Books by Keyword: Segregation

Description: This volume was designed to capture a wide cross-section of contemporary international diffusion research by presenting advances in both experimental aspects and modelling of diffusion at both basic science and applied levels.

Description: The present volume attempts to capture some of this excitement by providing a cross-section of contemporary research in mass transfer and thermal processes in the modern engineering materials and technologies. The volume spans both experiment and modelling and covers both basic research and applied research. Topics covered are broad, covering heat exchange in porous media to the drying of sisal fibre, from the role of nanoparticles for enhanced oil recovery to the atomistic of grain boundary diffusion and segregation.

Description: This special collection concentrates on three basic topics, the 35 peer-reviewed papers being grouped into: 1. Grain Boundary Diffusion, Segregation and Stresses, 2. Bulk Diffusion and Phase Formation and 3. Diffusion-Controlled Processes. It provides succinct and timely coverage of these topics.

The inspiration for this book was to gather together the efforts of those physicists, materials scientists/engineers and other scientists who are carrying out interdisciplinary research into multiscale modelling of time-evolving phenomena in materials.

Description: This ninth volume in the series covering the latest results in the field includes abstracts of papers which appeared between the publication of Annual Retrospective VIII (Volumes 245-246) and the end of January 2007 (journal availability permitting).

Description: This book offers a contemporary overview of nanodiffusion, and details the present state of this rapidly growing field. New conceptions of basic aspects of the diffusion processes occurring at the nanoscale are treated, and many useful insights and results concerning diffusion kinetics in various types of technologically important nanomaterials are presented. The latter include: nanomagnetic materials, consisting of a mixture of magnetic nanoparticles in a residual amorphous magnetic matrix; thin films, bi-layers and multilayers for X-ray or neutron mirrors and for magneto-electronic applications such as GMR; and semiconductor nanosystems for many current and future applications.

Description: This volume contains the proceedings of the conference, 'Diffusion, Segregation and Stresses in Materials (DSS-02)', which was held at the Moscow State Institute of Steel and Alloys, Moscow, Russia. The participants, all acknowledged experts in their field, were drawn from 15 countries and interchanged their expertise via 90 scheduled lectures, plus poster sessions and many informal discussions.

Description: This latest annual look back at the subject includes review papers on some applications of mechanical spectroscopy and magnetic relaxation to the monitoring of diffusion, on the effect of positron diffusion upon their annihilation, on the wind force in electromigration, on the creep of nanocrystalline metals (as related to grain-boundary diffusion) and on self-interstitial atom behaviour at high temperatures in dense metals.
