Biomimetics in Materials Science provides a comprehensive
theoretical and practical review of biomimetic materials with
self-healing, self-lubricating and self-cleaning properties. These
three topics are closely related and constitute rapidly developing
areas of study. The field of self-healing materials requires a new
conceptual understanding of this biomimetic technology, which is in
contrast to traditional engineering processes such as wear and
fatigue. Biomimetics in Materials Science is the first monograph to
be devoted to these materials. A new theoretical framework for
these processes is presented based on the concept of multi-scale
structure of entropy and non-equilibrium thermodynamics, together
with a detailed review of the available technology. The latter
includes experimental, modeling, and simulation results obtained on
self-healing/lubricating/cleaning materials since their emergence
in the past decade.
