    Chemical Theory and Multiscale Simulation in Biomolecules: From Principles to Case Studies helps readers understand what simulation is, what information modeling of biomolecules can provide, and how to compare this information with experiments. Beginning with an introduction to computational theory for modeling, the book goes on to describe how to control the conditions of modeling systems and possible strategies for time-cost savings in computation. Part Two further outlines key methods, with step-by-step guidance supporting readers in studying and practicing simulation processes. Part Three then shows how these theories are controlled and applied in practice, through examples and case studies on varied applications. This book is a practical guide for new learners, supporting them in learning and applying molecular modeling in practice, whilst also providing more experienced readers with the knowledge needed to gain a deep understanding of the theoretical background behind key methods.

  • Early Continent Evolution of the North China Craton

    • 1st Edition
    • Mingguo Zhai + 3 more
    • English
    Early Continent Evolution of the North China Craton discusses the tectono-thermal regimes of the early continental crust in the North China Craton (NCC), from the Hadean to the early Paleoproterozoic, reconstructing the evolutional framework and facilitating comprehensive understanding of the early continent evolution of the NCC. The book systematically summarizes the Neoarchean metamorphism of the NCC and discusses the implications for the tectonic models of the NCC through compiling evolutional information of the Hadean to the early Paleoproterozoic sequences in the NCC.Researchers, academics, and students in geology (especially Precambrian Geology), geomorphology, geophysics, and geological engineering will benefit from using this book in applying tectonic models to other cratonic blocks globally, and will understand evolutional information of the largest and oldest cratonic block in China.

    Nanotechnology for Hydrogen Production and Storage: Nanostructured Materials and Interfaces presents an evaluation of the various nano-based systems for hydrogen generation and storage. With a focus on challenges and recent developments, the book analyzes nanomaterials with the potential to boost hydrogen production and improve storage. It assesses the potential improvements to industrially important hydrogen production technologies by way of better surface-interface control through nanostructures of strategical composites of metal oxides, metal chalcogenides, plasmonic metals, conducting polymers, carbonaceous materials, and bio-interfaces with different types of algae and bacteria.In addition, the efficiency of various photochemical water splitting processes to generate renewable hydrogen energy are reviewed, with a focus on natural water splitting via photosynthesis, and the use of various metallic and non-metallic nanomaterials in anthropogenic/artifi... water splitting processes is analyzed. Finally, the potential of nanomaterials in enhancing hydrogen generation in dark- and photo-fermentative organisms is explored, along with various nano-based systems for hydrogen generation and associated significant challenges and advances in biohydrogen research and development.
