About this title

Synopsis

This volume is meant as an introductory resource aimed at practitioners of electrochemistry research, technology, and development mainly at the atomic, molecular or macromolecular levels. Thus emphasis is placed at length scales in the 1-100 nm range. The volume will help provide understanding of electrochemical phenomena and materials at the nanoscale through modeling and numeric simulations. It also serves as a means to create and use structures, electrochemically based devices, and systems that possess novel properties and functions because of their small or intermediate sizes.

Synopsis

In 1999, the International Centre for Mechanical Sciences celebrates thirty years of activity. For this celebration, CISM has organized a series of courses and meetings on environmental problems, one of the leading subjects today of theoretical and applied research all over the world. The results obtained directly influence our daily life, particularly in applications for protection from pollution and natural hazards. The most significant of the events was the Conference on 'Environmental Applications of Mechanics and Computer Science', where prominent scientists in the field present significant examples of the scientific approach to large scale phenomena involved in environmental problems.
