Principles of Inorganic Materials Design

Principles of Inorganic Materials Design
Wiley | 2010-02-02 | ISBN: 0470404035 | 585 pages | File type: PDF | 7 mb
Unique interdisciplinary approach enables readers to overcome complex design challenges Integrating concepts from chemistry, physics, materials science, metallurgy, and ceramics, Principles of Inorganic Materials Design, Second Edition offers a unique interdisciplinary approach that enables readers to grasp the complexities of inorganic materials. The book provides a solid foundation in the principles underlying the design of inorganic materials and then offers the guidance and tools needed to create specific materials with desired macroscopic properties.

Principles of Inorganic Materials Design, Second Edition begins with an introduction to structure at the microscopic level and then progresses to smaller-length scales. Next, the authors explore both phenomenological and atomistic-level descriptions of transport properties, the metal�Cnonmetal transition, magnetic and dielectric properties, optical properties, and mechanical properties. Lastly, the book covers phase equilibria, synthesis, and nanomaterials.

Special features include:

*

Introduction to the CALPHAD method, an important, but often overlooked topic
*

More worked examples and new end-of-chapter problems to help ensure mastery of the concepts
*

Extensive references to the literature for more in-depth coverage of particular topics
*

Biographies introducing twentieth-century pioneers in the field of inorganic materials science

This Second Edition has been thoroughly revised and updated, incorporating the latest findings and featuring expanded discussions of such key topics as microstructural aspects, density functional theory, dielectric properties, mechanical properties, and nanomaterials.

Armed with this text, students and researchers in inorganic and physical chemistry, physics, materials science, and engineering will be equipped to overcome today's complex design challenges. This textbook is recommended for senior-level undergraduate and graduate course work.

Electrochemistry of Metal Chalcogenides

Mirtat Bouroushian, quot;Electrochemistry of Metal Chalcogenidesquot;
Springer | 2010 | ISBN: 3642039669 | 374 pages | File type: PDF | 10 mb
The author provides a unified account of the electrochemical material science of metal chalcogenide (MCh) compounds and alloys with regard to their synthesis, processing and applications.

Starting with the chemical fundamentals of the chalcogens and their major compounds, the initial part of the book includes a systematic description of the MCh solids on the basis of the Periodic Table in terms of their structures and key properties. This is followed by a general discussion on the electrochemistry of chalcogen species, and the principles underlying the electrochemical formation of inorganic compounds/alloys. The core of the book offers an insight into available experimental results and inferences regarding the electrochemical preparation and microstructural control of conventional and novel MCh structures. It also aims to survey their photoelectrochemistry, both from a material-oriented point of view and as connected to specific processes such as photocatalysis and solar energy conversion.

Finally, the book illustrates the relevance of MCh materials to various applications of electrochemical interest such as (electro)catalysis in fuel cells, energy storage with intercalation electrodes, and ion sensing.

Electrical and Electronic Principles and Technology, 3 Ed

John Bird, quot;Electrical and Electronic Principles and Technology, 3 Edquot;
MgH | 2007 | ISBN: 0750685565 | 432 pages | File type: PDF | 3,6 mb
In this book John Bird introduces electrical principles and technology through examples rather than theory - enabling students to develop a sound understanding of the principles needed by technicians in fields such as electrical engineering, electronics and telecommunications. No previous background in engineering is assumed, making this an ideal text for vocational courses at Level 2 and 3, foundation degree and introductory courses for undergraduates.

The book presents a logical topic progression rather than following the structure of a particular syllabus. However, the coverage of this new edition has been brought fully in line with the electrical and electronics units of the 2007 BTEC National specification. It is also designed to cover the requirements of the BTEC First specifications.

New material in this third edition includes brand new chapters on semiconductor diodes and transistors as well as added sections on batteries, fuel cells and alternative and renewable energies, relative and absolute voltages, self and mutual inductance, and virtual test and measuring instruments.

Support material for tutors is available as a free download at http://textbooks.elsevier.com:

* Instructor's manual with full solutions and suggested marking scheme for all 7 revision tests in the book

* Solutions manual with worked solutions for about 400 of the further problems in the book

* Electronic files for all illustrations in the book

* New colour layout helps navigation and highlights key learning points, formulae and exercises
* 400 worked problems and over 1,300 questions, all with answers
* Fully up to date with the 2007 BTEC National specification
* Free lecturer support material available via textbooks.elsevier.com

Power Electronics Semiconductor Devices

Robert Perret, quot;Power Electronics Semiconductor Devicesquot;
Wiley-ISTE | 2009 | ISBN: 1848210647 | 576 pages | File type: PDF | 10 mb
This book relates the recent developments in several key electrical engineering RD labs, concentrating on power electronics switches and their use. The first sections deal with key power electronics technologies, MOSFETs and IGBTs, including series and parallel associations. The next section examines silicon carbide and its potentiality for power electronics applications and its present limitations. Then, a dedicated section presents the capacitors, key passive components in power electronics, followed by a modeling method allowing the stray inductances computation, necessary for the precise simulation of switching waveforms. Thermal behavior associated with power switches follows, and the last part proposes some interesting prospectives associated to Power Electronics integration.
