Advanced Materials: Physics, Mechanics and Applications [Paperback]

Advanced materials are the basis of modern science and technology. This proceedings volume presents a broad spectrum of studies of novel materials covering their processing techniques, physics, mechanics, and applications. The book is concentrated on nanostructures, ferroelectric crystals, materials and composites, materials for solar cells and also polymeric composites. Nanotechnology approaches, modern piezoelectric techniques and also latest achievements in materials science, condensed matter physics, mechanics of deformable solids and numerical methods are presented. Great attention is devoted to novel devices with high accuracy, longevity and extended possibilities to work in wide temperature and pressure ranges, aggressive media etc. The characteristics of materials and composites with improved properties opening new possibilities of various physical processes, in particular transmission and receipt of signals under water, are described.

The book is addressed to students, post-graduatestudents, scientists and engineers taking part in R&D of nano-materials,ferro-piezoelectrics and other advanced materials and composites presented inthe book, and also in manufacture of different devices based on them havingbroad applications in different areas of modern science and technique, inparticular in underwater communication.
