A phase vector or phasor in physics and engineering signifies a sine wave whose amplitude and frequency are time-variant. The behavior of a sinusoid is decomposed by phasors into three independent ...

Colloids display intriguing transitions between gas, liquid, solid and liquid crystalline phases. Such phase transitions are ubiquitous in nature and have been studied for decades. However, the ...

An intermetallic compound is a compound of specific composition between two metallic species. On a binary phase diagram, regions associated by these compounds are bounded by two phase zones. The range ...
