Description: This volume includes papers presented at the 2nd Conference on Research and Application of Advanced Cementitious Materials and Advanced Materials Forum (CRAACM & AMF) - one of the most important Chinese academic conferences held every two years. The second conference was successfully held in China Xi'an in October 2020. Collected articles represent the last scientific and engineering research results in materials in machinery and construction, technologies of the materials synthesis and processing, nanomaterials, materials, and technologies in optoelectronics and electronics.

Description:

The world population keeps increasing, and this growth has enormously impacted the environment negatively. Researchers all over the world have continually seeking different ways by which the negative impact of the global increasing population can be minimized including developing new technologies to accommodate the high population. The use of plastic has increased, wastes are taking land spaces, which could be used for other purposes such as building and farming, water bodies are been polluted leading to poor access to portable water, and food shortage has been experienced in many communities. The research presented in this book cut across Machine Design, Technologies of Environmental Engineering and Bioprocessing, Materials and Technologies in Construction, Information and Communication Technologies, and Engineering and Project Management. These researches if implemented would go a long way in providing sustainable and lasting solutions to these challenges.

Description: This edition from the series “Corrosion” contains articles published by Trans Tech Publications in the 2017 - 2020 years. The volume “Corrosion. Materials and Structures in Construction” presents readers with a wide range of scientific research results in the studying of corrosion degradation and corrosion behaviour of materials and structures in construction, and the engineering solutions in the development of technologies and means for the protection of them against the influence of aggressive environments. This collection will be valuable and exciting to a broad audience of researchers and engineers from civil engineering and architecture.

Description: This volume contains selected and peer-viewed papers presented at the 21st Chinese Materials Conference 2020(CMC2020) held online in Beijing, China, Nov. 17-22. 2020. The Chinese Materials Conference (CMC) is the most important serial conference of the Chinese Materials Research Society (C-MRS) and is held each year since the early 1990s. Chinese Materials Conference 2020 had 42 Symposia covering four fields of energy and environmental materials, advanced functional materials, high-performance structural materials, and design, preparation, and characterization of materials. This book will be useful and interesting for many engineers and researchers engaged in materials areas.
