Stimuli-Responsive Polymers
This book provides a general introduction to nanogels and the design of various stimuli-sensitive nanogels that can control drug release in response to specific stimuli. Formed by physically or chemically crosslinking polymers, nanogels are three-dimensional nanosized networks. They have highly i...

Causality Rules
Scattering of light by light is a fundamental process arising at the quantum level through vacuum fluctuations. This short book will explain how, remarkably enough, this quantum process can be described in terms of classical quantities. The description is derived from general principles, such as ...

Nanoparticle (NP)-Based Delivery Vehicles
Nanoparticle (NP)-Based Delivery Vehicles looks at smart nanostructures and how these are considered a promising approach when applied to drug- and gene-delivery systems, in addition to how to solve the problems related to the inefficient transfer of medication to the affected cells.

The Tai Chi in Star Formation
Tai chi, a Chinese martial art developed based on the laws of nature, emphasises how "to conquer the unyielding with the yielding". The recent observation of star formation shows that stars result from the interaction between gravity, turbulence and magnetic fields. This interaction again follows...

Nonlinear Dynamics
This book employs a hands-on approach to nonlinear dynamics using commonly available software, including the free dynamical systems software Xppaut, Matlab (or its free cousin, Octave) and the Maple symbolic algebra system. Detailed instructions for various common procedures, including bifurcatio...

Earthquakes
This book is an introduction to wave dynamics as they apply to earthquakes, among the scariest, most unpredictable, and deadliest natural phenomena on Earth. The text starts with a discussion of types and representations, including wave-generation mechanics, superposition, and spectral analysis. ...

Modeling Self-Heating Effects in Nanoscale Devices
Accurate thermal modeling and the design of microelectronic devices and thin-film structures at the micro- and nanoscales poses a challenge to electrical engineers who are less familiar with the basic concepts and ideas in sub-continuum heat transport. This book aims to bridge that gap. Efficient...

Metamaterial Multiverse
Many of the physical properties of our universe, such as the relative strength of the fundamental interactions and the value of the cosmological constant, appear to be fine-tuned for the existence of human life. One possible explanation of this assumes the existence of a multiverse. This book rev...
