Description:

This issue from the topic series “Corrosion” contains articles published by Trans Tech Publications in 2017 - 2020. The volume covers many aspects of the corrosive behaviour of metallic biomaterials - from corrosion resistance studies to biocompatible coatings. We hope this collection will be useful and interesting to a broad audience of researchers and engineers from the area of development and research properties of metallic biomaterials and practitioners who utilize implantable and non-implantable devices.

Description: This volume was compiled from the proceedings of the 13th International Conference on the Physical Properties and Application of Advanced Materials (ICPMAT), which was held at Hanoi University of Science and Technology, Vietnam from September 4 to 7, 2018. The presented collection of papers contains the newest research results and achievements in the field of physical properties and the application of advanced structural and functional materials. We hope this collection will be interesting and useful for many specialists from the area of materials science and metallurgical technologies.

Description: This is special topic volume “Recent Trends in Mass Transport in Solids and Liquids” focuses on the mass transport in its broadest sense spanning the atomic scale right up to the macro scale. There is also a special focus on real engineering applications of mass transport.

Description: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters BCI (WoS).
Heat transfer plays major role in many technical devises or in the formation of new materials. Heat transfer is based in three phenomena, namely conduction, convection and radiation. Understanding heat transfer at many levels, from atomic to macro, and its interaction with other physical phenomena has therefore long attracted the attention of many researchers in engineering and materials science and related disciplines. The present topical volume on "Heat Transfer Processes in Engineering Materials" captures a representative cross-section of some of the recent advances in the area of heat transfer. Reflecting the enormous breadth of the area, the range of topics covered is accordingly very large. Topics include the development and modification of the microstructure of materials. Technical applications such as casting problems, coal drying, air cooling systems and pyrolytic boilers. The prediction methods range from analytical to numerical methods such as the finite element method, the finite difference method and molecular dynamics simulation.

Description: The 15 peer-reviewed papers collected here together offer a plenitude of up-to-date information on “Next Generation Micro/Nano Systems”.
Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
The papers are conveniently arranged into: Chapter 1: Physical, Chemical and Optical MEMS, Chapter 2: Radiofrequency MEMS, Chapter 3: Micro/Nano Fluidics.

Description: This periodical edition includes peer-reviewed papers based on results of scientific research and engineering solutions in different areas of modern engineering science.

Description: The review and research papers presented in this volume may be subdivided into three aims:
(i) the investigation and modelling of interfacial structure (ii) efforts to correlate structure/property relationships and (iii) phenomenological descriptions of particular interfacial properties The conference focussed on four objectives: 1.Grain Boundaries Structure and Properties 2.Dynamical and Mechanical Properties 3.Heterophase Interfaces 4.Electrical Properties and Superconductors.
