Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Materials for Transportation Technology EUROMAT - Volume 1 Edited by P.-J. Winkler Engineering progress essentially depends on the availability and the intelligent use of materials. For many key industry areas, Europe constitutes a premier place for the development of new materials and their applications. EUROMAT '99, the biannual meeting of the Federation of European Materials Societies is the most comprehensive European event to demonstrate the wideranging interdisciplinary use of materials. A selection of the best papers presented here have been united in this 13-volume set, thus providing a survey of the latest developments in research and application in the entire field of engineering materials and advanced production technologies. Light design, high safety and comfort, and environmental compatibility are the requirements which influence the use of materials in automobiles. In the aerospace industry, there is today a strong necessity to substantially reduce development time and costs. Rail vehicles and ships are characterized by extremely long lifetime and high mileages. The achievement of these different objectives relies on the availability of novel or improved materials and related processes.

Download or read book Euromat 99 Microstructures Mechanical Properties and Processes written by Yves Bréchet and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2000-07-13 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relation between microstructures and mechanical properties has always been a challenge for materials science. Modelling the formation, properties and long term stability of microstructures is one of the most impressive and promising advances of modern materials science. This book presents recent advances and challenges in this fast evolving cross disciplinary field. It addresses applications of classical physical metallurgy, and the need for new modelling approaches, both on the analytical viewpoint and on the simulation side.
Download or read book Euromat 99 Interface Controlled Materials written by M. Rühle and published by Wiley-VCH. This book was released on 2000 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A common feature of advanced functional materials - such as thin films, layered structures and all kinds of nanoscale materials (ultrafine powders, polycrystals, nanocomposites, nanoporous or nanotubular materials) - is that their properties are mainly influenced by the structure and composition of their surfaces and interfaces. This book discusses the processing, fabrication, structure, properties and applications of such interface-controlled materials, highlighting the problem of determining the structure and properties of these advanced materials by different techniques.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Functional materials, often called smart or advanced materials, offer new combinations of physical properties (e.g., electrical, optical or magnetic) that make them attractive for use in such modern high-tech industries as telecommunications or microelectronics. In this book, the fundamentals of functional materials from all classes of materials - ceramics, polymers, metals and alloys - are discussed as well as their applications in information technology, fuel cells, systems for renewable energy and sensors and actuators
Download or read book Euromat 99 Materials for Buildings and Structures written by F. H. Wittmann and published by Wiley-VCH. This book was released on 2000 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building materials are experiencing degradation phenomena due to the long-term action of the atmospheric components. The understanding of the transport characteristics in concrete is a key issue to mitigate the deleterious consequences. Conventional cement-based materials suffer from a lack of ductility. However, modern cement compositions, fiber materials and additions allow to engineer new products adjusted to the purpose. These and several key topics for modern civil engineering are discussed in this book.
Download or read book Euromat 99 Steels and Materials for Power Plants written by Peter Neumann and published by Wiley-VCH. This book was released on 2000-09-11 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Steels are by far the most important construction materials for many applications. Many modern concepts of materials science are being used in steels, e.g., in micro-alloyed steels minute amounts of alloying elements form nanoscale carbides to yield superior strength values. All of these mechanisms have to be controlled in the production facilities on a scale of hundreds of tons. This book addresses these new concepts for improving the efficiency of production technologies

Download or read book Euromat 99 Surface Engineering written by Heinz Dimigen and published by Wiley-VCH. This book was released on 2000-09-08 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surface technology is a truly interdisciplinary topic in materials science. Nearly every component - no matter whether made of steel, metal, alloys, ceramics or plastic - is coated prior to its application. The integration of protective coatings into the design of complex components is becoming increasingly important and there is a great demand for novel coating processes, comprising surface modification and deposition. Modern coatings are being developed that can meet several functional requirements simultaneously, e.g., transparent and electrically conductive coatings for display applications. A special feature of this book is the section on laser surface treatment.

TiAl-based alloys show good high-temperature specific stiffness and strength, while other intermetallics, such as the iron aluminides and silicide-based materials, are especially attractive due to their good corrosion or oxidation resistance. This book reviews activities that relate to improvements in processing methods and advances in the understanding of the property/microstructure relationship.
Download or read book Euromat 99 Metal Matrix Composites and Metallic Foams written by T. W. Clyne and published by Wiley-VCH. This book was released on 2000-07-13 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has become clearer which types of MMC systems are entering significant industrial use and what questions concerning their production and performance are of most pressing concern. In addition, intensive attention has been directed recently to metallic foams. These can offer attractive combinations of properties, including high specific stiffness and good energy-absorbing properties, particularly under compressive loading. For both, MMCs and metallic foams, there is intense interest in processing aspects, particularly in terms of cost minimisation consistent with retention of desirable microstructural features.

Download or read book Euromat 99 Ceramics written by G. Müller and published by Wiley-VCH. This book was released on 2000-08-15 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today the development of technical ceramics is mostly oriented towards a better control of the microstructure and resulting properties of these materials. New forms of powders and microstructures are developed to enable the usage of ceramics in new application areas. This goal may be reached by producing accurately reproducible reactive powders, development of adapted sintering processes, and by introducing new forms of composites. In addition, new methods offer new opportunities for materials development.
