Elasticity of Auxetic Materials
Comment Share
Rushchitsky, Jeremiah

The auxeticity of elastic materials is described and explained by the use of the linear and nonlinear models of elastic deformations for a wide range of strain values up to moderate levels. This chapter consists of three parts - general information on auxetic materials, description of auxetics by the model of the linear theory of elasticity, descrip…

Origin of Rubber Elasticity
Comment Share
Pal, Sanjay

Under suitable conditions, virtually all rubbery materials exhibit the ability to sustain deformations followed by complete recovery upon removal of the stress. This phenomenon holds significance beyond the narrow confines of the term "rubber elasticity" This elasticity theory is also of great importance in the deformation of any substances., e.g., …

Shah, Wiqar Hussain

The different elements are doping in the tellurium telluride to determine the different properties like electrical and thermal properties of nanoparticles. The chalcogenide nanoparticles can be characteristics by the doping of the different metals which are like the holes. We present the effects of Pb doping on the electrical and thermoelectric prop…

Shape Memory Alloys 2017
Comment Share
TAKUO, Sakon

Shape memory alloys (SMAs) have special property of the shape memory effect. After thermal treatment above the martensitic transition temperature, the alloys come back to the original shape when the alloys heat again after having cooled it to the temperature that is lower than the martensitic transition temperature. By means of this property, many industrial parts and systems were produced. Thi…

However, attempts to simplify tax systems are only likely to be successful and enduring if they take account of the reasons why taxation is complex. There are strong pressures on tax systems to accommodate a range of important factors, as well as complex and changing national and international environments within which modern tax sys…

Life Histories of Etnos Theory in Russia and Beyond
Comment Share
Anderson, David G.Arzyutov, Dmitry V.Alymov, Sergei S.

The idea of etnos came into being over a hundred years ago as a way of understanding the collective identities of people with a common language and shared traditions. In the twentieth century, the concept came to be associated with Soviet state-building, and it fell sharply out of favour. Yet outside the academy, etnos-style arguments not only persist, but are a vibrant part of regional anthrop…
