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

Biological materials: Structure and mechanical properties

TL;DR: In this article, the basic building blocks are described, starting with the 20 amino acids and proceeding to polypeptides, polysaccharides, and polyprotein-saccharide.
Journal ArticleDOI

Strengthening Materials by Engineering Coherent Internal Boundaries at the Nanoscale

TL;DR: An approach to optimize strength and ductility is outlined by identifying three essential structural characteristics for boundaries: coherency with surrounding matrix, thermal and mechanical stability, and smallest feature size finer than 100 nanometers.

Dynamic and post-dynamic recrystallization under hot, cold and severe plastic deformation conditions

TL;DR: In this paper, the evolution of the new microstructures produced by two types of dynamic recrystallization is reviewed, including those brought about by severe plastic deformation (SPD).

The onset of twinning in metals: a constitutive description

TL;DR: In this article, a constitutive expression for the twinning stress in BCC metals is developed using dislocation emission from a source and the formation of pile-ups, as rate-controlling mechanism.

Quantum properties of atomic-sized conductors

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the results in the context of related developments, including Andreev reflection, shot noise, conductance quantization and dynamical Coulomb blockade.

The mechanics of crystals and textured polycrystals

TL;DR: In this article, Taylor and Bishop-Hill analyses of yield loci are used to calculate the maximum virtual work of a single crystal with respect to a single crystals pair, and the effect of twinning on the yield.

Fundamentals of metal-matrix composites

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the properties of micromechanisms and the mechanics of failure of failure in the context of process-based characterization of microma. But they do not discuss their application.

Mathematical Theory Of Elasticity

W. G. Bickley
- 01 Dec 1946 - 
TL;DR: Sokolnikoff's book as discussed by the authors differs greatly from Southwell, Timoshenko, and Love in spirit and content, and is symptomatic of the change in outlook of American mathematics over the past few decades.
