Tensor Param Ferroic Phase Tra (Hardcover)

An issue of the journal "Phase Transitions," a multinational journal edited by A.M. Glazer. The main purpose of this work is to describe the changes in material properties, expressed by tensors up to the fourth rank, induced by ferroic phase transitions. These are set out in tables in which for each symmetry descent one can read immediately the form of tensors for the parent point group and tensor parameters onsetting in the first domain state of the ferroic symmetry.
