Informationen zum Autor WALTER G. ROTHSCHILD, PhD, worked for 33 years at the Scientific Research Laboratories of Ford Motor Company in Dearborn, Michigan, where he was engaged in basic and applied research, mainly in gaseous and condensed-phase spectroscopy of structure and dynamics, combustion phenomena, and automotive catalysis. He is a part-time member of the adjunct faculty, Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science, Wayne State University, Detroit, Michigan. Klappentext Eine Einführung in die Anwendungen der Fraktaltheorie. Im Vordergrund stehen die Anwendungen der Theorie auf chemische Problemstellungen. Umfangreiche Beispiele aus der Literatur werden in klarer, verständlicher Sprache behandelt, und es gibt Hinweise zu wichtiger Literatur und Software. Es wird aufgezeigt, wie Fraktale zur Darstellung chemischer Phänomene benutzt werden können, z.B. Absorption und Permeabilität, Fraktierung bei Aggregation und Wachstum, Diffusionsreaktionen, Spektroskopie und Energietransfer. (10/98) Zusammenfassung Fractals are geometric shapes created by replication. Using examples, this text stresses the application of fractals theory to "real" chemistry related problems. Demonstrating how they can be used to model chemical phenomena like absorption, permeability and energy transfer. Inhaltsverzeichnis Theoretical Outline.
