This text specializes in the structure of materials, and focuses solely on the three different states of solid condensed matter - glasses, crystals, and liquid crystals - and developes a set of tools for describing all of them. |
Synopsis: |
Are You Looking for a Unified and Concise Approach to Teaching and Learning the Structure of Materials? Allen and Thomas present information in a manner consistent with the way future scientists and engineers will be required to think about materials selection, design, and use. Students will learn the fundamentals of three different states of condensed matterglasses, crystals, and liquid crystalsand develop a set of tools for describing all of them. Above all, theyll gain a better understanding of the principles of structure common to all materials. Key concepts, such as symmetry theory, are introduced and applied to provide a common viewpoint for describing structures of ceramic, metallic, and polymeric materials. Structure-sensitive properties of real materials are introduced. The text also includes a variety of worked example problems.
