Nonlinear Optics in Semiconductors II Since its inception in 1966, the series of numbered volumes known as Semiconductors and Semimetals has distinguished itself through the careful selection of well-known authors, editors, and contributors. The 'Willardson and Beer' Series, as it is widely known, has succeeded in publishing numerous landmark volumes and chapters. Not only did many of these volumes make an impact at the time of their publication, but they continue to be well-cited years after their original release. Recently, Professor Eicke R. Weber of the University of California at Berkeley joined as a co-editor of the series. Professor Weber, a well-known expert in the field of semiconductor materials, will further contribute to continuing the series tradition of publishing timely, highly relevant, and long-impacting volumes. Some of the recent volumes, such as Hydrogen in Semiconductors, Imperfections in III/V Materials, Epitaxial Microstructures, High-Speed Heterostructure Devices, Oxygen in Silicon, and others promise that this tradition will be maintained and even expanded.

Multiphase Flow and Fluidization As a reference tool for engineers and as an advanced text for graduate students, Multiphase Flow and Fluidization takes the reader beyond the theoretical to show how multiphase flow equations provide practical solutions to industrial fluidization problems. Written to advance progress in the emerging science of multiphase flow, this book begins with the development of basic conservation laws and moves on through kinetic theory. It clarifies many physical concepts (such as particulate viscosity and solids pressure) and introduces the new dependent variable - the volume fraction of the dispersed phase. Exercises are provided for further study, and lead into applications not covered in the text itself. This book is the first to apply kinetic theory to flow particulates. It treats fluidization as a branch of transport phenomena and shows how to do transient, multidimensional simulation of multiphase processes. There is much new material here, from such theoretical matters as well-posedness and numerical stability of multiphase equations, to such practical ones as the origin of bubbles and the concept of critical granular flow. - Category: Books Reading - New Item: 461120573

Population Limitation in Birds This book meets the demand for a comprehensive introduction to understanding the processes of population limitation. Recognized world-wide as a respected biologist and communicator, Dr. Ian Newton has now written a clear and detailed treatise on local scale population limiting factors in birds. It is based almost entirely on results from field studies, though it is set in a contemporary theoretical framework. The 16 chapters fall under three major section headings: Behavior and Density Regulation; Natural limiting Factors; and Human Impacts. Population Limitation in Birds serves as a needed resource expanding on Dr. David Lack's research in this area of ornithology in the 1950's. It includes numerous line diagrams and beautiful illustrations by acclaimed wildlife artist Keith Brockie. - Books Reading - New - 461120669
