Synopsis

Chemical Modelling: Applications and Theory comprises critical literature reviews of all aspects of molecular modelling. Molecular modelling in this context refers to modelling the structure, properties and reactions of atoms, molecules and materials.

The tenth volume of the series brings Jan Ole Joswig to the editorial team, and a wealth of new reviews spanning several disciplines. For example, materials scientists will benefit from the review on Inverse Molecular Design for Materials and Modelling PAHs will be of interest to environmental scientists. Other reviews have detailed focus on modelling, such as Reaction Kinetics and Accurate Modelling of Electric Properties of Polyatomic molecules from the first principles.

Each chapter provides a selective review of recent literature, incorporating sufficient historical perspective for the non-specialist to gain an understanding.

With chemical modelling covering such a wide range of subjects, this Specialist Periodical Report serves as the first port of call to any chemist, biochemist, materials scientist or molecular physicist needing to acquaint themselves with major developments in the area.

About this title

Book Description:

Chemical Modelling covers a wide range of disciplines and this specialist periodical report is the first stop for any materials scientist, biochemist, chemist or molecular physicist wishing to acquaint themselves with major developments in the applications and theory of chemical modelling. Containing both comprehensive and critical reviews, this volume is a convenient reference covering the last 18 months of the current literature.

About the Author:

Prof. Dr. Michael Springborg heads up of the three groups in Physical Chemistry at the University of Saarland where the main activities concentrate on teaching and research. The major part of Prof. Dr. Michael Springborg's research concentrates on the development and application of theoretical methods, including accompanying computer programs, for the determination of materials properties. Quantum theory forms the theoretical foundation for most of our work. The materials of the group's interest range from atoms, via clusters and polymers, to solids. They study their structural, electronic, energetic, and opitcal properties.
