Chawla2nd ed. 2013.New York :Springer,2013.1 online resource (xvi, 370 pages) illustrations (some color)Gale eBooksDescription based upon print version of record.1-4614-9547-4 Includes bibliographical references and indexes.Preface -- Introduction -- Reinforcements -- Matrix Materials -- Processing -- Interface -- Micromechanics -- Monotonic Behavior -- Cyclic Fatigue -- Creep -- Wear and Corrosion -- Applications -- Author Index -- Subject Index.Metal Matrix Composites (MMCs) have progressed from “niche” materials to high performance applications in aerospace, electronic packaging, automotive, and recreational products. This book focuses on the synergistic relationships among processing, microstructure, and properties of metal matrix composites. The authors include chapters on reinforcements, common matrix materials, processing of MMCs, interface characterization and techniques for obtaining interfacial properties, monotonic mechanical and physical properties, cyclic fatigue, creep, wear resistance, corrosion, and applications of MMCs. This, 2nd edition, builds on the text of the previous edition, by adding new and contemporary coverage of nanocomposites, corrosion, new applications, and new characterization techniques such as x-ray tomography and micropillar compression.Metallic compositesMetallic composites.620.0042Chawla Nikhileshauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1062213Chawla Krishan Kumar1942-MiFhGGMiFhGGBOOK9910437806703321Metal Matrix Composites2523533UNINA03428nam 22005535 450 991025458810332120200706165740.03-319-67606-710.1007/978-3-319-67606-7(CKB)4100000000882501(DE-He213)978-3-319-67606-7(MiAaPQ)EBC5091976(PPN)220126232(EXLCZ)99410000000088250120171005d2017 u| 0engurnn|008mamaatxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierAspects of WIMP Dark Matter Searches at Colliders and Other Probes /by Enrico Morgante1st ed. 2017.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2017.1 online resource (XX, 212 p. 50 illus., 42 illus. in color.) Springer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,2190-50533-319-67605-9 Part I: Introduction -- Generalities about Dark Matter -- Part II: Direct and Indirect WIMP Searches -- Direct Detection of Wimps -- Indirect Detection -- Focus on AMS-02 Anti-protons Results -- Part III: LHC Searches -- Dark Matter Searches at the LHC -- The EFT Approach and its Validity -- Simplified Models -- Relic Density.-  Part IV: Complementary Searches in the Simplified Model Framework -- A U(1)’ Gauge Mediator -- A 750 Gev Pseudo-scalar Mediator -- Conclusions.This thesis covers several theoretical aspects of WIMP (weakly interacting massive particles) dark matter searches, with a particular emphasis on colliders. It mainly focuses on the use of effective field theories as a tool for Large Hadron Collider (LHC) searches, discussing in detail the issue of their validity, and on simplified dark matter models, which are receiving a growing attention from the physics community. It highlights the theoretical consistency of simplified models, which is essential in order to correctly exploit their potential and for them to be a common reference when comparing results from different experiments. This thesis is of interest to researchers (both theorists and experimentalists) in the field of dark matter searches, and offers a comprehensive introduction to dark matter and to WIMP searches for students and non-experts.Springer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,2190-5053CosmologyNuclear physicsPhysical measurementsMeasurementCosmologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22049Particle and Nuclear Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23002Measurement Science and Instrumentationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31040Cosmology.Nuclear physics.Physical measurements.Measurement.Cosmology.Particle and Nuclear Physics.Measurement Science and Instrumentation.523.1Morgante Enricoauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut818353BOOK9910254588103321Aspects of WIMP Dark Matter Searches at Colliders and Other Probes2000192UNINA
