Accompanying the present trend of engineering systems aimed at size reduction and design at microscopic/nanoscopic length scales, Mechanics of Dislocation Fields describes the self-organization of dislocation ensembles at small length scales and its consequences on the overall mechanical behavior of crystalline bodies. The account of the fundamental interactions between the dislocations and other microscopic crystal defects is based on the use of smooth field quantities and powerful tools from the mathematical theory of partial differential equations. The resulting theory is able to describe the emergence of dislocation microstructures and their evolution along complex loading paths. Scale transitions are performed between the properties of the dislocation ensembles and the mechanical behavior of the body. Several variants of this overall scheme are examined which focus on dislocation cores, electromechanical interactions of dislocations with electric charges in dielectric materials, the intermittency and scale-invariance of dislocation activity, grain-to-grain interactions in polycrystals, size effects on mechanical behavior and path dependence of strain hardening.

Was verandert die Welt? Wer hat denn nun die Welt am starksten verandert: die Politiker, die Ideen in die Tat umsetzten, oder die Philosophen, von denen sie stammten? Oder vielleicht sogar jemand ganz anderes? Etwa der Erfinder des Papiers, ohne das weder Buchdruck noch Reformation denkbar waren? Oder auch diejenigen, die Eisen und Bronze hervorbrachten und damit ganze Epochen begrundeten. Dieses Buch belegt eindrucksvoll: Unsere Geschichte ist immer auch die der Materialien, die wir verwenden. Geschichte neu geordnet Systematisch geht der Autor der Frage nach, wie die Entwicklung von Kulturen und die Moglichkeiten der Materialherstellung zusammenhangen. Er durchstreift die Jahrtausende und setzt dabei bestimmte Zeiten und Materialgruppen zueinander in Beziehung. Dabei beleuchtet er nicht zuletzt spannende Details von Herstellung und Verarbeitung. Alternative Realitaten Und auch Gedankenspielen gibt das Buch Raum, denn die Frage >Was ware wenn?< beendet jedes seiner Kapitel. Unterhaltsam und lehrreich sind diese Spekulationen uber einen moglichen Gang der Dinge fur den Fall, dass es bestimmte Materialinnovationen nicht gegeben hatte. In diesen Passagen wird besonders deutlich, wie gro? die Bedeutung des >materiellen< Aspekts von Geschichte ist – ohne den im Ubrigen auch solche Errungenschaften wie Kunst und moderne Medizin undenkbar waren.

Epoxy resins are polymers which are extensively used as coating materials due to their outstanding mechanical properties and good handling characteristics. A disadvantage results from their high cross-link density: they are brittle and have very low resistance to crack growth and propagation. This necessitates the toughening of the epoxy matrix without impairing its good thermomechanical properties. The final properties of the polymer depend on their structure. The book focuses on the microstructural aspects in the modification of epoxy resins with low molecular weight liquid rubbers, one of the prime toughening agents commonly employed. The book follows thoroughly the reactions of elastomer-modified epoxy resins from their liquid stage to the network formation. It gives an in-depth view into the cure reaction, phase separation and the simultaneous development of the morphology. Chapters on ageing, failure analysis and life cycle analysis round out the book.

Nanomaterials are defined as materials in which at least one length dimension is below 100 nanometers. In this size regime, these materials exhibit particular – and tunable – optical, electrical or mechanical properties that are not present at the macro-scale. This opens up the possibility for a plethora of applications at the interface of materials, chemistry, physics and biology, many of which have already entered the commercial realm. When nanomaterials are blended with other materials not necessarily in the nanometer regime, the resulting nanocomposites can exhibit dramatically different properties than the bulk material alone, leading to an enhanced performance in terms of, for example, increased thermal and mechanical stability. This book presents the synthesis, characterization and applications of nanomaterials and nanocomposites, covering zero-dimensional, elemental nanoparticles, one-dimensional materials such as nanorods and nanowhiskers, two-dimensional materials such as graphene and boron nitride as well as three-dimensional materials such as fullerenes, polyhedral oligomers and zeolites, complemented by bio-based nanomaterials, e.g., cellulose, chitin, starch and proteins. Introductory chapters on the state-of-the-art of nanomaterial research and the chemistry and physics in nanoscience and nanotechnology round off the book.
