Physics and Mechanics of New Materials: Synthesis, Processing, and Emerging Applications

Abstract

This new volume covers new advances in materials science and engineering technology, focusing on practical rather than theoretical aspects that are useful for the design, fabrication, testing, and industrial application of advanced materials and structures. The first section of this book delivers a comprehensive overview of modern ferrites with special attention to their structure, types, and properties. It presents a comprehensive survey on ferrite materials with discussions of selected applications of modern ferrite materials in emerging technologies. In the second section, the impact of technological change upon the application of selected materials and energy resources are presented in detail. This includes discussions on 2D nanomaterials, bismuth ferrite, and barium titanate and how these can be put to practical use. In the last section of this volume, case studies in thermophysics and applied mechanics for engineering technology are presented that provide an examination of the various physical, chemical, and material properties of a range of modern materials. This research-oriented book, Physics and Mechanics of New Materials: Synthesis, Processing, and Emerging Applications, is an essential reference source intended for scientific researchers, faculty, and postgraduate and senior students who specialize in the field of materials science and applied mechanics of materials. © 2025 by Apple Academic Press, Inc.
