Spinodal Crystallization of Polymers: Crystallization from the Unstable Melt
This paper reviews the authors' investigation into polymer crystallization, especially involving a spinodal decomposition (SD) type phase... -
Molecular Dynamics Modeling of the Crystal-Melt Interfaces and the Growth of Chain Folded Lamellae
The molecular mechanism of polymer crystallization is one of the most difficult problems and has defied innumerable efforts to understand the... -
Topological Mechanism of Polymer Nucleation and Growth – The Role of Chain Sliding Diffusion and Entanglement
Direct evidence of nucleation during the induction period of nucleation from the melt is obtained for the first time by means of small angle X-ray... -
Modeling Polymer Crystallization
We summarize the salient conclusions derived from Langevin dynamics simulations of many flexible polymer molecules undergoing crystallization from... -
Dynamical Theory of Parametric X-ray Radiation
Previous chapters demonstrate a close analogue between the theory of parametric X-ray radiation (PXR) in thin crystals and the kinematic theory of... -
Out-of-Plane Vibrations of Plane Frames
The frame vibrations studied in Chaps. 3 to 5 are for in-plane vibrations. If a plane frame acted upon by a force or horizontal ground vibration in... -
Vibrations of Frames with Inclined Members
The model established for the vibration of the inclined bars in the last chapter now is applied to two- and three-bar frames with inclined members. -
Cu-Mg-Si (Copper - Magnesium - Silicon)
This document is part of Subvolume A4 'Light Metal Systems. Part 4: Selected Systems from Al-Si-Ti to Ni-Si-Ti' of Volume 11 'Ternary Alloy Systems -... -

Radiation from a Charged Particle in Periodic Media: Classical Theory
The method of pseudophotons, considered in the previous chapter, is convenient for qualitative analysis of parametric X-ray radiation (PXR). PXR in... -
Prospective Applications of PXR
The previous chapters concern the fundamental properties of PXR, which have been experimentally observed and theoretically explained. The most recent... -
Electromagnetic Radiation from a Charged Particle in Crystals: Qualitative Consideration
Electromagnetic radiation caused by motion of a charged particle has been studied for more than 100 years. It was firmly believed for an appreciable... -
Vibrations of X-Braced Multi-Story Frames
The study of vibrations for the x-braced portal frames in the last chapter is extended to high-rise x-braced multi-story frames in this chapter.... -
Dumbbell Model for Dilute and Semi-Dilute Solutions
Dumbbell models are very crude representations of polymer molecules. Too crude to be of much interest to a polymer chemist, since it in no way... -
Conical Shells of Linearly Varying Thickness Subjected to Normal Loads
The equilibrium equations for a surface element of a conical shell in the framework of generalized plane stress of linear theory of elasticity are... -
Equilibrium Statistics: Monte Carlo Methods
Monte Carlo methods use random numbers, or ‘random’ sequences, to sample from a known shape of a distribution, or to extract distribution by other... -
H0.5(Ta0.5W0.5)O3
This document is part of Subvolume A1 'Structure Types. Part1: Space Groups (230) Ia-3d – (219) F43-c' of Volume 43 'Crystal Structures of Inorganic... -
A Imperfection Data Bank
For the stochastic modeling of geometric imperfections as described in Sec. 12.1, a database [5] has been available. This database provides... -
7 Rational Treatment of Uncertainties
Structural analysis up to this date, generally is still based on a deterministic conception. Observed variations in loading conditions, material... -
4 Finite Element Method
In this chapter, the fundamentals of the displacement-based finite element method are reiterated in a concise form, details can be found in a number...
