Description: The present work comprises selected peer-reviewed papers from the International Mechanical Properties and Structural Materials Conference (IMPSMC 2012), held on the 17 to 19^th August 2012, in Shenyang, Liaoning, China. The 128 selected papers are grouped into two chapters: 1: Mechanical Engineering; 2: Materials Engineering. They offer an up-to-date view of the field.

Description: These peer-reviewed papers deal with the scientific and technical aspects of ceramic materials, metallic materials, alloys, polymers and computational materials science. The aim of the proceedings was to provide up-to-date data for scientists and engineers working in the materials field. The book will also be a good learning resource for graduate students in the related specialties of Chemistry and Materials Science.

X-ray powder diffraction is a non-destructive technique widely applied for the characterisation of crystalline materials. The method has been traditionally used for phase identification, quantitative analysis and the determination of structure imperfections. In recent years, applications have been extended to new areas, such as the determination of crystal structures and the extraction of three-dimensional microstructural properties.

The proceedings of the 6th European Conference on Powder iffraction cover 191 papers in the areas of X-ray and neutron diffraction (36 papers). Chapters on Method Development, Development of Instruments and Techniques, Software, Synchrotron and Neutron Diffraction offer new ideas on subjects as Microstructure of Materials, Determination of Crystallographic Structure, Quantitative Phase Analysis, and Texture & Coarse Grains. Developments in analysis using the X-ray lens –a bundle of glass capillaries- and single or double X-ray mirrors continue.

Description: Metastable and Nanocrystalline Materials offer enormous technological potential and, for this reason, they are the subject of intense world-wide research.
Among the various topics covered in the present volume are the synthesis and processing of materials using mechanical alloying, grinding, mechanosynthesis and mechanochemistry; the structural characterisation of nanophase materials and the structural evolution caused by mechanical treatments; the magnetic and mechanical properties of nanocrystalline materials; and the basic mechanisms of fabrication processes.
