Carbon Nanotubes: Basic Concepts and Physical Properties

Stephanie Reich, Christian Thomsen, Janina Maultzsch “Carbon Nanotubes: Basic Concepts and Physical Properties"
Wiley-VCH | 2004-04-09 | ISBN: 3527403868 | 224 pages | PDF | 6 MB

Carbon nanotubes are exceptionally interesting from a fundamental research point of view. Many concepts of one-dimensional physics have been verified experimentally such as electron and phonon confinement or the one-dimensional singularities in the density of states; other 1D signatures are still under debate, such as Luttinger-liquid behavior. Carbon nanotubes are chemically stable, mechanically very strong, and conduct electricity. For this reason, they open up new perspectives for various applications, such as nano-transistors in circuits, field-emission displays, artificial muscles, or added reinforcements in alloys.
This text is an introduction to the physical concepts needed for investigating carbon nanotubes and other one-dimensional solid-state systems. Written for a wide scientific readership, each chapter consists of an instructive approach to the topic and sustainable ideas for solutions. The former is generally comprehensible for physicists and chemists, while the latter enable the reader to work towards the state of the art in that area. The book gives for the first time a combined theoretical and experimental description of topics like luminescence of carbon nanotubes, Raman scattering, or transport measurements. The theoretical concepts discussed range from the tight-binding approximation, which can be followed by pencil and paper, to first-principles simulations. We emphasize a comprehensive theoretical and experimental understanding of carbon nanotubes including
- general concepts for one-dimensional systems
- an introduction to the symmetry of nanotubes
- textbook models of nanotubes as narrow cylinders
- a combination of ab-initio calculations and experiments
- luminescence excitation spectroscopy linked to Raman spectroscopy
- an introduction to the 1D-transport properties of nanotubes
- effects of bundling on the electronic and vibrational properties and
- resonance Raman scattering in nanotubes.

Organizational Knowledge and Technology

Organizational Knowledge and Technology
Edward Elgar Publishing | 2004-08-04 | ISBN: 184376282X | 272 pages | PDF | 1 MB

This book attempts to make sense of a new area of integrated study, namely information systems and information technology (IS/IT) and the organization. It also aims to bring this mix into the broader theme of complexity as applied to organization and management and to draw useful conclusions about how to organize and how to manage IS/IT in the knowledge era. The author argues in favor of a more action-oriented - as opposed to planning dominated - approach to information systems management.

Forensic Science: Modern Methods of Solving Crime

Max M. Houck “Forensic Science: Modern Methods of Solving Crime"
Praeger Publishers | 2007-03-30 | ISBN: 027599323X | 184 pages | PDF | 5,5 MB

From Poe's Dupin and Doyle's Holmes to the television hits Quincy and CSI, the public's fascination with science employed to solve crimes continues and grows. But this understanding of how science works in the forensic laboratory is filtered through the fictional worlds of books and television. How is science really used to fight crime? What techniques are used to catch criminals and free the innocent? Forensic scientists work with police, investigators, medical personnel, attorneys, and others to uphold justice, but their methods are often misunderstood, overestimated, underestimated, revered, or disputed. Here, the author answers many common questions about forensic science: How is the science conducted and by whom? What are the real limits, and real benefits, of forensic science? What new techniques are emerging to catch 21st-century criminals? Readers are treated to an insider's overview of the realties of forensic science. Forensic Science: Modern Methods of Solving Crime covers the basic concepts of forensic science and how it assists in criminal investigations. Starting with a brief history of forensic science, from its early days in Europe to the modern advances of today, the book describes each method and presents cases that highlight the applications of the methods. Houck profiles pioneers in forensic science, offers an overview of such forensic topics as DNA, fibers, fingerprints, and firearms, takes readers through the collection and processing of evidence, and uses frequent examples and anecdotes to illustrate all the major areas of forensic science. This introduction to the field is a useful starting point for anyone wishing to learn more about the real world of forensic science.

Atmospheric and Space Flight Dynamics: Modeling and Simulation with MATLAB® and Simulink®

Ashish Tewari “Atmospheric and Space Flight Dynamics: Modeling and Simulation with MATLAB® and Simulink®"
Birkhäuser Boston | 2006-12-01 | ISBN: 0817644377 | 556 pages | PDF | 7,5 MB

Modern aerospace vehicles, such as the space shuttle, other launch vehicles, and long-range ballistic missiles, do not discriminate between atmospheric and space flight. Most texts on flight dynamics, however, make this artificial distinction and therefore do not simultaneously cover aircraft and spacecraft. Bridging this gap in the literature, Atmospheric and Space Flight Dynamics is a unified presentation, demonstrating that the two disciplines have actually evolved from the same set of physical principles.
Key features:
* Introduction to a broad range of modern topics in an accessible, yet mathematically rigorous presentation
* Many numerical examples and simulations utilizing MATLAB® and Simulink® fully integrated throughout the work
* Simulations presentedusually not found in books on the same topicare both realistic and instructive
* Examples allow readers to easily build their own simulations for aircraft, missiles, launch vehicles, reentry vehicles, and spacecraft
* Software is used as an instructional, hands-on tool, moving away from the "cookbook" approach found in other works
* Supplementary material and MATLAB/Simulink code available at http://home.iitk.ac.in/~ashtew/index_files/page0009.htm
* Numerous illustrations and end-of-chapter exercises
* Separate solutions manual available to instructors upon request
Primarily useful as a textbook for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate-level students, the work is also an excellent reference or self-study guide for researchers and practitioners in aerospace engineering, aviation, mechanical engineering, dynamics, astrodynamics, aeronautics, and astronautics.
