Diffusion metamaterials for plasma transport.This open access book presents a comprehensive exploration of diffusion metamaterials that control energy and mass diffusion. Currently, if from the perspective of governing equations, diffusion metamaterials and wave metamaterials (pioneered by J. B. Pendry in the 1990s) are recognised as the two most prominent branches in the field of metamaterials. These two branches differ in their emphasis on the diffusion equation (as the governing equation) and time-dependent characteristic lengths in diffusion metamaterials, as opposed to the wave equation (as the governing equation) and time-independent characteristic lengths in wave metamaterials. Organized into three distinct parts – 'Thermal Diffusion Metamaterials', 'Particle Diffusion Metamaterials', and 'Plasma Diffusion Metamaterials' – this book offers a rigorous exploration spanning physics, engineering, and materials science, aimed at advancing our understanding of diffusion processes controlled by diffusion metamaterials. Incorporating foundational theory, computational simulations, and laboratory experiments, the book equips researchers and scholars across these disciplines with comprehensive methods, insights, and results pivotal to the advancement of diffusion control. Beyond facilitating interdisciplinary discourse, the book serves as a catalyst for innovative breakthroughs at the crossroads of physics, thermodynamics, and materials science. Essentially, readers will acquire profound insights that empower them to spearhead advancements in diffusion science (diffusionics) and the engineering of metamaterials.ThermodynamicsThermoelectric materialsHeat engineeringHeat transferMass transferStatistical PhysicsCondensed matterBuilding materialsThermodynamicsThermoelectricsEngineering Thermodynamics, Heat and Mass TransferStatistical PhysicsCondensed Matter PhysicsStructural MaterialsThermodynamics.Thermoelectric materials.Heat engineering.Heat transfer.Mass transfer.Statistical Physics.Condensed matter.Building materials.Thermodynamics.Thermoelectrics.Engineering Thermodynamics, Heat and Mass Transfer.Statistical Physics.Condensed Matter Physics.Structural Materials.536.7Yang Fu-Baoauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1732814Huang Ji-Pingauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910842601103321Diffusionics4147521UNINA03478nam 22007454a 450 991082516890332120200520144314.01-135-77568-01-135-77569-91-280-09995-X0-203-00946-010.4324/9780203009468 (CKB)1000000000254680(EBL)214539(OCoLC)437065966(SSID)ssj0000153315(PQKBManifestationID)11162517(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000153315(PQKBWorkID)10392168(PQKB)11499540(MiAaPQ)EBC214539(Au-PeEL)EBL214539(CaPaEBR)ebr10161522(CaONFJC)MIL9995(OCoLC)826514588(PPN)198451199(EXLCZ)99100000000025468020021211d2003 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrThe family in the Mediterranean welfare state /Manuela Nandini1st ed.London ;Portland, Ore.

Two aims form the focus of the book. Firstly, to open the black box of the family in welfare state analysis, introducing a focus on inter-generational and kin relations. Secondly, to explain why the southern welfare states have offered very low support to families with children by taking into account several factors: the legacy of fascism, the role of the Church, and the specific role played by leftist parties in defining famiFamiliesItalyFamiliesSpainWelfare stateItalyWelfare stateSpainFamily policyItalyFamily policySpainFamiliesFamiliesWelfare stateWelfare stateFamily policyFamily policy306.85/0945Naldini Manuela125614MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910825168903321The family in the Mediterranean welfare state3922287UNINA
