This handbook is designed as a stand-alone guide to thermoset resins, an important class of polymer materials. It begins with a general introduction to thermoset resins - including network concept, curing, processing, and testing - and ends with thermoset nanocomposites, a subject of much current interest.
This book contains everything engineers and designers need to make sound technical judgments about which stainless steels to use and how to use them. Extensive composition and property information on all five families of stainless steel, including newest alloys is included. Coverage addresses selection for corrosion resistance, processing, and major applications, FREE access to Thermo-Calc software for 3 element phase diagram simulation.
In the Mind's Eye: Visual Thinkers, Gifted People With Learning Difficulties, Computer Images and the Ironies of Creativity
The computer-generated information superhighway could launch a new renaissance of creativity for millions of visual thinkers! Some of the greatest minds in politics, science, literature, and the arts experienced undetected learning disabilities that stopped them from assimilating information the same way as their peers. Some of our most original intellects relied heavily on visual modes of thought, processing information in terms of images instead of words or numbers.
Discontinuous Galerkin Methods: Theory, Compuration and Applications
This volume contains current progress of a new class of finite element method, the Discontinuous Galerkin Method (DGM), which has been under rapid developments recently and has found its use very quickly in such diverse applications as aeroacoustics, semi-conductor device simulation, turbomachinery, turbulent flows, materials processing, Magneto-hydro-dynamics, plasma simulations and image processing.
This book reviews interdisciplinary work on the mental processing of syntax and morphology. It focuses on the fundamental questions at the centre of this research, for example whether language processing proceeds in a serial or a parallel manner; which areas of the brain support the processing of syntactic and morphological information; whether there are neurophysiological correlates of language processing; and the degree to which neurolinguistic findings on syntactic and morphological processing are consistent with theoretical conceptions of syntax and morphology.
