Эта книга посвящена периоду с 700 по 1500 год нашей эры, времени, когда мусульманскими странами и Китаем управляли могущественные династии; она описывает то, какие отношения существовали между двумя этими мирами до прихода европейцев. На основе тщательного анализа карт, географических источников и путевых заметок, оставленных китайскими и мусульманскими авторами, автор прослеживает развитие контак…
В своей книге Ван Линчжэнь, опираясь на работы женщин-кинематографистов социалистического Китая, размышляет о корнях феминистской стагнации и границах коммерческого мейнстрима и «элитарной» культуры в Китае современном. Автор полагает, что фильмы таких режиссеров, как Ван Пин, Хуан Шуцинь и Дун Кэна, были глубоко неверно истолкованы в рамках исследовательских парадигм, укоренившихся в западной иде…
A comprehensive introduction, examining both macroscopic and microscopic aspects of the subject, the book applies the theory of thermodynamics to a broad range of materials; from metals, ceramics and other inorganic materials to geological materials. Focusing on materials rather than the underlying mathematical concepts of the subject, this book will be ideal for the non-specialist requiring an in…
The comprehensive reference on modern techniques and methods for monitoring and inspecting corrosion Strategic corrosion inspection and monitoring can improve asset management and life cycle assessment and optimize operational budgets. Advances in computer technologies and electronics have led to very efficient tools for monitoring and inspecting corrosion, including impedance spectroscopy, electr…

Volume 23 COVERS LINEAR SCALING METHODS FOR QUANTUM CHEMISTRY, VARIATIONAL TRANSITION STATE THEORY, COARSE GRAIN MODELING OF POLYMERS, SUPPORT VECTOR MACHINES, CONICAL INTERSECTIONS, ANALYSIS OF INFORMATION CONTENT USING SHANNON ENTROPY, AND HISTORICAL INSIGHTS INTO HOW COMPUTING EVOLVED…
This second volume of the series 'Reviews in Computational Chemistry' explores new applications, new methodologies, and new perspectives. The topics covered include conformational analysis, protein folding, force field parameterizations, hydrogen bonding, charge distributions, electrostatic potentials, electronic spectroscopy, molecular property correlations, and the computational chemistry litera…
From reviews of the series: 'Many of the articles are indeed accessible to any interested nonspecialist, even without theoretical background.' Journal of the American Chemical Society '…an invaluable resource for the serious molecular modeler.' Chemical Design Automation News
This volume in the series brings together reknowned experts in the field to present the reader with an account of the latest developments in quantum mechanics, molecular dynamics, and the teaching of computational chemistry. There are so many developments in the field of computational chemistry that it is difficult to keep track of them. The series was established to review the high volume of deve…
This series is reviewing advances in the rapidly growing and evolving field of computational chemistry. It was established to keep track of the many new developments and is therefore providing a valuable service to the scientific community.

The miniaturization of bulky devices and machines is a process that confronts us on a daily basis. However, nanoscale machines with varied and novel characteristics may also result from the enlargement of extremely small building blocks, namely individual molecules. This bottom-up approach to nanotechnology is already being pursued in information technology, with many other branches about to follo…
