Since there is no published data for 2D-FG micro/nanobeams including the simultaneous effects of surface energy and modified couple stress, the present results of bending and buckling behaviors are compared with some limiting cases available in the literature. 3.1.1 Validation of static bending The dimensionless center deflection of a simply-supported homogeneous microbeam with E=1.44 GPa, ν=0.38, h=88 μm, L=20h and b=2h and subjected to a uniformly distributed load of unit intensity q is presented in Table 2, based on the MCST and compared with Reddy [100] and Arbind and Reddy [101] for different values of the dimensionless material length parameter (l/h).
Such assumption is due to that there is no experimental data in the literature for the material length scale parameter of bi-directionally functionally graded materials l(x,zm) or of silicon (lSi).

In practice it is understood that the reduction is enhanced in borate anionic networks under mild-reducing atmospheres when compared to phosphate or aluminate networks.
The spectroscopic data indicate that the Eu 2+→ Mn2+ energy transfer process takes place in the host matrix of CaAl2Si2O8.
The photoluminescence results were correlated with the lifetime data to get an insight into the luminescence and energy transfer processes taking place in the system.

This blue shift could be attributed to the size reduction effect of PVA matrix to CdSe nanorods.
Experimental data has shown that the thermionic emission theory is a better approximation than the diffusion theory [104].

Understanding the manner in which damage evolves in engineering materials, systems or structures is currently the focus of extensive research. The object of the present book is to report recent advances in the areas of damage detection, assessment and quantification. All aspects of the topic are covered, ranging from detailed theoretical analyses to case studies of full-scale structures. Signal processing is still an important theme of the conference. However, some of the emphasis is now placed on damage mechanisms in materials. Also of vital importance, for structural health and condition monitoring, is the optimum choice of measurement strategy; including the specification of sensors.

The 2011 International Conference on Materials Engineering for Advanced Technologies was held on May 5-6, 2011, in Singapore. The objective of the conference was to bring together researchers from academia and industry, as well as end-users, in order to share ideas, problems and solutions related to the multifaceted aspects of Materials Engineering for Advanced Technologies. The resultant timely overview will be appreciated by anyone involved in these fields.
