Chemical Applications of Symmetry and Group Theory

Chemical Applications of Symmetry and Group Theory

As the structure and behavior of molecules and crystals depend on their different symmetries group theory becomes an essential tool in many important areas of chemistry. It is a quite powerful theoretical tool to predict many basic as well as some characteristic properties of molecules. Whereas quantum mechanics provide solutions of some chemical problems on the basis of complicated mathematics group theory puts forward these solutions in a very simplified and fascinating manner. Group theory has been successfully applied to many chemical problems. Students and teachers of chemical sciences have an invisible fear from this subject due to the difficulty with the mathematical jugglery. An active sixth dimension is required to understand the concept as well as to apply it to solve the problems of chemistry. This book avoids mathematical complications and presents group theory so that it is accessible to students as well as faculty and researchers. Chemical Applications of Symmetry and Group Theory discusses different applications to chemical problems with suitable examples. The book develops the concept of symmetry and group theory representation of group its applications to I. R. and Raman spectroscopy U. V spectroscopy bonding theories like molecular orbital theory ligand field theory hybridization and more. Figures are included so that reader can visualize the symmetry symmetry elements and operations.

Foundations of Nanotechnology Volume Three Mechanics of Carbon Nanotubes

Foundations of Nanotechnology Volume Three Mechanics of Carbon Nanotubes

In this research notes book the modelling of mechanical properties of CNT/polymer nanocomposites is presented. The book begins with the structural and intrinsic mechanical properties of CNTs and then introduces computational methods that have been applied to polymer nanocomposites covering from molecular scale (molecular dynamics Monte Carlo) microscale (Brownian dynamics dissipative particle dynamics lattice Boltzmann time-dependent Ginzburg–Landau method dynamic density functional theory method) to mesoscale and macroscale (micromechanics equivalent-continuum and self-similar approaches finite element method). Knowledge of the nature and mechanics of the length and orientation of nanotubes and load transfer between nanotubes and polymers is critical for the manufacturing of enhanced carbon nanotube polymer composites. It also enables the tailoring of the interface for specific applications or superior mechanical properties. This book discusses the state of these parameters in mechanics of carbon nanotube polymer composites and presents some directions for future research in this field. The book’s aim is to enhance current knowledge in this area to support researchers in carbon nanotubes and help them choose the appropriate modelling tool for accomplishing their research. | Foundations of Nanotechnology Volume Three Mechanics of Carbon Nanotubes

High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry and Its Diverse Applications Cutting-Edge Techniques and Instrumentation

High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry and Its Diverse Applications Cutting-Edge Techniques and Instrumentation

This informative book offers a wide range of knowledge on the technologies and applications of the cutting-edge field of high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) in different areas of analysis. HRMS has changed the nature of experimentation and investigation in so many analytical realms. Determining exact mass determination high resolution and specificity—via the special features provided by HRMS instruments—is now possible for determining the composition of the analyte of interest both qualitatively and quantitatively. High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry and Its Diverse Applications: Cutting-Edge Techniques and Instrumentation begins with an overview of the basic instrumentation techniques and goes on to present research on diverse new uses of HRMS in clinical testing such as for therapeutic drug designing discovery and development; in forensic studies and investigations; in quality management systems; for analysis of pesticides; for analysis of single cells; in analysis of fossil fuels; for use in space and planetary science; and more.

Conservation Tourism and Identity of Contemporary Community Art A Case Study of Felipe Seade’s Mural Allegory to Work”

Conservation Tourism and Identity of Contemporary Community Art A Case Study of Felipe Seade’s Mural Allegory to Work”

This unique volume aims to promote new models of sustainable management in the field of contemporary mural art. Cultural heritage has become an essential tool for society stressing the necessity to properly conserve cultural resources in order to maintain a socially economically and environmentally sustainable development. In this book the mural Allegory to Work by the artist Felipe Seade located in Uruguay is used as a case study. The work of Felipe Seade a prominent political mural artist of the twentieth century reflects the influence of Mexican heritage and the socio-political themes of that time which were commonly used by the Social Realism art movement. The authors look at the mural—and its restoration—through the lens of tourism globalization and new interest in cultural heritage. The book demonstrates that the restoration should be aware that the perspective of the protagonists must be incorporated in the intervention process. This first-of-its-kind volume brings together historical ethnographic tourism and scientific research that leads to a sustainable project from the point of view of identity economy politics and society. This volume with over 50 color illustrations and many black and white photos will be valuable for college and research libraries undergraduate and graduate students researchers and professors in the field of cultural heritage and art as well as those involved in community-based research. | Conservation Tourism and Identity of Contemporary Community Art A Case Study of Felipe Seade’s Mural Allegory to Work”

Mechanics of Finite Deformation and Fracture

Mechanics of Finite Deformation and Fracture

This important work covers the fundamentals of finite deformation in solids and constitutive relations for different types of stresses in large deformation of solids. In addition the book covers the fracture phenomena in brittle or quasi-brittle materials in which large deformation does not occur. The book provides a thorough understanding of fracture mechanics as well. Since mathematical proof with full derivation is demonstrated throughout the book readers will gain the skills to understand and drive the basic concepts on their own enabling them to put forward new ideas and solutions. Finite deformations in material can occur with change of geometry such that the deformed shape may not resemble the initial shape. Analyzing these types of deformations needs a particular mathematical tool that is always associated with tensor notations. In general the geometry may be non-orthogonal and the use of covariant and contra-variant tensor concepts to express the finite deformations and the associated mechanical strains are needed. In addition it is obvious that in large deformations there are several definitions for stress each depending on the frame of the stress definitions. The constitutive equations in material also depends on the type of stress that is introduced. In simulation of the material deformation components of the deformation tensor will be transformed from one frame to another either in orthogonal or in non-orthogonal coordinate of geometry. This informative book covers all this in detail. | Mechanics of Finite Deformation and Fracture
