  • Tensors for Physics

    by Siegfried Hess ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book presents the science of tensors in a didactic way. The various types and ranks of tensors and the physical basis is presented. Cartesian Tensors are needed for the description of directional phenomena in many branches of physics and for the characterization the anisotropy of material properties. The first sections of the book provide an introduction to the vector and tensor algebra and ... Read more

  • Non-equilibrium Phenomena in Confined Soft Matter

    Irreversible Adsorption, Physical Aging and Glass Transition at the Nanoscale

    Edited by Simone Napolitano ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book deals with those properties of non-equilibrium soft matter that deviate greatly from the bulk properties as a result of nanoscale confinement.The ultimate physical origin of these confinement effects is not yet fully understood. At the state of the art, the discussion on confinement effects focuses on equilibrium properties, finite size effects and interfacial interactions. However this ... Read more

  • Colloids and the Depletion Interaction

    by Henk N.W. Lekkerkerker, Remco Tuinier ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Colloids are submicron particles that are ubiquitous in nature (milk, clay, blood) and industrial products (paints, drilling fluids, food). In recent decades it has become clear that adding depletants such as polymers or small colloids to colloidal dispersions allows one to tune the interactions between the colloids and in this way control the stability, structure and rheological properties of ...

  • Dynamical Heterogeneities in Glasses, Colloids, and Granular Media

    Edited by Ludovic Berthier, Giulio Biroli, Jean-Philippe Bouchaud, Luca Cipelletti, Wim van Saarloos ...
    Series Book 150 - International Series of Monographs on Physics
    Most of the solid materials we use in everyday life, from plastics to cosmetic gels exist under a non-crystalline, amorphous form: they are glasses. Yet, we are still seeking a fundamental explanation as to what glasses really are and to why they form. In this book, we survey the most recent theoretical and experimental research dealing with glassy physics, from molecular to colloidal glasses and ... Read more

  • Transport Properties in Non-Equilibrium and Anomalous Systems

    by Dario Villamaina ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The study of fluctuations in statistical physics has a long history, and a general theory is well established, connecting fluctuations to response properties of equilibrium systems. Remarkably, this framework fails as soon as some current is flowing across the system, driving it out of equilibrium.The presence of currents is quite common in nature and produces rich phenomena which are far from ...
