Description: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters BCI (WoS).
Engineering design, whether applied to components, products, systems or processes, involves the development and application of technology and scientific knowledge to a complex multidisciplinary innovation process. Research in design methodology involves both the development of new engineering design methods and the study of the science of design methods and design practice. The present 18 peer-reviewed papers gather together the latest knowledge related to the “Innovating Processes” title of the volume.

Structural Analysis of Advanced Materials

Edited by: Moussa Karama

Online since: July 2010

Description: The increased use of advanced materials in high efficiency structures – electronic devices, medical equipment, aircraft and vehicles – requires improved reliability, resistance to breakdown and improved failure and life-span forecasting for a wide range of loading conditions. The development of materials having advanced structural properties is becoming a key factor in industrial and technological progress.
