  • Acoustic, Electromagnetic, Neutron Emissions from Fracture and Earthquakes

    Edited by Alberto Carpinteri, Giuseppe Lacidogna, Amedeo Manuello ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This book presents the relevant consequences of recently discovered and interdisciplinary phenomena, triggered by local mechanical instabilities. In particular, it looks at emissions from nano-scale mechanical instabilities such as fracture, turbulence, buckling and cavitation, focussing on vibrations at the TeraHertz frequency and Piezonuclear reactions. Future applications for this work could ... Read more

  • Fracture and Complexity

    One Century since Griffith’s Milestone

    by Alberto Carpinteri ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    The book explores the two opposite natural trends of composite systems: (i) order and structure emerging from heterogeneity and randomness, and (ii) instability and chaos arising from simple nonlinear rules. Providing insights into the rapidly growing field of complexity sciences, the book focuses on the role of complexity in fracture mechanics. It firstly discusses the occurrence of self ... Read more

  • Terahertz Phonons and Nanomechanical Instabilities

    Unlocking LENR in Condensed Matter with Insights into Geo, Astro, Electro, and Biochemical Systems

    by Alberto Carpinteri ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This open access book explores tiny and high-frequency vibrations called terahertz phonons, which happen in solids and fluids due to small mechanical changes. It shows how these vibrations can trigger nuclear reactions in chemical elements like iron and calcium, releasing neutrons and alpha particles. These discoveries help explain old mysteries like carbon pollution in early Earth, how oceans ... Read more
