Carbon Allotropes
The study of corrosion-resistant coatings using nanostructured materials is developing and growing at a very rapid rate. Carbon Allotropes: Advanced Anticorrosive Coatings Materials summarizes current research and technology on the significance of carbon allotropes in anticorrosive coatings. The book describes the synthesis, characterization, inhibitory mechanism, and industrial applications of carbon allotropes as a corrosion-resistant coating. The usage of carbon allotropes as nanostructure materials based on corrosion-resistant coatings used in contemporary industrial platforms is discussed in this book. Additionally, this book assesses the potential of carbon allotropes as the foundation...
Theory and Practice of Pile Foundations
Pile Foundations are an essential basis for many structures. It is vital that they be designed with the utmost reliability, because the cost of failure is potentially huge. Covering a whole range of design issues relating to pile design, this book presents economical and efficient design solutions and demonstrates them using real world examples. Coverage includes nonlinear response of single piles to vertical or torsional loading and to cyclic lateral loading, as well as prediction of nonlinear response of lateral pile groups, vertically loaded pile groups and the design of slope stabilising piles. Most solutions are provided as closed-form expressions. Theory and Practice of Pile Foundations is: illustrated with case studies accompanied by practical applications in Excel and MathCad the first book to incorporate nonlinear interaction into pile design. A valuable resource for students of geotechnical engineering taking courses in foundations and a vital tool for engineers designing pile foundations.

On the Electro-Chemo-Mechanical Coupling in Solid State Batteries and its Impact on Morphological Interface Stability
Solid state batteries with a lithium metal electrode are considered the next generation of high energy battery technology. Unfortunately, lithium metal is prone to harmful protrusion or dendrite growth which causes dangerous cell failure. Within this work the problem of protrusion growth is tackled by deriving a novel electro-chemo-mechanical theory tailored for binary solid state batteries which is then used to discuss the impact of mechanics on interface stability by numerical studies.
