Infos

Unique in presenting novel theories of creep and fatigue that help to anticipate - and prevent - possible fatal material failures, this is a concise overview of the fundamentals and applications of density-functional theory-based computational materials science. These fundamentals are covered in sufficient detail to derive the governing equations of density-functional theory, and the main part of the book is devoted to applying the computational methods so as to predict the properties of semiconductors, transition metals, alloys, and solid solutions. As a result, users gain the knowledge and tools to simulate material properties and to design materials with desired characteristics.

Autor

Valim Levitin is a Professor and the Head of an internationally renowned research group at the National Technical University in Ukraine. His research focuses on studying nature of interatomic bonding, atom vibrations in solids, computer simulation of parameters that determine the behavior of solids, surface physics, and X-ray, TEM, and work-function studies into the fundamentals of material strength. He has published three books and numerous articles in the fields of materials science and solid-state physics.
