  • Defects in Two-Dimensional Materials

    • 1st Edition
    • Rafik Addou + 1 more
    • English
    Defects in Two-Dimensional Materials addresses the fundamental physics and chemistry of defects in 2D materials and their effects on physical, electrical and optical properties. The book explores 2D materials such as graphene, hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) and transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD). This knowledge will enable scientists and engineers to tune 2D materials properties to meet specific application requirements. The book reviews the techniques to characterize 2D material defects and compares the defects present in the various 2D materials (e.g. graphene, h-BN, TMDs, phosphorene, silicene, etc.). As two-dimensional materials research and development is a fast-growing field that could lead to many industrial applications, the primary objective of this book is to review, discuss and present opportunities in controlling defects in these materials to improve device performance in general or use the defects in a controlled way for novel applications.

  • Biomass Processes and Chemicals

    • 1st Edition
    • James G. Speight
    • English
    Biomass Processes and Chemicals is written to assist the reader in understanding the options available for the production of chemicals from biomass. Petroleum-based and natural gas-based chemicals are well-established products that have served industry and consumers for more than one hundred years. However, time is running out and natural gas and petroleum are now being depleted. Thus, the need for alternative technologies to produce chemicals is necessary. Chemicals produced from sources are now coming into place for the establishment of a chemicals-from-bioma... industry, hence this book covers these advancements.

  • Production of Biodiesel from Non-Edible Sources

    Technological Updates
    • 1st Edition
    • A. Arumugam
    • English
    Production of Biodiesel from Non-Edible Sources: Technological Updates offers a step-by-step guide to the production of biodiesel, providing comparisons of existing methods, new and state-of-the-art technologies, and real-world examples of implementation. The book discusses all potential non-edible feedstocks for biodiesel production, providing their properties, availability, and processing, including deeper insights into kinetic models and simulation of biodiesel fermentation. Readers will gain knowledge of existing parameters and methods for biodiesel production, optimization, scale-up, and sustainability, along with guidance on the practical implementation of these methods and techniques. Finally, environmental sustainability, techno-economic analysis, and policymaking aspects are considered and put into the context of future prospects. This book offers a step-by-step guide for researchers and industry practitioners involved in bioenergy, renewable energy, biofuels production and bioconversion processes.

  • Molecular Dynamics Simulation

    Fundamentals and Applications
    • 1st Edition
    • Kun Zhou + 1 more
    • English
    Molecular Dynamic Simulation: Fundamentals and Applications explains the basic principles of MD simulation and explores its recent developments and roles in advanced modeling approaches. The implementation of MD simulation and its application to various aspects of materials science and engineering including mechanical, thermal, mass transportation, and physical/chemical reaction problems are illustrated. Innovative modeling techniques that apply MD to explore the mechanics of typical nanomaterials and nanostructures and to characterize crystalline, amorphous, and liquid systems are also presented. The rich research experience of the authors in MD simulation will ensure that the readers are provided with both an in-depth understanding of MD simulation and clear technical guidance.

  • Extremal Problems and Inequalities of Markov-Bernstein Type for Algebraic Polynomials

    • 1st Edition
    • Robert B. Gardner + 2 more
    • English
    Inequalities for polynomials and their derivatives are very important in many areas of mathematics, as well as in other computational and applied sciences; in particular they play a fundamental role in approximation theory. Here, not only Extremal Problems and Inequalities of Markov-Bernstein Type for Algebraic Polynomials, but also ones for trigonometric polynomials and related functions, are treated in an integrated and comprehensive style in different metrics, both on general classes of polynomials and on important restrictive classes of polynomials. Primarily for graduate and PhD students, this book is useful for any researchers exploring problems which require derivative estimates. It is particularly useful for those studying inverse problems in approximation theory.
