This is the second of two volumes offering the very first comprehensive treatise of self-organization? and non-linear dynamics in electrochemical systems. The first volume covers general principles of self-organization as well as temporal instabilities.
The? content of both volumes is? organized? so? that each description? of a particular electrochemical? system? is? preceded? by? an? introduction? to basic concepts of nonlinear dynamics, in order to help the reader unfamiliar with? this? discipline to understand at least fundamental concepts and? the methods of stability analysis. The presentation of the systems is not? limited? to? laboratory? models but stretches out to real-life objects? and? processes,? including? systems? of biological importance,? such as neurons? in? living? matter. Marek Orlik? presents? a? comprehensive and consistent survey of the field.Theoretical background of spatial and spatiotemporal patterns in dynamical systems.- Experimental and model spatiotemporal patterns in electrochemical systems.- Cooperative dynamics of coupled and forced oscillators.- Spatial and spatiotemporal patterns in anodized semiconductors.- Convection as a source of self-organization in electrochemical systems.- Liquid membrane and other membrane oscillators.- Control of electrochemical chaos and unstable steady-states.
From the reviews:
No textbook has so far been specifically devoted to the topic of self-organization in electrochemical systems. Happily, Marek Orlik has now remedied this omission with a remarkable and compendious work entitled Self-Organization in Electrochemical Systems. & Self-Organization in Electrochemical Systems is surely destined to become a standard work.? For the serious scholar, this book is a treasure that will be enjoyed for many years. The author, and the publishers, are to be congratulated on a fine piece of work.
