    • Inglés
    Digital Image Processing of Remotely Sensed Data presents a practical approach to digital image processing of remotely sensed data, with emphasis on application examples and algorithms. It explains where to get the data and what is available and what preprocessing is needed to prepare the imagery for processing. Research topics are described to indicate the limitations of computer methods. This book is comprised of seven chapters and begins with a summary of basic concepts used in remote sensing and digital imagery, followed by a discussion on sources of remotely sensed data. Two essential hardware ingredients in a digital image processing system, a computer and a display device, are then considered, along with the algorithms used in digital image processing. Examples of how digital image processing algorithms have been applied to real imagery for specific objectives are given, including the Kentucky water impoundment experiment and the land-use mapping initiative in Washington, D.C. The next section is devoted to research topics such as digital image shape detection; edge detection and regionalized terrain classification from satellite photography; and digital image enhancement for maximum interpretability using linear programming. This monograph will be of value to professional regional planners, natural resource managers, and others in fields ranging from hydrology and forestry to agronomy and geology.

    This third volume completes the first part of the project " Macromolecular Physics." The first volume dealt with the description of macromolecular crystals; the second volume dealt with crystal growth; and the third volume summarizes our knowledge of the melting of linear, flexible macromolecules. The discussion in the three volumes goes from reasonably well-established topics, such as the structure, morphology, and defects in crystals, to topics still in flux, such as crystal nucleation, detailed growth mechanisms, and annealing processes, to arrive at the present topics of equilibrium, nonequilibrium, and copolymer melting. Our knowledge is quite limited on many aspects of these latter topics.

  • Handbook of Magnetic Materials

    • 1 Edición
    • Volumen 2
    • E.P. Wohlfarth
    • Inglés
    The Handbook of Magnetic Materials has a dual purpose; as a textbook, it provides an introduction to a given topic within magnetism, and as a work of reference, it serves scientists active in magnetism research. To fulfill these two goals, each chapter in the Handbook is written by leading authorities in the field, and combines state-of-the-art research results with an extensive compilation of archival knowledge. Magnetism is a rapidly expanding field which constantly continues to encompass new phenomena. Examples of such subfields of magnetism are quadrupolar interactions, magnetic superconductors, and quasiscrystals: topics that are all covered in the present volume. The only common ground between these new materials and ferromagnets, is the possession of a magnetic moment; the series title has been slightly adjusted to reflect this. But in keeping with tradition, the Handbook of Magnetic Materials continues to allow readers to acquaint themselves in great depth with topics through the entire breadth of magnetism research.

  • Lens Design Fundamentals

    • 1 Edición
    • Rudolf Kingslake
    • Inglés
    A large part of this book is devoted to a study of possible design procedures for various types of lens or mirror systems, with fully worked examples of each. The reader is urged to follow the logic of these examples and be sure that he understands what is happening, noticing particularly how each available degree of freedom is used to control one aberration. Not every type of lens has been considered, of course, but the design techniques illustrated here can readily be applied to the design of other more complex systems. It is assumed that the reader has access to a small computer to help with the ray tracing, otherwise he may find the computations so time-consuming that he is liable to lose track of what he is trying to accomplish.

  • Spectroscopy

    • 1 Edición
    • Volumen 13A
    • Inglés
    This volume attempts to cover the entire subject of spectroscopy from pair production in the gamma-ray region to dielectric loss in the low radio-frequency region. Defining spectroscopy as the study of the emission and absorption of electromagnetic radiation by matter, this book presents a general theory that is applicable throughout the entire range of the electromagnetic spectrum and show how the theory can be applied in gaining knowledge of the structure of matter from experimental measurements in all spectral regions. The book is intended for graduate students interested in acquiring a general knowledge of spectroscopy, for spectroscopists interested in acquiring knowledge of spectroscopy outside the range of their own specialties, and for other physicists and chemists who may be curious as to “what those spectroscopists have been up to” and as to what spectroscopists find so interesting about their own work.

    • Inglés
    Treatise on Materials Science and Technology, Volume 3: Ultrasonic Investigation of Mechanical Properties summarizes the studies of mechanical properties by acoustic methods. Aside from a comprehensive examination of acoustic-mechanical phenomena, fundamental concepts and applications are discussed. Topics covered range from linear and nonlinear elastic waves to energy loss from elastic waves (ultrasonic attenuation). Comprised of four chapters, this volume begins with an introduction to the theory of linear elastic wave propagation, focusing on wave speeds and particle displacements as well as energy flux, isotropic solids, and cubic crystals. Plane waves propagating along [110] and in arbitrary directions are also considered, together with optical visualization of ultrasonic waves and measurement of linear elastic properties. The next chapter is devoted to nonlinear elastic waves and measurement of their elastic properties, with emphasis on how velocity measurements of elastic waves may be used to determine mechanical properties of solid materials. The final chapter analyzes the various mechanisms by which energy can be lost from ultrasonic waves propagating through real solids and how measurement of the amount of this energy loss can yield valuable information about the mechanical properties of the solid. This monograph is intended for professional scientists and engineers, as well as graduate students in materials science and associated fields.
