Basic Principles of Classical Mechanics
To describe the motion of mechanical systems one uses a variety of mathematical models which are based on different principles - laws of motion. In... -
Phase behavior of phytanyl-chained akylglycoside/water systems
The aqueous phase behavior of novel alkylglycosides, AGs, that have a 3,7,11,15-tetramethylhexadecyl (phytanyl) group as their hydrophobic part was... -
Adsolubilization by mixtures of ionic and non-ionic surfactants
The adsolubilization of 2-naphthol by surfactant mixtures of ionic and non-ionic surfactants has been investigated for three systems; sodium dodecyl... -
Salt-induced aggregation in cationic liposome suspensions
The simple salt-induced aggregation of small unilamellar dioleoyltrimethylammoniumpropane [DOTAP] vesicles is investigated by measuring the change in... -
Enzymatic activity of lipase entrapped in CTAB/water/pentanol/hexane reverse micelles: a functional and microstructural investigation
The lipase VII (from Candida rugosa) activity was studied as a function of the content of pentanol and water in cethyltrimethylammonium bromide... -
Perfluoropolyether carboxylic salts in micellar solution and O/W microemulsions
High purity laboratory-scale samples of Cl(C3F6O) n CF2COOX salts are examined for their micellization in water, with n... -
5. Simulation of Active and Nonlinear Photonic Nano-Materials in the Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) Framework
A numerical method is presented that unites three-dimensional finite-differnce time-domain (FDTD) computer simulations of active, nonlinear photonic... -
13. Parallel Implementation Strategiesfor Algorithms from Scientific Computing
Many applications from scientific computing are computationally intensive and can therefore benefit from a realization on a parallel or a distributed... -
4 Abelian Gauge Fixing
The formation of monopoles and their condensation in the QCD ground state is a feature which is related to abelian gauge fixing, discussed in this... -
13 Dynamic, One-Dimensional and Miscellaneous Problems
The previous part of this monograph makes it clear that the branch of the Mathematical Theory of Contact Mechanics, which deals with quasistatic... -
Probe entrapment by vesicular systems in relation with the properties of the amphiphilic film
Two different vesicular systems were investigated as regards their ability to substantially retain a hydrophilic probe. The first system was a series... -
Self-assembly of homogeneous systems
The circle packings including non-periodic packings can be analysed for physical and thermodynamic stability for a triangular net with T 4=3–6... -
Specific ion effects: why colloid science has failed to contribute to biology
Surface tension of salt solutions and double layer forces between charged interfaces show marked specific ion effects not accommodated by the... -

Encapsulation of alkaline phosphatase in polyacrylamide microparticles using the concentrated emulsion polymerisation method
Polyacrylamide microparticles were prepared by the concentrated emulsion polymerisation technique. In distilled water the microparticles have... -
The immobilisation of DNA strands on silica surface by means of chemical grafting
The surface chemistry and physicochemical phenomena involved in the chemical grafting process of short DNA single strands on silica or glass slides... -

General Aspects of Nuclear Resonant Scattering
Nuclear resonant scattering (NRS) unites a number of different scattering processes that can be used to investigate properties of condensed matter.... -
6 Mathematical Preliminaries
Part II provides mathematical formulations of the models, the assumptions that underlie them, their weak or variational formulations and the... -
11 Contact with Wear or Adhesion
In this chapter we present results on models of frictional contact when the wear of the contacting surfaces is taken into account. The importance of...
