Implementation challenges for high-temperature composites by Anthony G Evans( )

2 editions published in 1997 in English and held by 1,127 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

"Some issues that influence the implementation of Ceramic (CMC) and titanium (TMC) matrix composites in high-temperature systems are addressed. Commonalities and differences are broutht out by comparing and contrasting their themomechanical characteristics, with examples. Emphasis is given to the role of design and the use of mechanism-based models of material behavior. Factors addressed include the relative significance of thoughness and ductility for thermostructural applications, including their manifestation in the notch sensitivity. The detriments caused by anisotropy are examined, through discussions of mechanisms such as delamination in CMC's and transverse debonding in TMC's."--Page 1

Social and psychological factors in stress by Joseph Edward McGrath( Book )

3 editions published in 1970 in English and held by 482 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

The book is the product of a three-day conference on social and psychological factors in stress. The purpose of the conference was to identify crucial issues in this area of stress and to seek potential research approaches to those issues as the focus of the basic contract research program for the sponsor. The document gives a conceptual formulation for research on stress, major substantive and methodological issues, an integrative review of some research on social-psychological factors in stress, and a discussion of strategic considerations for future research on stress

Nonlinear Differential Equations and Nonlinear Mechanics provides information pertinent to nonlinear differential equations, nonlinear mechanics, control theory, and other related topics. This book discusses the properties of solutions of equations in standard form in the infinite time interval. <br>Organized into 49 chapters, this book starts with an overview of the characteristic types of differential equation systems with small parameters. This text then explains the structurally stable fields on a differentiable two manifold are the ones that exhibit the simplest features. Other chapters e

Decision modeling and behavior in complex and uncertain environments by Tamar Kugler( )

3 editions published in 2008 in English and held by 453 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

"This text is devoted to examining new research at the interface of operations research, behavioral and cognitive sciences, and decision analysis. In these 14 self-contained chapters, four themes emerge, providing the reader with a variety of perspectives both theoretic and applied to meet the challenges of devising models to understand the decision-making process."--Publisher's website

Fundamentals of gas-surface interactions by Howard Saltsburg( Book )

6 editions published in 1967 in English and held by 401 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Fundamentals of Gas-Surface Interactions presents the study of the surface itself and the study of the gas phase partner of the interaction in which physical or chemical transformation of the gas resulted from that interaction. This book discusses the study of the energy and momentum exchanges resulting from the gas-solid physical interaction in which either gas or solid phase properties can be measured.<br><br>Organized into three parts encompassing 33 chapters, this book begins with an overview of the different sensitive physical methods for the study of surface topography, surface defects
