Abstract
A balanced mechanics-materials approach and coverage of the latest developments in biomaterials and electronic materials, the new edition of this popular text is the most thorough and modern book available for upper-level undergraduate courses on the mechanical behavior of materials To ensure that the student gains a thorough understanding the authors present the fundamental mechanisms that operate at micro- and nano-meter level across a wide-range of materials, in a way that is mathematically simple and requires no extensive knowledge of materials This integrated approach provides a conceptual presentation that shows how the microstructure of a material controls its mechanical behavior, and this is reinforced through extensive use of micrographs and illustrations New worked examples and exercises help the student test their understanding Further resources for this title, including lecture slides of select illustrations and solutions for exercises, are available online at wwwcambridgeorg/97800521866758

Significance of stacking fault energy in bulk nanostructured materials: Insights from Cu and its binary alloys as model systems

TL;DR: In this paper, the stacking fault energy (SFE) of materials is considered as one of the most crucial factors primarily controlling which deformation mechanism plays an overwhelming role in accommodating the plasticity, and a profound understanding of the vital significance of SFE in NS materials can extend and enrich our comprehension of their structure-property relationship.

The β-relaxation in metallic glasses

TL;DR: The authors reviewed the features and mechanisms of β-relaxations, which are intrinsic and universal to supercooled liquids and glasses, and demonstrate their importance in understanding many crucial unresolved issues in glassy physics and materials science, including glass transition phenomena, mechanical properties, shearbanding dynamics and deformation mechanisms, diffusion and the breakdown of the Stokes-Einstein relation as well as crystallization and stability of glasses.
