Special Structural and Functional Materials

Modern structural and functional materials are essential for modern production and engineering and the cutting edge production technologies require application of the improved materials to achieve the intended results necessary for progress and development in the said industries. For that purpose, research and analysis of such materials and their properties are crucial as they help to understand how the materials perform under different conditions and improve their characteristics in accordance with the intended targets. Corrosion resistance and analysis of materials damage state and durability, methods of green synthesis functional nanoparticles, properties and application of shape memory alloys, and analysis of the possibility of the application the abrasive waterjet garnet wastes in concrete production are the main topics related to the materials properties research that are presented to the readers. This will be helpful for specialists in materials science from many production branches, including construction and engineering.
