Description:

This book contains papers presented at the 25th International Conference on Material Forming (ESAFORM 2022, 27-29 April 2022, Portugal). The European Scientific Association for material FORMing - ESAFORM - is a non-profit scientific association founded in January 1997 with the aim of propagating knowledge and advances in topics connected to forming processes for all types of structural materials. The present volume covers a wide range of research results and engineering solutions in technologies of materials forming and will be useful for many researchers and engineers from the machinery production area.

Description:

The volume contains papers that present the last advances in the field of sustainable materials and structural elements in construction. This volume focuses on four main topics, ranging from the investigation of the mechanics of composite materials to the discussion of the important issues connected to durability and reliability, from the analysis of corrosion of rebars embedded in exotic matrices to assessing life cycle (LCA) and end-of-life provisions of partially recycled composites.
