The physics and mathematics of nonlinear dynamics, chaotic and complex systems constitute some of the most fascinating developments of late twentieth century science. It turns out that chaotic bahaviour can be understood, and even utilized, to a far greater degree than had been suspected. Surprisingly, universal constants have been discovered. The implications have changed our understanding of important phenomena in physics, biology, chemistry, economics, medicine and numerous other fields of human endeavor. In this book, two dozen scientists and mathematicians who were deeply involved in the "nonlinear revolution" cover most of the basic aspects of the field.
Although several books and conference proceedings have already appeared dealing with either the mathematical aspects or applications of homogenization theory, there seems to be no comprehensive volume dealing with both aspects. The present volume is meant to fill this gap, at least partially, and deals with recent developments in nonlinear homogenization emphasizing applications of current interest. It contains thirteen key lectures presented at the NATO Advanced Workshop on Nonlinear Homogenization and Its Applications to Composites, Polycrystals and Smart Materials. The list of thirty one contributed papers is also appended. The key lectures cover both fundamental, mathematical aspects of ...

All papers have been peer-reviewed. For researchers in Condensed Matter Physics, this conference provided a forum for presentation and discussion of the new concepts and developments in magnetic materials encompassing the areas like: (1) molecular magnet, (2) magnetic thin film and multilayer, (3) nanoparticle, (4) alloy and intermetallic, (5) transition metal oxides (6) frustated, spin glass and amorphous material and (7) magnetic semiconducors. New results obtained using experimental techniques like: (a) magnetization and magneto-transport and magneto-calorie, (b) scattering techniques (light and neutron), and (c) resonance techniques (EPR, NMR and Mossbauer) as well as many important theoretical developments were discussed.
