Shock-compression science, which has developed and matured since its inception in 1955. has never before been documented in book form. Over this period, shock-compression research has provided numerous major contributions to scientific and industrial technology. As a result, our knowledge of geophysics, planetary physics, and astrophysics has substantially improved, and shock processes have become standard industrial methods in materials synthesis and processing. Characterizations of shock-compressed matter have been broadened and enriched with involvements of the fields of physics, electrical engineering, solid mechanics, metallurgy, geophysics, and materials science...

Optical designers and specialists in heat transfer calculations in the chemical engineering and mechanical engineering sciences are familiar with the mathematical construct known as The Equation of Radiative Transfer, although most chemists and spectroscopists are not. The Equation of Radiative Transfer states that, disregarding absorbance and scattering, in a lossless optical system...

A traditional explanation of solid friction, which is mainly employed in engineering sciences, is based on plastic deformation.12 Typical surfaces are rough on microscopic length scales, as indicated in Figure 3. As a result, intimate mechanical contact between macroscopic solids occurs only at isolated points, typically at a small fraction of the apparent area of contact.

The study and application of composite materials are a truly interdisciplinary endeavor that has been enriched by contributions from chemistry, physics, materials science, mechanics and manufacturing engineering. The understanding of the interface (or interphase) in composites is the central point of this interdisciplinary effort. From the early development of composite materials of various nature, the optimization of the interface has been of major importance. While there are many reference books available on composite materials, few of them deal specifically with the science and mechanics of the interface of fiber reinforced composites. Further, many recent advances devoted solely to research in composite interfaces are scattered in different published literature and have yet to be assembled in a readily accessible form. To this end this book is an attempt to bring together recent developments in the field, both from the materials science and mechanics perspective, in a single convenient volume.

Simple dynamical systems have proved valuable as models of certain classes of physical systems in many branches of science and engineering. In mechanics and electrical engineering Duffing s and van der Pol s equations have played important roles and in physical chemistry and chemical engineering much has been learned from the study of simple, even artificially simple, systems. In calling them simple we mean to imply that their formulation is as elementary as possible their behaviour may be far from simple. Models should have the two characteristics of feasibility and actuality. By the first we mean that a favourable case can be made for the proposed reaction, perhaps by some further elaboration of mechanism but within the framework of accepted kinetic principles. Thus irreversible reactions are acceptable provided that they can be obtained as the limit of a consistent reversible set. By actuality we mean that they are set in an actual context, as taking place in a stirred tank, on a catalytic surface or in a porous medium. It is not usually necessary to assume the reaction to take place in a closed system with certain components held constant presumably by being in excess.
