Description: The aim of this collection by results of the 4th International Conference on Advanced Materials Design and Mechanics (ICAMDM2016, August 20-21, 2016, Jeju Island, South Korea) is to present the latest results of research in advanced materials, their application and related technologies. Presented papers will be useful for many scientists and engineers.

Description: The main objective of this book is to present research advances in the field of polymers and polymer-based composites, from state-of-the-art research and development to characterization, processing and manufacturing, numerical modeling and many new and emerging applications of polymeric materials.

Description:

The present collection of papers from 12^th International Conference „Local Mechanical Properties“ which was held on November 04.- 06.2015 in Liberec, Czech Republic presents current publications of conference participants from several countries .

Besides the traditional research in area of mechanical properties of different metallic materials, composites, polymers was focused attention also on research of thin layers and nanomaterials. The significant potential of application of these new materials significantly affects on research activities of academia. Future application of innovative materials in different areas of human activities, already requires from researchers the definition of materials properties on atomic level. Conference by its content contributed to the deepening of knowledge about the internal structure of various materials, their mechanical and tribological properties.

Description: This book comprises 178 papers presented in the Ninth International Conference on High-Performance Ceramics (CICC-9), which was held from November 4 to 7, 2013, in Guilin, China. It covered most aspects of field of high-performance ceramics (advanced ceramics), including processing, microstructures and properties of structural and functional ceramics. Some papers concerning the ceramics for next generation nuclear energy were included. Especially, in the papers given an overview of the most recent development in high-performance ceramics in China.

Description: This special volume will be useful for wide range scientific researchers and engineers from area of construction materials and structures.

Description: The papers are devoted to estimation of salt rocks’ long-term strength in natural conditions, mathematical modeling of underworked rock strata failure process, analysis of thermal conditions within the flow conduits of MHD-devices.

Description: Perhaps the best-known aspect of the behavior of metals, and indeed of most materials, is that they weaken with temperature. This weakening is however a problem in some applications. Only tungsten for instance, with its naturally high melting-point, was suitable for the manufacture of the filaments of incandescent light-bulbs. Even then, it was necessary to add oxide particles having a yethigher melting-point in order to prevent the weakening effect of grain-growth. These are alloys however which can be said to be weakened by heat, but nevertheless ‘hang on’ to enough strength to perform their task. The real boon would be an alloy which actually, as it were, ‘rose to the occasion’. Such a class of alloy exists, and is the subject of this book. It brings together everything which is known about the yield strength anomaly; both theoretically and experimentally.
