In the humble opinion of the author, this understanding is best achieved in two stages. First, thestudent should be exposed to the basic principles of Continuum Mechanics. Detailed coverage of (3D)Stress, Strain, General Principles, and Constitutive Relations is essential. In he[r]

The dielectric constant was found todecrease with increasing Zr content due to the larger-sized ionic substitution that limited dipole movement.Ferroelectric properties also[r]

Multiwall tubes have two advantages over their single-wall cousins. The multishell structure isstiffer than the single-wall one, especially in compression. Large-scale syntheses by enhancedchemical vapor deposition (CVD) processes are many, while for single-wall tubes, only the RiceHiPco process app[r]

The properties of a novel material can arise from two key factors: first, the chemical composition 1.16 of the material and second, its physical size and shape. As scientists exert ever more sophisticated control over molecular level organisation, the morphology of materials
