Sommario/riassunto

The number of cases of post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) affecting both combat veterans and survivors of armed conflict has increased in recent years. Exposure to traumatic events can cause PTSD, and the serious consequences of this disorder can often lead to impulsive and destructive behaviors such as drug abuse and uncontrollable anger. Combat related PTSD is also one of the strongest contributing factors to the high suicide risk in returning troops.This book presents the collected papers from the 2012 NATO Advanced Study Institute (ASI): Invisible Wounds - New Tools to Enhance PTSD Diag

Sommario/riassunto

This book describes carbon nanothreads with complete and comprehensive knowledge covering theories, numerical methods, and properties comparisons with other carbon-based nanomaterials. For one thing, the main theoretical aspects in this book include: First-Principle Calculation, Density Functional Theory, Classical Molecular Dynamics Simulation, Non-equilibrium Molecular Dynamics Simulation, and Coarse Grained Simulation. For another thing, the main research contents include: Fundamental Mechanical Properties; Fracture Characteristics; Electronic and Magnetic Properties; Thermal Properties; Reinforcement in Polymer Composites; and other promising applications in engineering. The target of this book is to provide to many researchers the available theoretical and numerical methods, and



useful computational results of carbon nanothreads for reference. This book can be used as a comprehensive source for scientists, academics, researchers, and engineers in various areasof engineering, physical sciences, and computational modeling. In order to achieve this target, the book introduces the microstructure information of carbon nanothreads and the modeling details at full length. The tunable mechanisms of physical properties of carbon nanothreads are discussed in detail, which enable integration of these nanoscale components into high-order structures for “bottom-up design” purpose. The revealed reinforced mechanisms of carbon nanothreads in polymer composites can provide theoretical guidance for engineering design of advanced polymer composites.
