| Title | Jamming and Glass Transitions : In Mean-Field Theories and Beyond |
| Author(s) | Altieri, Ada |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2019. |
| Description | XXI, 220 p. 39 illus., 28 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The work described in this book originates from a major effort to develop a fundamental theory of the glass and the jamming transitions. The first chapters guide the reader through the phenomenology of supercooled liquids and structural glasses and provide the tools to analyze the most frequently used models able to predict the complex behavior of such systems. A fundamental outcome is a detailed theoretical derivation of an effective thermodynamic potential, along with the study of anomalous vibrational properties of sphere systems. The interested reader can find in these pages a clear and deep analysis of mean-field models as well as the description of advanced beyond-mean-field perturbative expansions. To investigate important second-order phase transitions in lattice models, the last part of the book proposes an innovative theoretical approach, based on a multi-layer construction. The different methods developed in this thesis shed new light on important connections among constraint satisfaction problems, jamming and critical phenomena in complex systems, and lay part of the groundwork for a complete theory of amorphous solids |

| Title | Constitution and Magnetism of Iron and its Alloys |
| Author(s) | Pepperhoff, Werner;Acet, Mehmet |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2001. |
| Description | VIII, 226 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Iron played an important role in the development of the industrial society and has not lost any of its significance since today. This book provides the foundations of understanding the physical nature of iron and its alloys. Basics and recent developments concerning its constitution and magnetism are presented as well as its thermal properties. The exceptional role of iron with its wide spectrum of most different technological and physical properties relies on its versatility, its polymorphism of its crystal structure and its magnetism. Therefore it is the aim of the book to link together the constitution and magnetism of iron |

| Title | Non-Crystalline Chalcogenicides |
| Author(s) | Popescu, M.A |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 2000. |
| Description | VIII, 378 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The earliest experimental data on an oxygen-free glass have been published by Schulz-Sellack in 1870 [1]. Later on, in 1902, Wood [2], as well as Meier in 1910 [3], carried out the first researches on the optical properties of vitreous selenium. The interest in the glasses that exhibit transparency in the infrared region of the optical spectrum rose at the beginning of the twentieth century. Firstly were investigated the heavy metal oxides and the transparency limit was extended from (the case of the classical oxide glasses) up to wavelength. In order to extend this limit above the scientists tried the chemical compositions based on the elements of the sixth group of the Periodic Table, the chalcogens: sulphur, selenium and tellurium. The systematic research in the field of glasses based on chalcogens, called chalcogenide glasses, started at the middle of our century. In 1950 Frerichs [4] investigated the glass and published the paper: ???New optical glasses transparent in infrared up to 12 . Several years later he started the study of the selenium glass and prepared several binary glasses with sulphur [5]. Glaze and co-workers [6] developed in 1957 the first method for the preparation of the glass at the industrial scale, while Winter-Klein [7] published reports on numerous chalcogenides prepared in the vitreous state |

| Title | Modeling of Carbon Nanotubes, Graphene and their Composites |
| Author(s) | Tserpes, Konstantinos I;Silvestre, Nuno |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2014. |
| Description | XII, 332 p. 177 illus., 43 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book contains??ten??chapters,??authored by world experts in the field of simulation at nano-scale and aims to demonstrate the potentialities of computational techniques to model the mechanical behavior of nano-materials, such as carbon nanotubes, graphene and their composites. A large part of the research currently being conducted in the fields of materials science and engineering mechanics is devoted to carbon nanotubes, graphene and their applications. In this process, computational modeling is a very attractive research tool due to the difficulties in manufacturing and testing of nano-materials. Both atomistic modeling methods, such as molecular mechanics and molecular dynamics, and continuum modeling methods are being intensively used. Continuum modeling offers significant advantages over atomistic modeling such as the reduced computational effort, the capability of modeling complex structures and bridging different analysis scales, thus enabling modeling from the nano- to the macro-scale. On the other hand, atomistic modeling is very accurate and can provide detailed information about the effects of material structure such as the interfaces and functionalization |

| 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 | Microstructuring of Glasses |
| Author(s) | H??lsenberg, Dagmar;Harnisch, Alf;Bismarck, Alexander |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2008. |
| Description | XX, 326 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | As microstructured glass becomes increasingly important for microsystems technology, the main application fields include micro-fluidic systems, micro-analysis systems, sensors, micro-actuators and implants. And, because glass has quite distinct properties from silicon, PMMA and metals, applications exist where only glass devices meet the requirements. The main advantages of glass derive from its amorphous nature, the precondition for its - theoretically - direction-independent geometric structurability. Microstructuring of Glasses deals with the amorphous state, various glass compositions and their properties, the interactions between glasses and the electromagnetic waves used to modify it. Also treated in detail are methods for influencing the geometrical microstructure of glasses by mechanical, chemical, thermal, optical, and electrical treatment, and the methods and equipment required to produce actual microdevices |
