| Title | Coherent Structures in Granular Crystals : From Experiment and Modelling to Computation and Mathematical Analysis |
| Author(s) | Chong, Christopher;Kevrekidis, Panayotis G |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2018. |
| Description | XII, 94 p. 35 illus., 29 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book summarizes a number of fundamental developments at the interface of granular crystals and the mathematical and computational analysis of some of their key localized nonlinear wave solutions. The subject presents a blend of the appeal of granular crystals as a prototypical engineering tested for a variety of diverse applications, the novelty in the nonlinear physics of its coherent structures, and the tractability of a series of mathematical and computational techniques to analyse them. While the focus is on principal one-dimensional solutions such as shock waves, traveling waves, and discrete breathers, numerous extensions of the discussed patterns, e.g., in two dimensions, chains with defects, heterogeneous settings, and other recent developments are discussed. The book appeals to researchers in the field, as well as for graduate and advanced undergraduate students. It will be of interest to mathematicians, physicists and engineers alike |

| 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 | The Automated Design of Materials Far From Equilibrium |
| Author(s) | Miskin, Marc Z |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2016. |
| Description | XIX, 89 p. 39 illus., 7 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This thesis conceptualizes and implements a new framework for designing materials that are far from equilibrium. Starting with state-of-the-art optimization engines, it describes an automated system that makes use of simulations and 3D printing to find the material that best performs a user-specified goal. Identifying which microscopic features produce a desired macroscopic behavior is a problem at the forefront of materials science. This task is materials design, and within it, new goals and challenges have emerged from tailoring the response of materials far from equilibrium. These materials hold promising properties such as robustness, high strength, and self-healing. Yet without a general theory to predict how these properties emerge, designing and controlling them presents a complex and important problem. As proof of concept, the thesis shows how to design the behavior of granular materials, i.e., collections of athermal, macroscopic identical objects, by identifying the particle shapes that form the stiffest, softest, densest, loosest, most dissipative and strain-stiffening aggregates. More generally, the thesis shows how these results serve as prototypes for problems at the heart of materials design, and advocates the perspective that machines are the key to turning complex material forms into new material functions |

| Title | Theoretical Thermotics : Transformation Thermotics and Extended Theories for Thermal Metamaterials |
| Author(s) | Huang, Ji-Ping |
| Publication | Singapore, Springer Singapore, 2020. |
| Description | XVI, 256 p. 80 illus., 75 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book focuses on theoretical thermotics, the theory of transformation thermotics and its extended theories for the active control of macroscopic thermal phenomena of artificial systems, which is in sharp contrast to classical thermodynamics comprising the four thermodynamic laws for the passive description of macroscopic thermal phenomena of natural systems. The book covers the basic concepts and mathematical methods, which are necessary to understand thermal problems extensively investigated in physics, but also in other disciplines of engineering and materials. The analyses rely on models solved by analytical techniques accompanied with computer simulations and laboratory experiments. This book serves both as a reference work for senior researchers and a study text for zero beginners |

| Title | Topology in Magnetism |
| Author(s) | Zang, Jiadong;Cros, Vincent;Hoffmann, Axel |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2018. |
| Description | XIV, 416 p. 160 illus., 146 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book presents both experimental and theoretical aspects of topology in magnetism. It first discusses how the topology in real space is relevant for a variety of magnetic spin structures, including domain walls, vortices, skyrmions, and dynamic excitations, and then focuses on the phenomena that are driven by distinct topology in reciprocal momentum space, such as anomalous and spin Hall effects, topological insulators, and Weyl semimetals. Lastly, it examines how topology influences dynamic phenomena and excitations (such as spin waves, magnons, localized dynamic solitons, and Majorana fermions). The book also shows how these developments promise to lead the transformative revolution of information technology. |

| Title | Lock-in Thermography : Basics and Use for Evaluating Electronic Devices and Materials |
| Author(s) | Breitenstein, Otwin;Warta, Wilhelm;Schubert, Martin C |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2018. |
| Description | XXI, 321 p. 126 illus., 68 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book discusses lock-in thermography (LIT) as a dynamic variant of the widely known IR thermography. It focuses on applications to electronic devices and materials, but also includes chapters addressing non-destructive evaluation. Periodically modulating heat sources allows a much-improved signal-to-noise ratio (up to 1000x) and a far better lateral resolution compared to steady-state thermography. Reviewing various experimental approaches to LIT, particularly the commercial LIT systems available, this 3rd edition introduces new LIT applications, such as illuminated LIT applied to solar cells, non-thermal LIT lifetime mapping and LIT application to spin caloritronics problems. Numerous LIT investigation case studies are also included |

| Title | Terminal Ballistics |
| Author(s) | Rosenberg, Zvi;Dekel, Erez |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2020. |
| Description | XIII, 403 p. 321 illus., 37 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book comprehensively discusses essential aspects of terminal ballistics, combining experimental data, numerical simulations and analytical modeling. This new, 3rd edition reflects a number of recent advances in materials science, such as the use of polyurea layers on metallic plates in order to improve their ballistics. In addition, more data and analyses are now available on dwell and interface defeat in ceramic tiles coated with polymers, and are presented here. Lastly, the new edition includes new results, numerical and empirical, concerning the DIF issue in brittle solids, as well as the ???upturn??? phenomenon in the stress???strain curves of ductile solids.The author also added a new analysis of concrete penetration experiments which accounts for the scaling issue in this field. This is a new,and important, addition which we are happy to announce. They also added some new insights into the interaction of EEP???s and FSP projectiles with metallic plates. Throughout the book, the authors demonstrate the advantages of the simulation approach in terms of understanding the basic physics behind the phenomena investigated, making it a must-read for all professionals who need to understand terminal ballistics |
