Mesoscale Models
The book helps to answer the following questions: How far have the understanding and mesoscale modeling advanced in recent decades, what are the key open questions that require further research and what are the mathematical and physical requirements for a mesoscale model intended to provide either insight or a predictive engineering tool? It is addressed to young researchers including doctoral students, postdocs and early career faculty,
Generalized Continua and Dislocation Theory
Defects, dislocations and the general theory.- Approaches to generalized continua.- Generalized continuum modelling of crystal plasticity.- Introduction to discrete dislocation dynamics. The book contains four lectures on generalized continua and dislocation theory, reflecting the treatment of the subject at different scales. G. Maugin provides a continuum formulation of defects at the heart of which lies the notion of the material configuration and the material driving forces of in-homogeneities such as dislocations, disclinations, point defects, cracks, phase-transition fronts and shock waves. C. Sansour and S. Skatulla start with a compact treatment of linear transformation groups with subsequent excursion into the continuum theory of generalized continua. After a critical assessment a unified framework of the same is presented. The next contribution by S. Forest gives an account on generalized crystal plasticity. Finally, H. Zbib provides an account of dislocation dynamics and illustrates its fundamental importance at the smallest scale. In three contributions extensive computational results of many examples are presented.
Dislocations in Solids
New models for dislocation structure and motion are presented for nanocrystals, nucleation at grain boundaries, shocked crystals, interphase interfaces, quasicrystals, complex structures with non-planar dislocation cores, and colloidal crystals. A review of experimentally established main features of the magnetoplastic effect with their physical interpretation explains many diverse results of this type. The model has many potential applications for forming processes influenced by magnetic fields. - Dislocation model for the magnetoplastic effect - New mechanism for dislocation nucleation and motion in nanocrystals - New models for the dislocation structure of interfaces between crystals with differing crystallographic structure - A unified view of dislocations in quasicrystals, with a new model for dislocation motion - A general model of dislocation behavior in crystals with non-planar dislocation cores - Dislocation properties at high velocities - Dislocations in colloidal crystals
Handbook of Materials Modeling
The first reference of its kind in the rapidly emerging field of computational approachs to materials research, this is a compendium of perspective-providing and topical articles written to inform students and non-specialists of the current status and capabilities of modelling and simulation. From the standpoint of methodology, the development follows a multiscale approach with emphasis on electronic-structure, atomistic, and mesoscale methods, as well as mathematical analysis and rate processes. Basic models are treated across traditional disciplines, not only in the discussion of methods but also in chapters on crystal defects, microstructure, fluids, polymers and soft matter. Written by a...
Innovative Lightweight and High-Strength Alloys
Innovative Lightweight and High Strength Alloys: Multiscale Integrated Processing, Experimental, and Modeling Techniques provides multiscale processing, experimental and modeling techniques overviews and perspectives that highlight current roadblocks to optimal design of new alloys alongside solutions. Critical microstructural, chemical and mechanical aspects are considered with techniques for significantly improving mechanical properties. Case studies, applications and hands-on techniques that can be put into immediate practice are included throughout. Sections cover processing techniques for various alloys, including aluminum, titanium, martensitic, austenitic, and others. Additive manufac...
Continuum Scale Simulation of Engineering Materials
This book fills a gap by presenting our current knowledge and understanding of continuum-based concepts behind computational methods used for microstructure and process simulation of engineering materials above the atomic scale. The volume provides an excellent overview on the different methods, comparing the different methods in terms of their respective particular weaknesses and advantages. This trains readers to identify appropriate approaches to the new challenges that emerge every day in this exciting domain. Divided into three main parts, the first is a basic overview covering fundamental key methods in the field of continuum scale materials simulation. The second one then goes on to l...
The Transmission Electron Microscope
This book The Transmission Electron Microscope abundantly illustrates necessary insight and guidance of this powerful and versatile material characterization technique with complete figures and thorough explanations. The second edition of the book presents deep understanding of new techniques from introduction to advance levels, covering in-situ transmission electron microscopy, electron and focused ion beam microscopy, and biological diagnostic through TEM. The chapters cover all major aspects of transmission electron microscopy and their uses in material characterization with special emphasis on both the theoretical and experimental aspects of modern electron microscopy techniques. It is believed that this book will provide a solid foundation of electron microscopy to the students, scientists, and engineers working in the field of material science and condensed matter physics.
Damage and Interfacial Debonding in Composites
Written by leading authorities in the field of damage and micromechanics of composites, this book deals mainly with the damage impaired in composites due to different types of loading. It examines the different types of damage in composites in the fiber, matrix, debonding and delamination. It also reviews the theoretical characterization of damage, its experimental determination as well as the numerical simulation of damage.
Multiscale Modeling and Simulation of Composite Materials and Structures
This book presents the state-of-the-art in multiscale modeling and simulation techniques for composite materials and structures. It focuses on the structural and functional properties of engineering composites and the sustainable high performance of components and structures. The multiscale techniques can be also applied to nanocomposites which are important application areas in nanotechnology. There are few books available on this topic.
Chemistry at Extreme Conditions
Chemistry at Extreme Conditions covers those chemical processes that occur in the pressure regime of 0.5–200 GPa and temperature range of 500–5000 K and includes such varied phenomena as comet collisions, synthesis of super-hard materials, detonation and combustion of energetic materials, and organic conversions in the interior of planets. The book provides an insight into this active and exciting field of research. Written by top researchers in the field, the book covers state of the art experimental advances in high-pressure technology, from shock physics to laser-heating techniques to study the nature of the chemical bond in transient processes. The chapters have been conventionally o...
