Download or read book Combinatorial Materials Science written by Marc D. Porter and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2007-08-17 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combinatorial Materials Science describes new developments and research results in catalysts, biomaterials, and nanomaterials, together with informatics approaches to the analysis of Combinatorial Science (CombiSci) data.

It is also a great text for graduate-level courses in materials science/engineering, polymer science, chemical engineering, and chemistry.

Book High Throughput Analysis

Download or read book High Throughput Analysis written by Radislav A. Potyrailo and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 642 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, edited by Potyrailo and Amis, addresses a new paradigm-shifting approach in the search for new materials-Combinatorial Materials Science. One way to consider such an approach is to imagine an adventurous chef who decides to look for new entrees by cooking food ingredients in many pots using different combinations in every pot, and boil ing, steaming, or frying them in various ways. Although most of the pots will not have the tastiest food ever devised, some recipes will taste intriguing, and some eventually will lead to a discovery of a new fascinating cuisine. Of course, having a skilled chef design the com binatorial formulation will certainly be helpful in ensuring a successful outcome. Similar to food, each engineering material is a complex product of its chemical composition, structure, and processing. Generally, each of these components matters---change one and you get another material. Most of these "new" materials will be less good than ones we use now since existing materials have been refined with the extensive work of scientists and engi neers. At the same time if one prepares diverse materials like our adventurous chef, chang ing material composition, processing conditions and time, etc. , some of these materials will be superior to existing ones and a few might represent breakout technology.

Book Materials Science and Engineering

Download or read book Materials Science and Engineering written by Radislav Potyrailo and published by Elsevier Inc. Chapters. This book was released on 2013-07-10 with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sensing materials play a critical role in advancing selectivity, response speed, and sensitivity of gas determinations with sensors. The desirable capabilities of sensing materials originate from their numerous functional parameters, which can be tailored to meet specific sensing needs. By increasing the structural and functional complexity of sensing materials, the ability to rationally define the precise requirements that will result in desired materials properties becomes increasingly limited. Combinatorial experimentation methodologies impact all areas of sensing materials research. This chapter demonstrates the broad applicability of combinatorial technologies in discovery and optimization of new sensing materials for gas detection. We discuss general principles of combinatorial materials screening, followed by the discussion of the opportunities facilitated by combinatorial technologies for discovery and optimization of new sensing materials. We further critically analyze results of sensing materials development using discrete and gradient materials arrays. The emphasis of this chapter is on the analysis of results focused on the improvements of sensor selectivity and long-term stability of sensing materials. Examples from a wide variety of sensors based on various energy-transduction principles that involve radiant, mechanical, and electrical types of energy demonstrate the impact of combinatorial methodologies across diverse kinds of sensing materials.

Book Materials Science and Engineering

Download or read book Materials Science and Engineering written by James N. Cawse and published by Elsevier Inc. Chapters. This book was released on 2013-07-10 with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Design of combinatorial and high-throughput experiments has continued to build on the progress of the last two decades. New variations of factorial and mixture designs have expanded their capability. Increasing attention is being paid to adapting designs to the constraints of the physical apparatus, in the form of split-plot methods or conscious understanding of the statistical penalties to be paid. Rapidly increasing computer power has allowed the use of more sophisticated algorithmic designs and evolutionary methods. Finally, descriptor-based design and analysis of data is making steady progress and there are hopes of its reaching a mature state in the coming decade.

Book Materials Research to Meet 21st Century Defense Needs

Download or read book Materials Research to Meet 21st Century Defense Needs written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2003-03-25 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In order to achieve the revolutionary new defense capabilities offered by materials science and engineering, innovative management to reduce the risks associated with translating research results will be needed along with the R&D. While payoff is expected to be high from the promising areas of materials research, many of the benefits are likely to be evolutionary. Nevertheless, failure to invest in more speculative areas of research could lead to undesired technological surprises. Basic research in physics, chemistry, biology, and materials science will provide the seeds for potentially revolutionary technologies later in the 21st century.

Download or read book Combinatorial Library written by Lisa B. English and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-02-04 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The continued successes of large- and small-scale genome sequencing projects are increasing the number of genomic targets available for drug d- covery at an exponential rate. In addition, a better understanding of molecular mechanisms—such as apoptosis, signal transduction, telomere control of ch- mosomes, cytoskeletal development, modulation of stress-related proteins, and cell surface display of antigens by the major histocompatibility complex m- ecules—has improved the probability of identifying the most promising genomic targets to counteract disease. As a result, developing and optimizing lead candidates for these targets and rapidly moving them into clinical trials is now a critical juncture in pharmaceutical research. Recent advances in com- natorial library synthesis, purification, and analysis techniques are not only increasing the numbers of compounds that can be tested against each specific genomic target, but are also speeding and improving the overall processes of lead discovery and optimization. There are two main approaches to combinatorial library production: p- allel chemical synthesis and split-and-mix chemical synthesis. These approaches can utilize solid- or solution-based synthetic methods, alone or in combination, although the majority of combinatorial library synthesis is still done on solid support. In a parallel synthesis, all the products are assembled separately in their own reaction vessels or microtiter plates. The array of rows and columns enables researchers to organize the building blocks to be c- bined, and provides an easy way to identify compounds in a particular well.
