This Handbook discusses the recent advances in biodegradation technologies and highlights emerging sustainable materials, including environmentally friendly nano-based materials for replacing plastics. It is useful to scientists, engineers, biologists, medical doctors and provides alternative eco-friendly materials to replace the currently used ones with harmful impact on the environment and life. The chapters present different types of alternative materials in diverse areas, such as food packaging materials, materials for construction and agricultural materials. The principles and types of biodegration technologies are described in depth.

A bilingual collection of essays on the aesthetics of Gilles Deleuze, Discern(e)ments highlights what is at stake in Deleuzian philosophy of art. It traces the reception of Deleuzian thought in a broad range of disciplines and gauges its use-value in each of them. Following the dynamics between structure and becoming that punctuates Deleuzian aesthetics, Discern(e)ments sketches and erases boundaries between methods and traditions in philosophy and art theory, as well as in literary, performance and film studies. Offering both numerous case-studies as well as theoretical outlines, Discern(e)ments engages faculties, disciplines and criticisms not in a mere exchange of points of view, but in heterogenesis mapping out further discernments in Deleuzian aesthetics.

Cet ouvrage rassemble différentes contributions autour des problèmes de mécanique posés par les interfaces solide/solide. Que ce soit dans les matériaux traditionnels (alliages polyphasés, composites) ou dans les nouvelles technologies (couches minces, nano- et micro-dispositifs) les interfaces sont omniprésentes et conditionnent souvent le fonctionnement optimal de ces structures multi-constituées. Les différents aspects abordés ont pour objectif d'apporter les notions de base nécessaires à l'étude et à la compréhension des états de déformation et de contrainte au voisinage des interfaces dans les matériaux hétérogènes et leurs conséquences pratiques. Cet ouvrage s'adresse aux ingénieurs confrontés à des problèmes spécifiques dus aux effets d'hétérogénéités ainsi qu'aux chercheurs scientifiques abordant les problèmes fondamentaux liés à l'influence d'une interface sur le comportement mécanique d'un élément de matière hétérogène. Il pourra également être utile aux étudiants d'école d'ingénieur, de master et de doctorat en physique de la matière condensée ou en science et génie des matériaux.

The diffusion of the cults of Isis is recently again intensively studied. Research on this fascinating phenomenon has traditionally been characterised by its focus on L'Égypte hors d'Égypte, while developments in Hellenistic and Roman Egypt itself were often seen as belonging to a different domain. This volume tries to overcome that unhealthy dichotomy by studying the cults of Isis in Hellenistic and Roman Egypt itself in relation to developments in the Mediterranean at large. The book not only presents an overview of the most important deities, often based on new or unpublished material, but also pays ample attention to the cultural processes behind Isis on Nile, like relations between style and identity, religious choice, social- and cultural memory and Egypt’s view of its own past.

First published in 2004. Le Carbone Dans Tous Ses États fait le bilan des connaissnances actuells sur l'élément carbone et, en particulier, sur les diverse formes cristallines qu'il permet de générer: diamant, graphite at fullerène. Se placant d'abord dans le cadre historique des études sur ces matériaux, pour arriver aux récentes découvertes des moléculs de la familie du C60, les auteurs passent en revue les aspects chimiques at physiques de ces systémes. Les propriétés (thermodynamiques, structurales, électroniques, électriques, optiques, magnétiques) sont cécrites at, le cas échéant, less applucations technologiques potentielles sont discutées. Ce livre s'adresse à tours les étudiants, enseignants et cherceheurs qui s'intéressent à la matière en général, au matièriaux avancés et à leurs applications.
