ISBN: 1848821808 ISBN-13: 9781848821804 Publisher: Springer OUR PRICE: $151.99 Product Type: Hardcover - Other Formats Published: July 2009 Annotation: This book presents the most comprehensive and methodical work on the theory of the moirA(c) phenomenon, providing a full general-purpose and application-independent exposition of this fascinating effect. Based on the Fourier theory, it leads the reader through the various phenomena which occur in the superposition of repetitive layers, both in the image and in the spectral domains. The first chapters of the book present the basic theory, covering the superposition of monochrome, periodic layers. In later chapters, the theory is extended to the even more interesting cases of polychromatic moirA(c)s and moirA(c)s between repetitive, non-periodic layers. Throughout the whole text the book favours a pictorial, intuitive approach, which is supported by mathematics, and the discussion is accompanied by a large number of figures and illustrative examples. The prerequisite mathematical background is limited to an elementary familiarity with the Fourier theory.

| Publisher Description: Since the first edition of this book was published several new developments have been made in the field of the moir theory. The most important of these concern new results that have recently been obtained on moir effects between correlated aperiodic (or random) structures, a subject that was completely absent in the first edition, and which appears now for the first time in a second, separate volume. This also explains the change in the title of the present volume, which now includes the subtitle "Volume I: Periodic Layers". This subtitle has been added to clearly distinguish the present volume from its new companion, which is subtitled "Volume II: Aperiodic Layers". It should be noted, however, that the new subtitle of the present volume may be somewhat misleading, since this book also treats (in Chapters 10 and 11) moir effects between repetitive layers, which are, in fact, geometric transformations of periodic layers, that are generally no longer periodic in themselves. The most suitable subtitle for the present volume would therefore have been "Periodic or Repetitive Layers", but in the end we have decided on the shorter version. |
