X-Ray Diffraction by Disordered Lamellar Structures
Theory and Applications to Microdivided Silicates and Carbons
Language: English
Release Date: December 6, 2012
New methods for the determination of the nature, proportion, and distribution of structural defects in microcrystallized lamellar systems are of utmost importance not only to experimentalists but also to theoreticians. Mathematical formalism - indispensable for such analyses - is well-illustrated...

Language: English
Release Date: August 5, 2004
This is the first volume to appear under the joint editorship of J.P. Hirth and F.R.N. Nabarro. While Volume 11 concentrated on the single topic of dislocations and work hardening, the present volume spreads over the whole range of the study of dislocations from the application by Kléman and his...
Mechanical Behaviour of Materials
Volume 1: Micro- and Macroscopic Constitutive Behaviour
Language: English
Release Date: March 6, 2012
Advances in technology are demanding ever-increasing mastery over the materials being used: the challenge is to gain a better understanding of their behaviour, and more particularly of the relations between their microstructure and their macroscopic properties.
This work, of which this is the...

This book introduces the principles and techniques of crystal growth by the flux method, which is arguably the most useful way to obtain millimeter- to centimeter-sized single crystals for physical research. As it is possible to find an appropriate solvent (“flux”) for nearly all inorganic materials,...
The Chemical Bond in Inorganic Chemistry
The Bond Valence Model
Language: English
Release Date: September 29, 2016
The bond valence model, a description of acid-base bonding, is widely used for analysing and modelling the structures and properties of solids and liquids. Unlike other models of inorganic chemical bonding, the bond valence model is simple, intuitive, and predictive, and is accessible to anyone with...
Feldspar Minerals
Volume 1 Crystal Structures, Physical, Chemical, and Microtextural Properties
Language: English
Release Date: December 6, 2012
Remarks by JVS. Volumes 1 and 2 of Feldspar Minerals were published in 1974, but Volume 3 was not completed because I was forced to devote 3 years to the resolution of unforeseen problems in the construction of an ion probe. By 1977, the incomplete draft for Volume 3 had become obsolete because of...

Language: English
Release Date: December 6, 2012
The decision of Springer-Verlag to publish this book in English came as a pleasant surprise. The fact is that I started writing the first version of the book back in 1978. I wished to attract attention to potentialities inherent in selected-area electron diffraction (SAED) which, for various reasons,...
Dislocations in Solids
The 30th Anniversary Volume
Language: English
Release Date: August 28, 2009

Language: English
Release Date: February 22, 2000
This book represents a detailed and systematic account of the basic principles, developments and applications of the theory of nucleation.
The formation of new phases begins with the process of nucleation and is, therefore, a widely spread phenomenon in both nature and technology. Condensation...
