Title: Advanced materials in machine design
Description: "This book is a collection of the accepted papers concerning Advanced Materials in Machine Design. Depending on the scale at which they are analyzed and used, we can talk about composites, nanocomposites, nanomaterials and intelligent materials, e.g. such as piezoelectric materials, magnetorestrictive materials, functional (Shape Memory Alloys - SMA) materials. Intelligent materials are an important aspect of modern science and technology with applications in mechanical engineering."--Preface.
