Description for Pattern Formation in Liquid Crystals
Hardback. Deals with the pattern formation in nonequilibrium phenomena and physics of liquid crystals, both active and diverse areas of research. This book features chapters, each by a noted researcher in the field, which summarize the fundamental work done in the 1960s, and also review results from the research in respective fields. Editor(s): Buka, Agnes; Kramer, Lorenz. Series: Partially Ordered Systems. Num Pages: 352 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PHDF; PNT. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 20. Weight in Grams: 675.
In the last 20 years the study of nonlinear nonequilibrium phenomena in spa tially extended systems, with particular emphasis on pattern-forming phenomena, has been one of the very active areas in physics, exhibiting interesting ramifi cations into other sciences. During this time the study of the "classic" systems, like Rayleigh-Benard convection and Taylor vortex flow in simple fluids, has also been supplemented by the study of more complex systems. Here liquid crystals have played, and are still playing, a major role. One might say that liquid crystals provide just the right amount and right kind of complexity. They are full ... Read more
