Materials in Extreme Environments: Volume 929
Author: Daryush IlaPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
This book investigates the fundamental properties and response of materials in extreme environments such as static and dynamic high pressure, high strain and high strain-rates, high radiation and electromagnetic fields, high and low temperatures, corrosive conditions, environments causing embrittlement, and environments containing atomic oxygen. This is an extremely active and vibrant field of research, in particular because it is now possible to create laboratory conditions similar in pressure, temperature and radiation to those found in planetary interiors and in space. In addition, advanced simulation methods, coupled with high-performance computing platforms, now afford predictions - on a first-principles basis - of the properties of materials in extreme environments. Scientists from a broad spectrum of fields are represented, including space science, planetary science, high-pressure research, shock physics, ultrafast science, and energetic materials research.

Materials and Devices for Smart Systems II: Volume 888
Author: Yasubumi FuruyaPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 408
Book Description
Smart/intelligent systems is a primary technology for present and future applications in areas ranging from everyday life to aerospace missions, from civil to military environments, from robots to information technology. Smart materials are the critical foundation for high-performance smart devices, and smart devices are fundamental components for smart systems. The three cannot be separated. This book bridges the fields of smart materials, sensing and actuating devices, and intelligent systems, and provides an opportunity for researchers from all three arenas to channel information into a coherent, interdisciplinary community. Topics include: piezoelectric actuators; novel devices and systems; shape memory alloys and magnetostrictive devices; nanometer-scale processing and properties; piezoelectric materials; sensor materials and devices; and electroactive polymer actuators.
Surface Engineering for Manufacturing Applications: Volume 890
Author: Materials Research SocietyPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
Surface interactions and modifications have become increasingly critical for a broad range of manufacturing technologies. Applications can be in traditional manufacturing sectors and in manufacturing processes for microelectronics, optics, and micro-/nanoelectromechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS). Many applications demand engineered surfaces at different length scales that will function under extreme conditions. The goal of this book is to advance understanding of these diverse applications. In the field of tribological coatings, the increasing sophistication of coating processes to provide control over materials and composition gradients is being exploited to tailor properties such as adhesion, stresses, thermal barrier and wear resistance. Understanding the influence of nanostructure in coatings has become pivotal in the development of hard and wear-resistant materials. Modeling and simulation continue to make contributions to the understanding and predication of surface properties and surface interactions. Advances in this field have focused on the microstructure and organization of organic thin films. In tribology, the combination of modeling, with experimental probe techniques, is increasing our understanding of erosion and wear mechanisms.

ISBN:
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 390
Book Description
Combinatorial and high-throughput experimental approaches and related informatics, modeling and data-mining methods have permitted researchers to accelerate the pace at which new, complex materials and device systems are discovered, optimized and understood. Today, the development and application of these revolutionary approaches continue to grow and diversify. This book offers an international, interdisciplinary perspective for scientists and engineers interested in combinatorial, high-throughput and advanced informatics approaches to materials research. The range of disciplines includes materials science; chemistry; physics; electrical, chemical and mechanical engineering; materials modeling; and data systems engineering. Presentations share successful studies, and illuminate current and emerging challenges in areas including: the design and fabrication of combinatorial libraries for materials and devices; high-throughput characterization methods for such systems; automation of instrumentation and data analysis; advanced modeling and data mining techniques for rapid materials design and properties prediction; and data system design and software for combinatorial workflows.
