Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Concise Encyclopedia of the Structure of Materials draws its content from the award-winning Encyclopedia of Materials: Science and Technology, and includes updates and revisions not available in the original set. Materials science and engineering is concerned with the relationship between the properties and structure of materials. In this context "structure" may be defined on the atomic scale in the case of crystalline materials, on the molecular scale (in the case of polymers, for example), or on the microscopic scale. Each of these definitions has been applied in making the present selection of articles. This volume includes eighty articles which deal with metals, polymers, ceramics and glasses, biomaterials, wood and paper, liquid crystals, as well as some more general features. Every article has been commissioned and written by an internationally recognized expert and provides a concise overview of a particular aspect of the field. Extensive bibliographies, cross-referencing and indexes guide the user to the most relevant reading in the primary literature. This customized collection of articles provides a handy reference for postgraduate research students, materials scientists and engineers with an interest in the structure of metals, polymers, ceramics and glasses, biomaterials, wood, paper, and liquid crystals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To use materials effectively, their composition, degree of perfection, physical and mechanical characteristics, and microstructure must be accurately determined. This concise encyclopledia covers the wide range of characterization techniques necessary to achieve this. Articles included are not only concerned with the characterization techniques of specific materials such as polymers, metals, ceramics and semiconductors but also techniques which can be applied to materials in general. The techniques described cover bulk methods, and also a number of specific methods to study the topography and composition of surface and near-surface regions. These techniques range from the well-established and traditional to the very latest including: atomic force microscopy; confocal optical microscopy; gamma ray diffractometry; thermal wave imaging; x-ray diffraction and time-resolved techniques. This unique concise encyclopedia comprises 116 articles by leading experts in the field from around the world to create the ideal guide for materials scientists, chemists and engineers involved with any aspect of materials characterization. With over 540 illustrations, extensive cross-referencing, approximately 900 references, and a detailed index, this concise encyclopedia will be a valuable asset to any materials science collection.
