Topics in Number 44 include:

• The basic mathematical models which arise in some electrochemical processes in regards to galvanic corrosion phenomena
• Near field transducers and their related applications to nano-chemistry and electrochemistry
• How symmetry considerations play a major role in modern scientific computation
• The methods used in the analysis of electrochemical systems, including computer simulations and quantum and statistical mechanics
• The techniques used to investigate ionic and solvent transfer and transport in electroactive materials
• Monte Carlo simulations of the underpotential deposition of metal layers on metallic substrates
• The range of models applied to localized corrosion processes and a review of recent work on the modeling of pitting corrosion
• Descriptions of the conceptual structure of Density-Functional Theory and its practical applications
• Whether scanning acoustic microscopy can be applied to nano-scaled electrochemically deposited thin film systems
• The processes and equations underlying the modeling of the current distribution in electrochemical cells

From reviews of previous volumes:

"This long-standing series continues its tradition of offering high quality reviews of established and emerging subject areas, together with the less common aspects of electrochemical science ? Deserves a place in electrochemistry libraries and should prove useful to electrochemists and related workers."

-Chemistry and Industry

"Continues the valuable service that has been rendered by the Modern Aspectsseries."

- Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry

"Will definitely be of much use to researchers in the field of electrochemistry? The editors of this well-produced volume deserve all appreciation for maintaining the excellent standard of the series."

- Bulletin of Electrochemistry

"Extremely well-referenced and very readable ? Maintains the overall high standards of the series."

- Journal of the American Chemical Society
