Изучение нелинейных явлений в многокомпонентных гетерогенных системах, находящихся в аморфном, нано- и микрокристаллическом состояниях, способствует установлению физической природы многих происходящих в них явлений и совершенствованию существующих теоретических положений, а следовательно, и разработке новых материалов, обладающих комплексом уникальных физических свойств. Для успешного решения этих…
A compendium of ready-made forms for managing every project in line with the latest PMBOK® Guide—Fifth Edition This valuable companion to the Project Management Institute's A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide)—Fifth Edition presents a comprehensive and practical set of forms and reports that help project managers apply the concepts and practices described in the PMBOK…
В книге представлены базовые понятия теории переходной схемотехники, необходимые для разработки новой элементной базы суперкомпьютеров различных типов. Теорию переходной схемотехники отличает новая компонентная концепция синтеза наноструктур, в которой минимальным компонентом для синтеза схем является не транзистор, а материал и переход (связь) между материалами. Приводятся данные экспериментально…
The number of ceramic materials with a perovskite type structure is large and of considerable technological importance due to their rich crystal chemistry and structure-property relationships. Applications include multilayer capacitators, piezoelectric transducers, PTC thermistors, electrooptical modulators, optical switches, dielectric resonators, thick film resistors, electronic sensors, electro…
The International Symposium was organized to capture the state of our knowledge on the science and technology of interfaces. The Symposium (in honor of Dr. B. B. Rath) was held during the TMS Annual meeting, Feb 17-21, 2002 at Seattle WA. This volume captures the salient papers presented at the symposium. The symposium was sponsored by the Structural Materials Division and the Electronic, Magnetic…
An essential guide to the stability and control of power systems integrating large-scale renewable energy sources The rapid development of smart grids and the integration of large scale renewable energy have added daunting new layers of complexity to the long-standing problem of power system stability control.
