The contributions to this special collection cover a wide range of subject areas related to EPD and reflect the impressive versatility of that technique for materials processing. The topics discussed range from theoretical studies of the fundamental mechanisms of EPD, to novel techniques which exploit EPD for the efficient and cost-effective fabrication of a variety of advanced materials.

Description: The extensively peer-reviewed contents of this book cover the topics of engineering thermophysics, thermal engineering, power machinery and engineering, fluid machinery and engineering, HVAC, air-conditioning and refrigeration, power systems and automation, high-voltage and insulation technology, electrical theory and new technology, power electronics and power drives. The work is an invaluable guide to these subjects

Description: The 22 peer-reviewed papers collected here together offer a plenitude of up-to-date information on “Ceramic Thin Films and Coatings for Protective, Tribological and Multifunctional Applications”. The papers are conveniently arranged into ADVANCES IN DEPOSITION, SURFACE MODIFICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION, PROTECTIVE COATINGS IN OXIDIZING AND HARSH ENVIRONMENTS, THIN FILMS AND COATINGS FOR TRIBOLOGICAL AND MULTIFUNCTIONAL APPLICATIONS.

Description: Functionally Graded Materials (FGMs) are multifunctional materials which exhibit spatial variations in composition and microstructure; created for the specific purpose of achieving variations in thermal, structural or functional properties. They are presently at the forefront of materials research and are receiving worldwide attention. They enjoy a broad range of application; including, for example, biomechanical, automotive, aerospace, mechanical, civil, nuclear and naval engineering. New applications are continually being discovered and developed.
