About the Book: |
It has been almost thirty years since the publication of a book that is entirely dedicated to the theory, description, characterization and measurement of the thermal conductivity of solids. The recent discovery of new materials which possess more complicated crystal structures and, thus, more complicated phonon scattering mechanism have brought innovative challenges to the theoretical and experimental understanding of these new materials.
With the development of new and novel solid materials and extensive measurement techniques, this book will serve as a up-to-date resource for the next generation of researchers in the field of thermal conductivity.
This special low-priced edition is for sale in India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka only.
