrochemical science and engineering can play in environmental remediation, pollution targeting, and pollutant recycling. Electrochemical-based sensors and abatement technologies for the detection, quantification, and treatment of environmental pollutants are described. Each chapter includes an extensive listing of supplemental readings, with illustrations throughout the bookto clarify principles and approaches detailed in the text. The first book to review electro- and photoelectrochemical technologies for environmental remediation, pollution sensors and pollutant recycling Applicable to a broad audience of environmental scientists and practicing electrochemists Includes both laboratory concepts and practical applications
Electrochemistry and Materials Engineering is a book formed by 20 peer reviewed research works. Written for researchers in science and engineering, and for postgraduate students alike, this book covers areas that are of both fundamental and practical importance. Readers will find an excellent mix of both theory and applications, providing a collection of highly-regarded reviews and original contributions to the field. This book is intended to gather relevant papers concerning the application of electrochemical quantum chemical methods to characterize materials and/or to synthesize and evaluate their performance in a number of different environments. This edition comprises 20 chapters covering different aspects, such as nanostructured materials (Ch. 1), electrocatalysis (Ch. 2), electrodeposition (Chs.3, 6, 11, 14 and 16), conducting polymers (Ch. 17), corrosion (Chs. 5, 7, 9, 10 and 12), electroanalysis (Chs. 4, 13, and 20), bioelectrochemistry (Chs. 8 and 18) and theoretical DFT studies (Chs. 15 and 19).
Solid Lubrication Fundamentals and Applications description of the adhesion, friction, abrasion, and wear behavior of solid film lubricants and related tribological materials, including diamond and diamond-like solid films. The book details the properties of solid surfaces, clean surfaces, and contaminated surfaces as well as discussing the structu
Seventeen-year-old Miguel Angel spends every minute after school at the Packing Shed, working out with the Alisal Boxing Club. He dreams of becoming a champion so he can get his mother and five siblings out of their cramped one-bedroom apartment in one of Salinas’ poorest barrios. But suddenly his life gets more complicated. The city is threatening to take the Packing Shed away from Coach, and without a place to train he won’t be able to avoid the gangbangers in his neighborhood. His childhood friend, Beto, has succumbed to the wiles of easy money and expensive cars, and Miguel Angel wonders if he’ll be able to resist his friend. Meanwhile, beautiful blonde Britney from Pebble Beach ha...
