Local Mechanical Properties IX

Edited by: Ladislav Pešek and Pavol Zubko

Online since: September 2013

Description: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
The special collection discusses recent results of research and development in the field of materials engineering, experimental methods, modeling, etc., with the aim to characterize mechanical properties of materials from nano to micro/meso-scale. Contributions on indentation and other methods for hardness and other mechanical properties assessment, measurement of deformations and stresses, time-dependent mechanical properties with related microstructure analyses (TEM/SEM, AFM, TERS, etc.) regardless of material type (metals, ceramics, plastics, biomaterials, concrete, etc.) are included.
