These proceedings comprise the refereed papers presented at the International Conference on Advanced Material Research (ICAMR 2011) held on January 21 - 23, 2011 in Chongqing, China. The main goal of this, and other events, was to provide an international scientific forum for the exchange of new ideas in a number of fields via in-depth discussions with peers from around the world. Both inward research; core areas of advanced materials research and outward research; multi-disciplinary, inter-disciplinary research and applications were covered; thus providing a thorough overview of the subject.

Description: During the past fifty years, significant progress has been achieved in the theory and application of SiAlONs and other similar non-oxide ceramics. In particular, the advances of the last thirty years in research and development have made SiAlONs, and similar materials, some of the most important engineering ceramics and new functional ceramics of today.

The inspiration for this book was to gather together the efforts of those physicists, materials scientists/engineers and other scientists who are carrying out interdisciplinary research into multiscale modelling of time-evolving phenomena in materials.

Description: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
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.

Description: This eighth volume in the series covering the latest results in the field includes abstracts of papers which appeared between the publication of Annual Retrospective VII (Volumes 230-232) and the end of 2005 (allowing for vagaries of journal availability).
