Books
The book covers a broad range of topics related to damage and failure of structural materials and parts. The collection contains the results of research and analysis of the fracture behavior of the materials that are subject to fatigue and extreme plastic deformation including analysis of the failures caused by stress concentrators such as welded joints. Several papers focus on the structural design of engineering parts and prediction of their lifespan based on the knowledge of damage processes. The materials combine aspects of experimental, theoretical and computational investigations with an emphasis on the direct applications in engineering.
The book was comprised of the papers presented at the conference "New Methods of Damage and Failure Analysis of Structural Parts" (November 01-04, 2016, Yokohama, Japan).
The book covers a wide range of topics: Fracture Mechanics, Failure analysis, Composites, Multiscale Modelling, Micromechanics, Structural Health Monitoring, Damage Tolerance, Corrosion, Creep, Non-linear problems, Dynamic Fracture, Residual Stress, Environmental effects, Crack Propagation, Metallic and Concrete Materials, Probabilistic Aspects, Computer Modeling Methods (Finite Elements, Boundary Elements and Meshless), Microstructural and Multiscale Aspects.
The 127 papers are grouped as follows:
Chapter 1: Aerodynamics and Aeronautic;
Chapter 2: Fluid Dynamics, CFD and other Computational Methods;
Chapter 3: Computational Techniques, Simulation and Numerical Analysis;
Chapter 4: Dynamics and Vibration;

These proceedings consist of the 69 papers which were submitted to the 2012 International Workshop on Materials for Energy Conversion and Storage which was held on March 23-25 in Shenzhen, China. The goal of this workshop was to provide a forum where researchers, engineers and students could discuss their latest research results and exchange experimental conclusions concerning the latest developments in the field of new energy materials.
The 13th NOCMAT Conference continued to provide a forum where researchers, governmental and non-governmental agencies could introduce their research results concerning innovations in the field of low-cost energy-saving materials which are renewable and locally available: such as bamboo, soil fibers and cement alternatives. Also covered were technologies which make use of such non-conventional materials as natural fibers and agricultural and industrial residues in a more cost-effective, durable, environment-friendly, energy-efficient and sustainable manner.
This special issue of Advanced Materials Research contains a selection of high-quality research papers presented at the 14th International Conference on Advances in Materials and Processing Technologies (AMPT) held in Istanbul, Turkey, on July 13-16th, 2011. The papers are related mainly to materials and processing technologies, and the aim of the book is to provide a basis for the identification of new research and development needs in the fields of advanced engineering materials and manufacturing technologies.
