The subject matter of this work is an area of Lorentzian geometry which has not been heretofore much investigated: Do there exist Lorentzian manifolds all of whose light-like geodesics are periodic? A surprising fact is that such manifolds exist in abundance in (2 + 1)-dimensions (though in higher dimensions they are quite rare). This book is concerned with the deformation theory of M2,1 (which furnishes almost all the known examples of these objects). It also has a section describing conformal invariants of these objects, the most interesting being the determinant of a two dimensional "Floque

Cyclic Polymers (Second Edition) reviews the many recent advances in this rapidly expanding subject since the publication of the first edition in 1986. The preparation, characterisation, properties and applications of a wide range of organic and inorganic cyclic oligomers and polymers are described in detail, together with many examples of catenanes and rotaxanes. The importance of large cyclics in biological chemistry and molecular biology is emphasised by a wide coverage of circular DNA, cyclic peptides and cyclic oligosaccharides and polysaccharides. Experimental techniques and the

During the late 1980s, the field of non-linear analysis of structures was rapidly evolving and broadening. In fact, while the number of applications of non-linear analyses for important and unconventional structures was increasing fast, no guidance was available to the designer for the selection of the models more suited to each specific case. On the other hand, the existence and the accessibility of a number of sophisticated finite element codes for the non-linear analysis of reinforced concrete structures, was a cause more for concern than for relief, because of their lack of validation over

In the past decade we have witnessed the birth and maturing of a field of research centering on the Ca2+ signaling functions of cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP), which structures and mechanisms of action are truly unique among all Ca2+ messengers. A wide range of physiological functions are now known to be mediated by them in cells spanning three biological kingdoms from protist, plant to animal. This is the first book devoted entirely to the field. The story behind the emergence of the field is told and followed by comprehensive reviews of th

Process Intensification is a technology concept that attempts to increase the processing efficiency and throughput of a chemical plant. Separating reactors – chemical reactors that remove product from a reaction as it is formed – are an expeditious means of process intensification to reduce capital and operating costs, particularly where the reaction is equilibrium limited, and many commercial scale processes are in operation. Cyclically operating separating reactors are a development of this technology, which offer a number of benefits in operation. The technology has advanced to pilot sc
