Mechanical Behaviour Of Nanostructured Materials

Download or read book Mechanical Behaviour of Nanostructured Materials written by D.G. Morris and published by Trans Tech Publications Ltd. This book was released on 1998-04-06 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The investigation of nanocrystalline materials has been an extremely active field during the past two decades as it promises to yield new and exciting properties, which will both test the scientific understanding of the behaviour of materials in general, and offer new scope for applications. While considerable progress has been made in basic understanding, the shift from fundamental science to technological application has been slow, especially with regard to exploitation of the mechanical behaviour of these materials.
