Advanced Bioceramics: Properties, Processing, and Applications
describes development of bioceramics and biocomposites, which are
used in bone tissue repair, remodelling, and regeneration. It
covers the fundamental aspects of materials science and
bioengineering, clinical performance in a variety of applications,
ISO/ASTM specifications, and opportunities and challenges. •
Offers a comprehensive view of properties and processing of
bioceramics. • Highlights applications in dentistry, orthopaedic
and maxillofacial implants, and regenerative and tissue
engineering. • Covers ISO/ASTM specifications, such as
processing, clinical applications, recycling/reuse, and disposal
standards. • Explores health, environmental, and ethical issues.
This book is aimed at researchers, practitioners, and advanced
students in materials science and biomedical engineering and can
assist in the design of novel, targeted, and personalized
bioceramics-based treatments.
This book gathers the proceedings of the 4th International
Conference on Mechanical Engineering and Applied Composite
Materials (MEACM), held in Beijing, China on October 24-25, 2020.
The conference brought together researchers from several countries
and covered all major areas of mechanical engineering and applied
composite materials, new applications and current trends. The
topics covered include: structure and design, mechanical
manufacturing and automation, robotics and mechatronics, mechanical
behavior of nanomaterials, nanocomposites, and composite mechanics.
Given its scope, the book offers a source of information and
inspiration for researchers seeking to improve their work and
gather new ideas for future developments.

This book provides a simple and unified approach to the mechanics
of discontinuous-fibre reinforced composites, and introduces
readers as generally as possible to the key concepts regarding the
mechanics of elastic stress transfer, intermediate modes of stress
transfer, plastic stress transfer, fibre pull-out, fibre
fragmentation and matrix rupture. These concepts are subsequently
applied to progressive stages of the loading process, through to
the composite fractures. The book offers a valuable guide for
advanced undergraduate and graduate students attending lecture
courses on fibre composites. It is also intended for beginning
researchers who wish to develop deeper insights into how
discontinuous fibre provides reinforcement to composites, and for
engineers, particularly those who wish to apply the concepts
presented here to design and develop discontinuous-fibre reinforced
composites.

Sustainable Biopolymer Composites: Biocompatibility, Self-healing,
Modeling, Repair and Recyclability focuses on sustainable polymer
composites also referred to as bio- composites. Vital aspects such
as biodegradability, biocompatibility, repair and recyclability are
discussed in detail. In addition, complexities like rapid and
scalable processing, onsite repair, and minimal environmental
effects are also covered along with the appropriateness of advanced
polymer composites for structural applications in automotive,
aviation and marine industries. This book will be an indispensable
resource for scientists, engineers, physicists and chemists who are
interested in the preparation, applications and repair analysis of
bio-based composites and nano-composites for different types of
applications. The composites repair process is extremely complex,
hence it is essential to have a comprehensive understanding of
damage mechanisms to apply the most suitable repair technique.
Damage assessment using onsite inspection, e.g., NDT, THz
techniques and the automated repair process for reliability and
repeatability, are vital parameters when executing bonded composite
repair. Furthermore, overall integrity and structural health
monitoring of composites repair is also necessary.
Bioresorbable Polymers and their Composites: Characterization and
Fundamental Processing for Pharmaceutical and Medical Device
Development provides a holistic view of these unique materials and
their usage in a range of biomedical applications. The book is
evenly divided between fundamentals, processing methods and
modeling approaches, and includes detailed coverage of a variety of
applications, such as drug delivery, medical devices and wound
healing. Key aspects including biocompatibility, biodegradability
and toxicology are also thoroughly covered, enabling the reader to
be fully informed when fabricating and utilizing their selected
bioresorbable polymer. This book is an interdisciplinary and
important reference for researchers in the fields of materials
science, biomedical engineering, pharmaceutical science and
regenerative medicine, as well as R&D groups in the development
of medical devices.
Interfaces in Particle and Fibre-Reinforced Composites: From Macro-
to Nanoscale addresses recent research findings on the
particle-matrix interface at different length scales. The book's
main focus is on the reinforcement of materials by particles that
can result in a composite material of high stiffness and strength,
but it also focuses on how the particle interacts with the (matrix)
material, which may be a polymer, biological-based material,
ceramic or conventional metal. The different types of particle
reinforced composites are discussed, as is load transfer at the
particle-matrix interface. Readers will learn how to select
materials and about particle structure. Significant progress has
been made in applying these approaches, thus making this book a
timely piece on recent research findings on the particle-matrix
interface at different length scales.
