Advanced Materials Research

Special topic volume with invited peer reviewed papers only

As one of the eighteen field-specific reports comprising the comprehensive scope of the strategic general report of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, this sub-report addresses long-range planning for developing science and technology in the field of advanced materials science. They each craft a roadmap for their sphere of development to 2050. In their entirety, the general and sub-group reports analyze the evolution and laws governing the development of science and technology, describe the decisive impact of science and technology on the modernization process, predict that the world is on the eve of an impending S&T revolution, and call for China to be fully prepared for this new round of S&T advancement. Based on the detailed study of the demands on S&T innovation in China's modernization, the reports draw a framework for eight basic and strategic systems of socio-economic development with the support of science and technology, work out China's S&T roadmaps for the relevant eight basic and strategic systems in line with China's reality, further detail S&T initiatives of strategic importance to China's modernization, and provide S&T decision-makers with comprehensive consultations for the development of S&T innovation consistent with China's reality. Supported by illustrations and tables of data, the reports provide researchers, government officials and entrepreneurs with guidance concerning research directions, the planning process, and investment. Founded in 1949, the Chinese Academy of Sciences is the nation's highest academic institution in natural sciences. Its major responsibilities are to conduct research in basic and technological sciences, to undertake nationwide integrated surveys on natural resources and ecological environment, to provide the country with scientific data and consultations for government's decision-making, to undertake government-assigned projects with regard to key S&T problems in the process of socio-economic development, to initiate personnel training, and to promote China's high-tech enterprises through its active engagement in these areas.

Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS). These proceedings comprise the refereed papers presented at the International Conference on Advanced Material Research (ICAMR 2011) held on January 21 - 23, 2011 in Chongqing, China. The main goal of this, and other events, was to provide an international scientific forum for the exchange of new ideas in a number of fields via in-depth discussions with peers from around the world. Both inward research; core areas of advanced materials research and outward research; multi-disciplinary, inter-disciplinary research and applications were covered; thus providing a thorough overview of the subject.

This book provides a thorough introduction to the essential topics in modern materials science. It brings together the spectrum of materials science topics, spanning inorganic and organic materials, nanomaterials, biomaterials, and alloys within a single cohesive and comprehensive resource. Synthesis and processing techniques, structural and crystallographic configurations, properties, classifications, process mechanisms, applications, and related numerical problems are discussed in each chapter. End-of-chapter summaries and problems are included to deepen and reinforce the reader's comprehension. Provides a cohesive and comprehensive reference on a wide range of materials and processes in modern materials science; Presents material in an engaging manner to encourage innovative practices and perspectives; Includes chapter summaries and problems at the end of every chapter for reinforcement of concepts.

Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS). The objective of ICAMR 2012 was to provide a forum for the discussion of new developments, recent progress and innovations in the field of Materials Science. The papers are divided into twenty-two sections, covering such topics as materials behaviour, casting and solidification, coatings and surface engineering, composites, machining technology, nanomaterials, biomedical manufacturing, sustainable manufacturing processes, manufacturing planning and scheduling, modelling and simulation, computer-aided design and engineering, semiconductor materials engineering, laser-based manufacturing and mechanical and electronic engineering control.

This 1166th volume of the journal "Advanced Materials Research" presents the periodic edition from the series "Advanced Materials and Technologies". The collection was compiled from peer-reviewed stand-alone papers describing the results of scientific research and engineering solutions dealing with actual problems in applied materials science in mechanical engineering, electronics, pharmacology, and construction. Published articles will be helpful for engineers, students, and academic staff.
