Description: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
The increased use of advanced materials in high-efficiency structures – electronic devices, medical equipment, aircraft and vehicles – requires an improved reliability, increased resistance to breakdown, and better failure and life-span forecasting for a wide variety of loading conditions. The development of materials having advanced structural properties is becoming a key factor in industrial and technological progress.
