| Title | Avalanches in Functional Materials and Geophysics |
| Author(s) | Salje, Ekhard K.H;Saxena, Avadh;Planes, Antoni |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2017. |
| Description | XVII, 298 p. 171 illus., 80 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book provides the state-of-the art of the present understanding of avalanche phenomena in both functional materials and geophysics. The main emphasis of the book is analyzing these apparently different problems within the common perspective of out-of-equilibrium phenomena displaying spatial and temporal complexity that occur in a broad range of scales. Many systems, when subjected to an external force, respond intermittently in the form of avalanches that often span over a wide range of sizes, energies and durations. This is often related to a class of critical behavior characterized by the absence of characteristic scales. Typical examples are magnetization processes, plastic deformation and failure occuring in functional materials. These phenomena share many similarities with seismicity arising from the earth crust failure due to stresses that originate from plate tectonics |

| Title | Disorder and Strain-Induced Complexity in Functional Materials |
| Author(s) | Kakeshita, Tomoyuki;Fukuda, Takashi;Saxena, Avadh;Planes, Antoni |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2012. |
| Description | XVI, 308 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book brings together an emerging consensus on our understanding of the complex functional materials including ferroics, perovskites, multiferroics, CMR and high-temperature superconductors. The common theme is the existence of many competing ground states and frustration as a collusion of spin, charge, orbital and lattice degrees of freedom in the presence of disorder and (both dipolar and elastic) long-range forces. An important consequence of the complex unit cell and the competing interactions is that the emergent materials properties are very sensitive to external fields thus rendering these materials with highly desirable, technologically important applications enabled by cross-response |

| Title | Magnetism and Structure in Functional Materials |
| Author(s) | Planes, Antoni;Ma??osa, Llu??s;Saxena, Avadh |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2005. |
| Description | XVIII, 254 p. 129 illus : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Magnetism and Structure in Functional Materials addresses three distinct but related topics: (i) magnetoelastic materials such as magnetic martensites and magnetic shape memory alloys, (ii) the magnetocaloric effect related to magnetostructural transitions, and (iii) colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) and related magnanites. The goal is to identify common underlying principles in these classes of materials that are relevant for optimizing various functionalities. The emergence of apparently different magnetic/structural phenomena in disparate classes of materials clearly points to a need for common concepts in order to achieve a broader understanding of the interplay between magnetism and structure in this general class of new functional materials exhibiting ever more complex microstructure and function. The topic is interdisciplinary in nature and the contributors correspondingly include physicists, materials scientists and engineers. Likewise the book will appeal to scientists from all these areas |
