Handbook of Molecular Gastronomy
Author: Róisín Burke
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1466594799
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 895
Book Description
Handbook of Molecular Gastronomy: Scientific Foundations and Culinary Applications presents a unique overview of molecular gastronomy, the scientific discipline dedicated to the study of phenomena that occur during the preparation and consumption of dishes. It deals with the chemistry, biology and physics of food preparation, along with the physiology of food consumption. As such, it represents the first attempt at a comprehensive reference in molecular gastronomy, along with a practical guide, through selected examples, to molecular cuisine and the more recent applications named note by note cuisine. While several books already exist for a general audience, either addressing food science in general in a "light" way and/or dealing with modern cooking techniques and recipes, no book exists so far that encompasses the whole molecular gastronomy field, providing a strong interdisciplinary background in the physics, biology and chemistry of food and food preparation, along with good discussions on creativity and the art of cooking. Features: Gives A–Z coverage to the underlying science (physics, chemistry and biology) and technology, as well as all the key cooking issues (ingredients, tools and methods). Encompasses the science and practice of molecular gastronomy in the most accessible and up-to-date reference available. Contains a final section with unique recipes by famous chefs. The book is organized in three parts. The first and main part is about the scientific discipline of molecular and physical gastronomy; it is organized as an encyclopedia, with entries in alphabetical order, gathering the contributions of more than 100 authors, all leading scientists in food sciences, providing a broad overview of the most recent research in molecular gastronomy. The second part addresses educational applications of molecular gastronomy, from primary schools to universities. The third part provides some innovative recipes by chefs from various parts of the world. The authors have made a particular pedagogical effort in proposing several educational levels, from elementary introduction to deep scientific formalism, in order to satisfy the broadest possible audience (scientists and non-scientists). This new resource should be very useful to food scientists and chefs, as well as food and culinary science students and all lay people interested in gastronomy.

Laser Metrology in Fluid Mechanics
Author: Alain Boutier
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1118576950
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 263
Book Description
In fluid mechanics, non-intrusive measurements are fundamental in order to improve knowledge of the behavior and main physical phenomena of flows in order to further validate codes. The principles and characteristics of the different techniques available in laser metrology are described in detail in this book. Velocity, temperature and concentration measurements by spectroscopic techniques based on light scattered by molecules are achieved by different techniques: laser-induced fluorescence, coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering using lasers and parametric sources, and absorption spectroscopy by tunable laser diodes, which are generally better suited for high velocity flows. The size determination of particles by optical means, a technique mainly applied in two-phase flows, is the subject of another chapter, along with a description of the principles of light scattering. For each technique the basic principles are given, as well as optical devices and data processing. A final chapter reminds the reader of the main safety precautions to be taken when using powerful lasers.

Instrumentation and Metrology in Oceanography
Author: Marc Le Menn
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1848213794
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 416
Book Description
Through research, physical oceanography aims to solve the numerous problems stated by thermal, optical and dynamical properties of the oceans. Instrumentation and Metrology in Physical Oceanography describes the means used in oceanography to determine physical properties of the oceans by medium of in situ measurements. This book explores the theoretical functioning of sensors and instruments, as well as different practical aspects of using these tools. The content of this book appeals directly to technicians or engineers wishing to enhance their knowledge of instrumentation and application to environment surveillance. Instrumentation and Metrology in Physical Oceanography details the functioning of sensors and instruments used to assess the following parameters in oceanography: temperature, conductivity, pressure, sound velocity, current in magnitude and direction, time and position with GPS, height of water and tide, waves, optical and chemical properties (turbidity), dissolved gas (O2, CO2), pH, nutrients and other dissolved elements. Furthermore, this book also elaborates on the different means used to obtain measurements at sea (boats, drifting floats, moorings, undersea platforms, gliders...) and techniques currently being developed.

Métrologie laser pour la mécanique des fluides : Granulométrie et techniques spectroscopiques ; Traité MIM, série Géomécanique
Author: BOUTIER Alain
Publisher: Lavoisier
ISBN: 2746288222
Category :
Languages : fr
Pages : 370
Book Description
En mécanique des fluides, les mesures non intrusives sont fondamentales pour améliorer la connaissance du comportement des écoulements. Les cartes de vitesse, de température et de concentration, ainsi que la granulométrie des particules dans les écoulements diphasiques, permettent de mieux appréhender les phénomènes physiques, pour ensuite valider les codes de calculs. Les mesures de vitesse (ainsi que de températures et de concentrations de différentes espèces) par des techniques spectroscopiques reposant sur la diffusion des molécules sont bien adaptées à la caractérisation des écoulements rapides et réactifs , elles reposent sur la fluorescence induite par laser, la diffusion Raman Anti-Stokes cohérente ou l'emploi de diodes laser accordables. Dans les écoulements diphasiques, la détermination de la granulométrie des particules par des moyens optiques, ainsi que les principes de diffusion de la lumière sont détaillés. Pour chaque technique, les principes de base sont décrits, ainsi que les dispositifs optiques et de traitements des signaux. Les principales mesures de sécurité pour utiliser des sources laser intenses sont rappelées.

Chemosensors of Ion and Molecule Recognition
Author: J.P. Desvergne
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9780792345558
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
The design and use of chemosensors for ion and molecule recognition - a branch of supramolecular chemistry - have developed at an extraordinary rate. This imaginative and creative area involves work at the interface of organic and inorganic chemistry, physical chemistry, biology, medicine and environmental science and is providing new sensors based on the specific signal delivered by the analyte-probe reaction. The emergence of efficient fluorescent receptors has allowed the detection, identification, and even titration of, for example, heavy metal or radionuclide pollutants. Further, with sensors displaying specific and strong complexation properties, such materials could be detected and removed at very low concentrations. Further, among other species of biological interest, sugars, oxygen and carbon dioxide can actually be probed with optodes and similar devices. This is clearly just the beginning of a very promising line of research. Audience: Organic chemists interested in creating new chemosensors, as well as the many potential end users of such sensors.
