Small Angle X-Ray and Neutron Scattering with Applications to Geomaterials provides techniques for the analysis of geomaterials, which is of great significance for humans because geomaterials are related to earthquake, resource development, underground spaces, carbon dioxide storage, and more. The book introduces the fundamental theory of small angle X-ray and neutron scattering and covers pore accessibility characterization for natural rocks from four aspects, including quantitative evaluation of pore structure heterogeneity and anisotropy, quantification of pore modification in coals due to pulverization, estimation and modeling of coal pore accessibility, and nanoscale coal deformation and alteration of porosity and pore orientation under uniaxial compression.
Finally, interactions between pore structures and fluid behaviors in geomaterials are introduced, along with the connections between small-angle scattering and other techniques (NMR cytophotometry, Transmission Electron Microscopy and synchrotron radiation SAXS and nano-CT) described.
- Covers both theory and applications of small angle X-ray and neutron scattering as related to geomaterials
- Provides context for using the techniques described in the book in connection with other well-known techniques
- Includes analysis methods of interactions between pore structures and fluid behaviors in geomaterials

About the Author
Professor and Dr. Shimin Liu is an Associate Professor of Energy and Mineral Engineering at Penn State University. He specializes in geomechanics and fluid dynamics and their applications in unconventional resources development, underground mining, carbon sequestration, and natural hazard prevention. His current research interests include flow of fluids in porous media (with application to gas flow in coal/shale, coalbed methane reservoir engineering, carbon sequestration in geologic media and abandoned coal mines), imaging (micro-X-ray computed tomography, synchrotron X-ray scattering, neutron scattering/diffracting, scanning/transmission electron microcopy) and analysis to study physical structure of rocks, flow-induced micro-structuring of rocks, geomechanical responses of unconventional reservoirs with depletion, mine ground control and mine ventilation. He is the Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal of Coal Science and Technology (IJCS&T).
Dr. Yingfeng Sun is a Lecturer in the School of Civil and Resource Engineering at University of Science and Technology Beijing. Prior to joining University of Science and Technology Beijing in 2020, he was a post-doctor at China University of Mining and Technology (Beijing) (2018-2020). He obtained his PhD (Safety Science and Engineering) from China University of Mining and Technology (Beijing) in 2018. His research interests are in the microstructure characterization of geomaterials by synchrotron small angle X-ray scattering and synchrotron nano-CT, pore scale flow in geomaterials by CFD and LBM, and micromechanical properties of geomaterials. His research has been sponsored by National Natural Science Foundation of China and China Postdoctoral Science Foundation.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Books Puddle, New York, New York, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
