En molekylär introduktion till termodynamik
- 2020
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Begreppen entropi och fri energi har genom tiderna visat sig särskilt svåra att få grepp om och att förstå för så gott som alla studenter. Termodynamik framställs vanligen på ett ganska matematiskt och abstrakt sätt, vilket ger upphov till denna sorts svårighet. Denna bok visar dock att det inte alltid krävs en massa matematik för att få en intuitiv förståelse av termodynamikens väsentligaste principer om de belyses utifrån molekylära sammanhang. Framställningen är i stor utsträckning baserad på bilder och enkla resonemang som leder till de korrekta matematiska sambanden. Boken är upplagd så att den kan användas på förstaårsnivå och uppåt inom universitets- och högskolestudier i naturvetenskapliga ämnen. Den kan läsas som en fristående bok eller utgöra ett komplement till den gängse kurslitteraturen.

Fluorescent Analogs of Biomolecular Building Blocks: Design and Applications
- 2016
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Fluorescent Biomolecules and their Building Blocks focuses on the design of fluorescent probes for the four major families of macromolecular building blocks. Compiling the expertise of multiple authors, this book moves from introductory chapters to an exploration of the design, synthesis, and implementation of new fluorescent analogues of biomolecular building blocks, including examples of small-molecule fluorophores and sensors that are part of biomolecular assemblies.

Metal-Organic Frameworks
- 2020
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Some 80,000 metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been reported as of 2020. With intriguing structures and fascinating properties, MOFs are poised to be a defining material of the 21st century with a great deal of commercial potential from methane fuel automobile tanks to carbon capturing. Metal-Organic Frameworks provides an introduction to the complex world of MOFs. Researchers new to MOFs can use this work as a jumping-off point for theoretical study or applied research. The work is broad and expansive in scope, but inclusive and comprehensive in detail. The authors provide a personal perspective of MOF research that provides a strong foundation in the basic methods and themes as well as directs the reader in how to think about MOFs. Sixteen MOF structures are animated, providing more clarity into the dimensionality of MOFs. Accompanying links take the reader to additional 3-D structures provided by The Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre (CCDC)

Statistical Mechanics of Liquids and Solutions – Intermolecular Forces, Structure and Surface Interactions; Volume 1
- 2019
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The statistical mechanical theory of liquids and solutions is a fundamental area of physical sciences with important implications in other fields of science and for many industrial applications. This book introduces equilibrium statistical mechanics in general, and statistical mechanics of liquids and solutions in particular. A major theme is the intimate relationship between forces in a fluid and the fluid structure – a relationship that is paramount for the understanding of the subject of interactions in dense fluids. Using this microscopic, molecular approach, the text emphasizes clarity of physical explanations for phenomena and mechanisms relevant to fluids, addressing the structure and behavior of liquids and solutions under various conditions. A notable feature is the author’s treatment of forces between particles that include nanoparticles, macroparticles, and surfaces. The book provides an expanded, in-depth treatment of simple liquids and electrolytes in the bulk and in confinement. - Provides an introduction to statistical mechanics of liquids and solutions with special attention to structure and interactions. - Offers an extensive presentation starting with the basics of statistical mechanics to modern aspects of the theory of liquids and solutions, including intermolecular interactions in fluids. - Treats both homogeneous bulk fluids and inhomogeneous fluids near surfaces and in confinement. - Takes a microscopic, molecular approach that combines physical transparency, theoretical sharpness and a pedagogical and accessible style. - Gives explicit and clear textual explanations and physical interpretations for any mathematical relationships and derivations. - Goes deeper than the available texts on interactions in fluids, by taking the discussion beyond simple approximations and mean field approaches. The book will be an invaluable resource for advanced undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate students in physics, chemistry, soft matter science, surface and colloid science and related fields, as well as professionals and instructors in those areas of science.

Generalized van der Waals Theory of Molecular Fluids in Bulk and at Surfaces
- 2018
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Generalized van der Waals Theory of Molecular Fluids in Bulk and at Surfaces presents successful research on the development of a new density theory of fluids that makes it possible to understand and predict a wide range of properties and phenomena. The book brings together recent advances relating to the Generalized van der Waals Theory and its use in fluid property calculations. The mathematics presentation is oriented to an audience of varying backgrounds, and readers will find exercises that can be used as a textbook for a course at the upper undergraduate or graduate level in physics or chemistry. In addition, it is ideal for scientists from other areas, such as geophysics, oceanography and molecular biology who are interested in learning about, and understanding, molecular fluids. Key Features •Presents an approximate, but fully derived and physically explained, theory of molecular fluids to facilitate broad applications •Derives a density functional theory of classical fluids and applies it to obtain equations of state, as well as non-uniform fluid properties, e.g., surface tension and adsorption •Demonstrates how the theory can be applied to complex multi-center molecules forming a polymer fluid •Provides user-friendly programs to redraw figures for variable parameters and to perform calculations in particular applications •Includes a set of exercises to support use of the book in a course Readership Researchers in statistical mechanics, scientists and engineers working with fluids as well as graduate and upper undergraduate students in chemistry, chemical engineering and physics

Environmental Sustainability for Engineers and Applied Scientists
- 2019
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This textbook presents key theoretical approaches to understanding issues of sustainability and environmental management, perfectly bridging the gap between engineering and environmental science. It begins with the fundamentals of environmental modelling and toxicology, which are then used to discuss qualitative and quantitative risk assessment methods, and environmental assessments of product design. It discusses how business and government can work towards sustainability, focusing on managerial and legal tools, before considering ethics and how decisions on environmental management can be made. Students will learn quantitative methods while also gaining an understanding of qualitative, legal, and ethical aspects of sustainability. Practical applications are included throughout, and there are study questions at the end of each chapter. PowerPoint slides and jpegs of all the figures in the book are provided online. This is the perfect textbook on environmental studies for engineering and applied science students.
