  • Stress, Vibration, and Wave Analysis in Aerospace Composites

    SHM and NDE Applications
    • 1st Edition
    • Victor Giurgiutiu
    • English
    Stress, Vibration, and Wave Analysis in Aerospace Composites: SHM and NDE Applications presents a unified approach to studying and understanding stress, vibrations and waves in composite materials used in aerospace applications. Combining topics that are typically found across an array of various sources, the book starts by looking at the properties of various composite materials, progresses to coverage of an analysis of stress, vibration and waves and then concludes with a discussion of various structural health monitoring (SHM) and nondestructive evaluation (NDE) techniques and applications based on the analysis developed earlier in the book. Every chapter of the book contains a variety of worked-out examples to illustrate and tie together underlying theory and specific applications. The MATLAB code used to generate these examples is available on the book’s companion website, as are solution documents and additional MATLAB code for problems and exercises featured in each chapter.

    Antioxidants Effects in Health: The Bright and the Dark Side examines the role that antioxidants play in a variety of health and disease situations. The book discusses antioxidants’ historical evolution, their oxidative stress, and contains a detailed approach of 1) endogenous antioxidants, including endogenous sources, mechanisms of action, beneficial and detrimental effects on health, in vitro evidence, animal studies and clinical studies; 2) synthetic antioxidants, including sources, chemistry, bioavailability, legal status, mechanisms of action, beneficial and detrimental effects on health, in vitro evidence, animal studies and clinical studies; and 3) natural antioxidants, including sources, chemistry, bioavailability, mechanisms of action, possible prooxidant activity; beneficial and detrimental effects on health, in vitro evidence, animal studies and clinical studies. Throughout the boo, the relationship of antioxidants with different beneficial and detrimental effects are examined, and the current controversies and future perspectives are addressed and explored. Antioxidants Effects in Health: The Bright and the Dark Side evaluates the current scientific evidence on antioxidant topics, focusing on endogenous antioxidants, naturally occurring antioxidants and synthetic antioxidants. It will be a helpful resource for pharmaceutical scientists, health professionals, those studying natural chemistry, phytochemistry, pharmacognosy, natural product synthesis, and experts in formulation of herbal and natural pharmaceuticals.

  • Magnetic Ferrites and Related Nanocomposites

    • 1st Edition
    • Ali Ghasemi
    • English
    As a fast-emerging and growing class of magnetic materials, ferrites have generated an increasing amount of interest for providing specific magnetic properties through controlled mixture in composites. The study of magnetic ferrite nanocomposites requires a multidisciplinary approach, involving novel synthesis techniques and an understanding of solid-state physics, electronic engineering, and material science. Magnetic Ferrites and Related Nanocomposites covers recent trends of various types of ferrite nanocomposites and evaluating the mechanisms for interpreting static and dynamic magnetic properties. Sections cover the fundamentals of magnetism, introducing different kinds of ferrites, ferrite characterization techniques, magneto-electric ferrite nanocomposites, exchange spring ferrite nanocomposites, shielding effectiveness and microwave absorption characteristics of ferrite-carbon materials, photocatalytic application of ferrite nanocomposites, and novel synthesis techniques for fabricating ferrite in nanoparticles, bulks, thin films, and nanofiber configurations. This book is an important reference for scientists, researchers, graduate students, and practitioners active in this field in order to broaden their understanding of ferrite nanocomposites and their impact on modern technology.
