Description: This volume provides an overview of thin film materials and coatings, design and manufacture for a wide variety of application areas. In particular, the topics of interest include fabrication of thin films by electrospinning, a thin film for solar energy conversion, optical and electrical investigation of thin films and special coatings, applications of PVD/ALD coatings, low friction thin layers. We hope that the presented research results and recommendations will be interesting and useful for engineers and researchers from various areas of engineering.

Description: This book presents the proceedings of the 9-th International Conference on Processing and Manufacturing of Advanced Materials – THERMEC’2016, which took place between May 29 and June 3, 2016 in Graz, Austria, under the co-sponsorship of The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society (TMS), USA. The Conference was also under the international auspices of professional organizations from Japan, Korea, France, Italy, The Netherlands, Germany, Brazil, Austria, India, and Canada. The Conference was intended to bring together the researchers and engineers/technologists working in different aspects of processing, fabrication, structure/property evaluation and applications of both ferrous and nonferrous materials including biomaterials, and smart/intelligent materials as well as the advanced characterisation techniques. In addition to the contributed papers, the conference committee included in the final program the invited presentations by active researchers from various countries in several topic areas covered at THERMEC’2016.

Liquid crystals are substances that have properties which are intermediate between those of a conventional liquid and those of a solid crystal. This special collection comprises peer-reviewed papers that are concerned with all aspects of liquid crystal science and technology. The volume consists of five parts: plenary lectures, the molecular design and synthesis of liquid crystals, the characterization of liquid crystals, the applications of liquid crystals, and the emerging technologies and materials relevant to information display.
