This new volume examines the mathematical and experimental methods for advanced engineering materials and structures. It also helps to determine practical applications under a wide range of conditions, helping to set up what is needed to produce a new generation of new materials. The diversity of such mathematical models and experimental methods applied for different types of advanced materials and structures and their behavior is highlighted in this volume.
The subjects covered in this book include geospatial information systems (GIS) and networked sensors modeling, mathematical modeling in fluid and solid mechanics, deformations in a nonlocal isotropic thermoelastic materials, optical properties of solid materials, nanoscale and modern energy materials and devices, smart materials-based E-nose technology, and more.
New Advances in Materials Technologies: Experimental Characterizations, Theoretical Modeling and Field Practices is an essential reference that will be useful for researchers who specialize in advanced materials and structures, experimental mechanics of materials, mathematical modeling, and related fields of applied mathematics. This book is also suitable for post-graduate engineering students who need to have an overview on applied in mechanics of materials.
