This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication presents the proceedings of ICPMSE-4, the fourth international conference on Protection of Materials and Structures from the Low Earth Orbit Space Environment, held in Toronto April 23-24, 1998. The conference was hosted and organized by Integrity Testing Laboratory Inc. (ITL), and held at the University ofToronto's Institute for Aerospace Studies (UTIAS). Twenty two industrial companies, six universities and fourteen government agencies from Canada, USA, United Kingdom, France, Israel, Russia, Ukraine and the Netherlands were represented by over 75 participants indicating increasing international co-operation in this critical arena of protection of materials in space. Twenty-seven speakers, world experts in their fields, delivered talks on a wide variety of topics on various aspects of material protection in space. Representatives from the Canadian, American, European and Israeli space agencies as well as from leading space research laboratories ofmajor aerospace industries gathered at UTIAS to discuss the latest developments in the field of material and structure protection from the harsh space environment.

Download or read book Passive Infrared Detection written by J. Caniou and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1999-06-30 with total page 658 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to link each of the specific aspects involved in the detection process to foundational physical principles. Following a development of the basic radiometric laws and units the text is organized around three main topics: (1) thermal radiation of sources and electromagnetic wave propagation through the atmosphere; (2) a comprehensive description of infrared detection systems from the most up-to-date components to equipment either in use or in development; (3) a detailed presentation of the two most common applications, being infrared observation and temperature measurement. Since the text provides all the necessary theory and relationships, together with an in-depth look at the practical side of infrared detection, it is an aid to both physicists and engineers in order to specify appropriate solutions to their specific problems. It is also a guide for technicians to check the conditions required for temperature measurement or thermal image analysis. Some parts of the text have been used for several years in lectures; consequently, many students have contributed directly or indirectly by their questions and reactions in selecting the topics and clarifying the presentation, resulting in a book that is ideal for both graduate and higher undergraduate courses. Equally it can be used as a reference for students entering this multidisciplinary subject.

The information included will also be of interest to researchers and advanced students in plastics engineering, polymer chemistry, adhesives and coatings. - Offers a systematic approach, guiding the reader through chemistry, processing methods, properties and applications of thermosetting polymers - Includes thorough updates that discuss current practice and the new developments on biopolymers, nanotechnology, 3D printing, radiation curing and biological adhesives - Uses case studies to demonstrate how particular properties make different polymers suitable for different applications - Covers end-use and safety considerations
Download or read book Handbook of Liquids Assisted Laser Processing written by Arvi Kruusing and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2010-07-07 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Laser processing of solid materials has been commonly performed in gas ambient. Having the workpiece immersed into liquid, having a liquid film on it, or soaking the material with liquid gives several advantages such as removal of the debris, lowering the heat load on the workpiece, and confining the vapour and plasma, resulting in higher shock pressure on the surface. Introduced in the 1980s, neutral liquids assisted laser processing (LALP) has proved to be advantageous in the cutting of heat-sensitive materials, shock peening of machine parts, cleaning of surfaces, fabrication of micro-optical components, and for generation of nanoparticles in liquids. The liquids used range from water through organic solvents to cryoliquids. The primary aim of Handbook of Liquids-Assisted Laser Processing is to present the essentials of previous research (tabulated data of experimental conditions and results), and help researchers develop new processing and diagnostics techniques (presenting data of liquids and a review of physical phenomena associated with LALP). Engineers can use the research results and technological innovation information to plan their materials processing tasks. Laser processing in liquids has been applied to a number of different tasks in various fields such as mechanical engineering, microengineering, chemistry, optics, and bioscience. A comprehensive glossary with definitions of the terms and explanations has been added. The book covers the use of chemically inert liquids under normal conditions. Laser chemical processing examples are presented for comparison only. - First book in this rapidly growing field impacting mechanical and micro/nano-engineering - Covers different kinds of liquid-assisted laser processing of a large variety of materials - Covers lasers emitting from UV to IR with pulse lengths down to femtoseconds - Reviews over 500 scientific articles and 300 inventions and tabulates their main features - Gives a qualitative and quantitative description of the physical phenomena associated with LALP - Tabulates 61 parameters for 100 liquids - Glossary of over 200 terms and abbreviations
