This third edition of the classic on the thermochemical aspects of
the combustion of propellants and explosives is completely revised
and updated and now includes a section on green propellants and
offers an up-to-date view of the thermochemical aspects of
combustion and corresponding applications. Clearly structured, the
first half of the book presents an introduction to pyrodynamics,
describing fundamental aspects of the combustion of energetic
materials, while the second part highlights applications of
energetic materials, such as propellants, explosives and pyrolants,
with a focus on the phenomena occurring in rocket motors. Finally,
an appendix gives a brief overview of the fundamentals of
aerodynamics and heat transfer, which is a prerequisite for the
study of pyrodynamics. A detailed reference for readers interested
in rocketry or explosives technology.
Modern Methods of Plant Analysis When the handbook Modern Methods
of Plant Analysis, was first introduced in 1954, the considerations
were: 1. the dependence of scientific progress in biology on the
improvement of existing and the introduction of new methods; - 2.
the difficulty in finding many new analytical methods in
specialized journals which are normally not accessible to
experimental plant biologists; 3. the fact that in the methods
sections of papers the description of methods is frequently so
compact, or even sometimes to incomplete, that it is difficult to
reproduce experiments. These considerations still stand today. The
series was highly successful, seven volumes appearing between 1956
and 1964. Since there is still today a demand for the old series,
the publisher has decided to resume publication of Modern Methods
of Plant Analysis. It is hoped that the New Series will be just as
acceptable to those working in plant sciences and related fields as
the early volumes undoubtedly were. It is difficult to single out
the major reasons for the success of any publication, but we
believe that the methods published in the first series were
up-to-date at the time and presented in a way that made
description, as applied to plant material, complete in itself with
little need to consult other publications. Contribution authors
have attempted to follow these guidelines in this New Series of
volumes. Editorial The earlier series of Modern Methods of Plant
Analysis was initiated by Michel v.
