Multiscale Modeling From Atoms to Devices

While the relevant features and properties of nanosystems necessarily depend on nanoscopic details their performance resides in the macroscopic world. To rationally develop and accurately predict performance of these systems we must tackle problems where multiple length and time scales are coupled. Rather than forcing a single modeling approach to predict an event it was not designed for a new paradigm must be employed: multiscale modeling. A brilliant solution to a pervasive problem Multiscale Modeling: From Atoms to Devices offers a number of approaches for which more than one scale is explicitly considered. It provides several alternatives from coarse-graining sampling of the atomic and mesoscale to Monte Carlo- and thermodynamic-based models that allow sampling of increasingly large scales up to multiscale models able to describe entire devices. Beginning with common techniques for coarse-graining the book discusses their theoretical background advantages and limitations. It examines the application-dependent parameterization characteristics of coarse-graining along with the finer-trains-coarser multiscale approach and describes three carefully selected examples in which the parameterization although based on the same principles depends on the actual application. The book considers the use of ab initio and density functional theory to obtain parameters needed for larger scale models the alternative use of density functional theory parameters in a Monte Carlo method and the use of ab initio and density functional theory as the atomistic technique underlying the calculation of thermodynamics properties of alloy phase stability. Highlighting one of the most challenging tasks for multiscale modelers Multiscale Modeling: From Atoms to Devices also presents modeling for nanocomposite materials using the embedded fiber finite element method (EFFEM). It emphasizes an ensemble Monte Carlo method to high field-charge transport problems and demonstrates the practical application of modern many-body quantum theories.

Analysis of Incomplete Multivariate Data

The last two decades have seen enormous developments in statistical methods for incomplete data. The EM algorithm and its extensions multiple imputation and Markov Chain Monte Carlo provide a set of flexible and reliable tools from inference in large classes of missing-data problems. Yet in practical terms those developments have had surprisingly little impact on the way most data analysts handle missing values on a routine basis. Analysis of Incomplete Multivariate Data helps bridge the gap between theory and practice making these missing-data tools accessible to a broad audience. It presents a unified Bayesian approach to the analysis of incomplete multivariate data covering datasets in which the variables are continuous categorical or both. The focus is applied where necessary to help readers thoroughly understand the statistical properties of those methods and the behavior of the accompanying algorithms. All techniques are illustrated with real data examples with extended discussion and practical advice. All of the algorithms described in this book have been implemented by the author for general use in the statistical languages S and S Plus. The software is available free of charge on the Internet.

Reliability of Structures

Reliability of Structures enables both students and practising engineers to appreciate how to value and handle reliability as an important dimension of structural design. It discusses the concepts of limit states and limit state functions and presents methodologies for calculating reliability indices and calibrating partial safety factors. It also supplies information on the probability distributions and parameters used to characterize both applied loads and member resistances. This revised and extended second edition contains more discussions of US and international codes and the issues underlying their development. There is significant revision and expansion of the discussion on Monte Carlo simulation along with more examples. The book serves as a textbook for a one-semester course for advanced undergraduates or graduate students or as a reference and guide to consulting structural engineers. Its emphasis is on the practical applications of structural reliability theory rather than the theory itself. Consequently probability theory is treated as a tool and enough is given to show the novice reader how to calculate reliability. Some background in structural engineering and structural mechanics is assumed. A solutions manual is available upon qualifying course adoption.

The Organic Chemistry of Sugars

Intrigued as much by its complex nature as by its outsider status in traditional organic chemistry the editors of The Organic Chemistry of Sugars compile a groundbreaking resource in carbohydrate chemistry that illustrates the ease at which sugars can be manipulated in a variety of organic reactions. Each chapter contains numerous examples demonstrating the methods and strategies that apply mainstream organic chemistry to the chemical modification of sugars.

Several chapters focus on reactions that convert sugars and carbohydrates to non-carbohydrate molecules including the substitution of sugar hydroxyl groups to new groups of synthetic or biological interest cyclitols and carbasugars as well as endocyclic heteroatom substitutions. Subsequent chapters demonstrate the use of sugars in chiral catalysis their roles as convenient starting materials for complex syntheses involving multiple stereogenic centers and syntheses for monosaccharides. The final chapters focus on new and emerging technologies including approaches to combinatorial carbohydrate chemistry the biological importance and chemical synthesis of glycopeptides and the medicinally significant concept of glycomimetics.

The Cathedrals of Pisa Siena and Florence A Thorough Inspection of the Medieval Construction Techniques

The construction techniques and concepts of the cathedrals of Pisa Siena and Florence are examined in detail based on new data and using a methodological architectural diagnostics approach. New detailed surveys carried out using often advanced tools together with direct and in-depth inspections to examine all parts of the buildings have enabled us to identify the building phases and the different construction techniques used over time. The information thereby acquired also formed the basis for a new interpretation of the archival documents. Accordingly the problems encountered and the solutions adopted in the three cathedrals have been understood: in Pisa the construction of the elliptical dome above the rectangular crossing consisting of six thin pillars below; in Siena the design changes from the first system in the 13th century to the ‘Duomo Nuovo’ and the structural adaptations following earthquakes; the specific construction solutions adopted in Florence during the instability encountered in the construction of the large vaults of the basilican body. The comparison of the three buildings in terms of architectural and construction solutions also revealed unexpected relationships between the construction events of Siena’s Duomo Nuovo and the solutions then used in the large basilican body of Santa Maria del Fiore. The methodology employed has led to an understanding of the actual structure of the three cathedrals an essential basis for a correct evaluation of the state of conservation of the churches for any restoration work. The book is aimed at scholars of architecture and ancient building structures graduate and postgraduate students and architects and engineers who plan architectural conservation and strengthening works for historical buildings. | The Cathedrals of Pisa Siena and Florence A Thorough Inspection of the Medieval Construction Techniques
