Fuzzy Logic in Chemistry. Questo articolo non è disponibile.Fuzzy Logic in Chemistry

Fuzzy Logic has gained increasing acceptance as a way to deal with complexity and uncertainty in many areas of science and engineering. This book is the first to address its practical applications to chemical systems. Ten distinguished authors discuss the role of fuzzy logic in the characterization of a variety of chemical concepts, including chirality, quantum systems, molecular engineering and design, and hierarchical classification methods.Fuzzy Logic in Chemistry will appeal to both students and professionals who are seeking to learn more about theory and applications in an area of growing importance to the physical sciences.

Key Features
* The first book on the applications of fuzzy logic in chemistry
* Covers a topic relevant to many disciplines, including molecular design
* Discusses applications of fuzzy logic to the physical sciences, a rapidly growing area
* Features chapters from highly distinguished authors in the physical sciences

In recent years fuzzy logic has gained widespread acceptance in many areas of science and technology as a powerful approach to the treatment of uncertainty in complex systems. This book, which begins with a foreword by the founder of fuzzy logic, Professor Lotfi A. Zadeh of the University of California at Berkeley, is the first to explore the role of fuzzy logic in chemistry. Nine distinguished authors not only provide the necessary theoretical background but also describe the practical aspects of fuzzy theory in all of the significant areas of chemical application. Included in their treatment are such topics as:

*Foundations of fuzzy logic
*Growing importance of fuzzy logic in the physical sciences
*Description of molecular size and shape
*Definition of chemical concepts such as chirality
*Role of fuzzy logic in quantum-chemical systems
*Hierarchical classification of chemical species and systems
*Engineering of molecular species, including drug design
Fuzzy Logic in Chemistry will appeal to a broad spectrum of chemists seeking to know more about the the relevance of fuzzy methods to chemical systems.
