Composites

• Materials Structure & Micromechanics of Fracture V
  The main goal of these proceedings was to demonstrate the use of a variety of multi-scale approaches, ranging from the atomistic to the macroscopic level, and in this it succeeds admirably.
• Research Trends in Contemporary Materials Science
  This useful collection comprises 92 peer-reviewed papers, grouped into nine sections: I Nanostructured Materials; II Solid State Phenomena; III Fine Particles; IV Thin Films; V Materials for Hydrogen Energy Storage; VI Optical Materials; VII Biomaterials; VIII Polymers & Composites; and IX Metallic Systems.
• Nitrides and Oxynitrides III
  This volume is dedicated to the ever-expanding fields of application of nitrides in ceramics, metals, glasses, composites and coatings. The papers cover all of those branches of materials science and engineering which concern the role of nitrogen in the improvement and modification of the properties of materials; particularly those destined for novel applications.
• Superplasticity in Advanced Materials
  Interest in the phenomenon of superplasticity has been increasing steadily over the past thirty-four years, both from the viewpoint of fundamental scientific understanding as well as of industrial application. The scope of superplasticity has also broadened materials-wise, and now includes, in addition to metals: intermetallics, ceramics, bulk metallic glasses, nanostructured materials and composites.
• Recent Developments in Advanced Materials and Processes
  Materials science and engineering is a multidisciplinary area of research which encompasses the physics, chemistry and engineering of every class of material. In recent years, the field has attracted increasing attention, following the discovery of new types of material and their subsequent application in new technologies.
• Advanced Materials Forum III
  The aim of this book is to provide the reader with the latest advanced research results on, and an improved understanding of, various aspects of the processing and characterization of materials.
• Advanced Structural Materials II
  This collection comprises invited and contributed papers which were presented at the Advanced Structural Materials Symposium held in Cancún, México during the Annual Conference of the Mexican Academy of Materials Science.
• New Frontiers of Processing and Engineering in Advanced Materials
  Materials science which focuses on clarifying a material’s properties at the micro- and nano-scale is rapidly accelerating the production of new advanced materials. The production of such materials, developed in this new century, will promote the growth of wholly new industries in a variety of engineering fields.
• Current Research in Advanced Materials and Processes
  The present book comprises ninety-two papers, by leading scientists from 21 countries, thematically arranged into ten sections: I Nanostructures and Thin Films; II Solid State Phenomena; III Nanomaterials; IV Advanced Materials; V Materials for Electrochemistry; VI Spectroscopic Characterization; VII Synthesis and Processing; VIII Powders, Ceramics and Sintering; IX Composites and X Biomaterials.
• Functionally Graded Materials VIII
  Multifunctional materials are composite systems that exhibit useful responses to electrical, optical, magnetic and/or mechanical stimuli. They allow the compact and economic integration of two or more functions; which can be mechanical, biological, acoustic, thermal, electrical, magnetic, optical or sensory in nature. Functionally graded materials (FGM) are also multi-functional materials, which exhibit spatial variations in composition and/or microstructure; created with the specific purpose of controlling variations in thermal, structural or functional properties. In spite of large differences in the type and size scale of the materials considered, many common features exist, thus furnishing a rationale for grouping these materials together in one book.
