Metastable, Mechanically Alloyed and Nanocrystalline Materials 1998
Metastable and Nanocrystalline Materials offer enormous technological potential and, for this reason, they are the subject of intense world-wide research. -
Fracture of Materials: Moving Forwards
The literature on fracture accumulated over the past few decades is abundant. It would be too overwhelmingly difficult to name every original contribution to the field by different individuals. Yet, a quick glance through even very limited part of the vast fracture literature in the past thirty or forty years or so, one is bound to come across one name - Yiu-Wing Mai, whose work covers fracture mechanics modeling on various toughening mechanisms, microstructure and property relations, processing and testing of polymers, ceramics, metals and their respective composites, and in recent years on nano- and bio- materials. -
Bioceramics 18
This important work is a compilation of the papers presented at the 18th Annual Meeting of the International Society for Ceramics in Medicine (ISCM) held on December 8–12, 2005 in Kyoto, Japan. Bioceramics 18 is a report of the latest progress made in the study of bioceramics and their applications in medicine; especially the repair of bone defects. The ever-increasing impact of bioceramics is reflected within the pages of this book. -
Advances in Nanocrystallization
The present book sums up the most recent advances in the investigation of nanocrystallization. Many new nanocrystalline materials with promising magnetic and mechanical properties have been developed. For example, soft-magnetic nanocrystalline Fe-based alloys, hard-soft nanocrystalline Fe/FeNdB-type magnets and light Al-based nanostructures with attractive mechanical properties. -
Fracture and Strength of Solids VI
Fracture, Fatigue and Strength are some of the most important properties of engineering materials. -
Advances in Fracture and Strength
This volume comprises selected papers from the Asian Pacific Conference for Fracture and Strength (APCFS’04), held on Jeju Island, Korea during the 6th to 8th October, 2004. During this conference, participants from the Asian-Pacific region gathered in order to exchange the latest experimental, theoretical and computational research on the fracture, strength, integrity and reliability of materials and structures. -
Measurement Technology and Intelligent Instruments VI
The requirements of high precision and of high-quality components and devices in meeting the needs of modern industry and society in disciplines such as semiconductors, optics, nanotechnology, MEMS, manufacturing, biomedical and environmental engineering, make measurement technology and intelligent instruments (which sense, measure and report), more important than ever, and essential for the rapid development of information technology. -
Advances in Abrasive Technology VIII
This book presents a wealth of valuable up-to-date information for active researchers and engineers, and will certainly form a solid basis for any future research, in the field of abrasive technology, which is aimed at creating new and practical machine tools, systems and processes, or at identifying new characteristics. -
Advanced Biomaterials VI
This volume contains a selection of carefully chosen papers from the Sixth Asian Symposium on Biomedical Materials, held in Emei, Chengdu, China, from the 19th to the 22nd July 2004. The conference welcomed some 300 delegates from 15 countries and areas: including the USA, Canada, Germany, France, the Netherlands, Australia, New Zealand, etc. -
Advanced Si-Based Ceramics and Composites
Significant progress has been made over the past 30 years in handling silicon-based ceramics such as silicon nitride, silicon carbide, SiAlON, silicides and composites. A better understanding of processing parameters in various forming techniques, and of microstructure-property relationships, has led to substantial improvements in thermomechanical performance and reliability; as well as in cost reduction.
