Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - To select an optimal structure among possible similar structures, one needs to compare the elastic behavior of the structures. A new criterion that describes elastic behavior is the rate of change of deformation. Using this criterion, the safe dimensions of a structure that are required by the stress distributed in a structure can be calculated.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Unimolecular reactions are in principle the simplest chemical reactions, because they only involve one molecule. This book offers a review of the modern view of the statistical theories, as embodied in the various forms of RRKM theory. It deals with the fully quantum mechanical view of reactive states as resonances.
