Description: The IC-MSE 2022 was successfully virtually held in Suzhou, China, on May 25-27, 2022. The objective of the Conference is to provide a venue for researchers and practitioners in related fields from academia, industry and government to meet in a forum where the latest research results are presented and prospects for future developments in “materials science and engineering” are discussed. The articles coming from universities, research institutes and industries collected in this book present to the readers the recent advances in the field of materials science and engineering, including biomaterials and nanomaterials, chemical synthesis and materials processing technologies, properties' analysis of structural materials and elements in construction, design practice in mechatronics, etc.

Diffusionless Phase Transitions in Oxides

Edited by: C. Boulesteix

Online since: March 1995

Description: The relative importance of oxides in the field of materials is increasing every year, all over the world. The new or renewed basic and technological interest of ferroelectrics, ferroelastics, piezoelectrics, modulated structures and high-Tc superconductors provides excellent and well-know examples for the growing attention attracted by this class of materials. Most of the properties of these compounds are related to a phase transition phenomenon, so that phase transitions in oxides are today of the largest interest.
