Some of the main topics included in the book are those related but not limited to the trends in Materials Science and their application in industry, e.g.: composites and biomaterials, polymers, materials weldability, analysis of metals and alloys, numerical analyses and simulation of materials, etc. Most of these topics keep a direct relation to the production technologies and systems and thus, always keeping a special focus on the materials used, there are also topics in the book addressing key production processes, technologies and systems.

Description: This Special Issue of Key Engineering Materials, commemorating the 90th birthday of Professor Jan Sobota, attempts to provide a flavor of the wide range of his interest in and contributions to structural mechanics and the Finite Element Method. Professor Sobota was an outstanding academic teacher, in both didactic and pedagogical fields, a highly talented research worker, incorporating both theory and engineering practice. His attitude, industriousness, and cordiality brought him a great esteem among his co-workers and a students’ community. He was a pioneer in using the Finite Element Method, Transfer Matrix Method and the Boundary Integrals Method and its numerical modification Boundary Element Method in former Czechoslovakia (now Slovakia and the Czech Republic). Therefore, selected papers in this book are dealing with modeling and analyzing of various reinforced concrete structures and its parts mainly by the FEM. Different problems of structures, e.g. design of complicated structures, defects of structures, determination of wind load on atypical structures, soil-structure interactions, thermal effects, etc.; are involved and their suitable solutions are provided to readers.

Description:

Novel Trends in Production Devices and Systems III (NTPDS III) special volume is aimed at publishing scientific achievements in the fields of Materials Science and associated Production Technologies, as well as at enhancing the worldwide cooperation among young and senior academicians and/or practitioners, and specially those from the European region. The volume has been enriched taking into account years of research and teaching activities in the fields, experiences resulting from the scientific collaboration among higher education centers, e.g.: CECOL, while at the same time by also counting on a prestigious editorial review board that made strong analyses of the submitted papers. Some of the main topics included in the book are those related but not limited to the trends in Materials Science and their application in industry, e.g.: composites and polymers, materials weldability, analysis of metals and alloys, numerical analyses and simulation of materials, etc.
