Summary
Electromechanics of Particles is the first book to describe field-particle interactions in diverse areas of science and technology and to show that these quite different technologies are based on similar electromechanical phenomena. It is written in a clear and engaging style and includes numerous real-world examples and a general, easy-to-use predictive model useful to engineers and scientists who work with particles or powders and granular materials.
Subject
  • Dielectrophoresis
  • Particles
