Laser Cleaning Boris Lukiyanchuk (Editor) 2002

This work presents the mechanics of the cleaning processes, experimental results, and different applications, including laser cleaning of art. It contains review articles by leading specialists in laser cleaning who participated in the First International Workshop on Laser Cleaning, held in Singapore in 2001.

The Mathematics of Thermal Modeling John Michael Dowden 2001

This text introduces the mathematics needed to formulate and exploit the physical principles important to modelling various aspects of laser material processing. The author shows readers how to gain insight from the construction of simple models and how these methods can be applied to laser welding, surface treatment, drilling and cutting.

Laser Applications in Surface Science and Technology H-G Rubahn 1999 The purpose of this book is to describe the huge variety of laser-surface interaction mechanisms and to relate them to the analysis and transformation of surfaces.
