Book Description
Ferroic materials have found application in both sensing and actuating devices such as detectors, high-and low-frequency transducers, capacitors, optical modulators, shutters, and photorestrictive and electrostrictive devices. The application areas of ferroics in single-crystal, bulk ceramics, thin-film, and composite forms have been expanding quite rapidly in recent years. As a result, new materials design and fabrication techniques are needed to satisfy the new emerging applications of these 'smart' materials and structures. With the drive of new national and international initiatives in the areas of advanced materials and technology, smart structures and systems, environmental benefication programs, etc., it is highly desirable to review and project the direction in materials design, preparation, and sensing properties.

High Pressure Surface Science and Engineering
Author: Yury Gogotsi
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 042952501X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 499
Book Description
In many instances of mechanical interaction between two materials, the physical contact affects only the outermost surface layer, with little discernible influence on the bulk of the material. The resultant high pressures in these localised regimes can induce surface structural changes such as deformation, phase transformation and amorphization.

Smart Structures Theory
Author: Inderjit Chopra
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 052186657X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 925
Book Description
This book focuses on smart materials and structures, which are also referred to as intelligent, adaptive, active, sensory, and metamorphic. The ultimate goal is to develop biologically inspired multifunctional materials with the capability to adapt their structural characteristics, monitor their health condition, perform self-diagnosis and self-repair, morph their shape, and undergo significant controlled motion.

Structure-Property Relations
Author: R. E. Newnham

ISBN: 364250017X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
As a boy I loved to build model airplanes, not the snap-together plastic models of today, but the old-fashioned Spads and Sopwith Camels made of balsa wood and tissue paper. I dreamed of EDDIE RICKENBACKER and dogfights with the Red Baron as I sat there sniffing airplane glue. Mother thought I would never grow up to make an honest living, and mothers are never wrong. Thirty years later I sit in a research laboratory surrounded by crystal models and dream of what it would be like to be 1 A tall, to rearrange atoms with pick and shovel, and make funny things happen inside. Professor VON HIPPEL calls it "Molecular Engineering," the building of materials and devices to order: We begin to design materials with prescribed properties, to under stand the molecular causes of their failings, to build into them safe guards against such failure, and to arrive at true yardsticks of ultimate performance. No longer shackled to presently available materials, we are free to dream and find answers to unprecedented challenges. It is this revolutionary situation which makes scientists and engineers true allies in a great adventure of the human mind [1]. This book is about structure-property relationships, more especially applications of crystal chemistry to engineering problems. Faced with the task of finding new materials, the crystallographer uses ionic radii, crystal fields, anisotropic atomic groupings, and symmetry arguments as criteria in the materials selection process.
