technologies. The topics in this volume consist of scanning
vibrating electrode technique, spectroscopic ellipsometry, advances
in X-ray diffraction, neutron reflectivity, micro- and nanoprobes,
fluorescence technique, stress measurement methods in thin films,

Size effect in structures has been taken into consideration over
the last years. In comparison with coatings with micrometer-ranged
thickness, nanostructured coatings usually enjoy better and
appropriate properties, such as strength and resistance. These
coatings enjoy unique magnetic properties and are used with the aim
of producing surfaces resistant against erosion, lubricant system,
cutting tools, manufacturing hardened sporadic alloys, being
resistant against oxidation and corrosion.
This book reviews researches on fabrication and classification
of nanostructured coatings with focus on size effect in nanometric
scale. Size effect on electrochemical, mechanical and physical
properties of nanocoatings are presented.

Handbook of Materials Failure Analysis: With Case Studies from the
Aerospace and Automotive Industries provides a thorough
understanding of the reasons materials fail in certain situations,
covering important scenarios, including material defects,
mechanical failure as a result of improper design, corrosion,
surface fracture, and other environmental causes. The book begins
with a general overview of materials failure analysis and its
importance, and then logically proceeds from a discussion of the
failure analysis process, types of failure analysis, and specific
tools and techniques, to chapters on analysis of materials failure
from various causes. Later chapters feature a selection of newer
examples of failure analysis cases in such strategic industrial
sectors as aerospace, oil & gas, and chemicals.
After the 2010 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Andre Geim and
Konstantin Novoselov "for groundbreaking experiments regarding the
two-dimensional material graphene," even more research and
development efforts have been focused on two-dimensional
nanostructures. Illustrating the importance of this area in future
applications, Two-Dimensional Nanostructures covers the fabrication
methods and properties of these materials. The authors begin with
discussions on the properties, size effect, applications,
classification groups, and growth of nanostructures. They then
describe various characterization and fabrication methods, such as
spectrometry, low-energy electron diffraction, physical and
chemical vapor deposition, and molecular beam epitaxy. The
remainder of the text focuses on mechanical, chemical, and physical
properties and fabrication methods, including a new mechanical
method for fabricating graphene layers and a model for relating the
features and structures of nanostructured thin films. With
companies already demonstrating the capabilities of graphene in a
flexible touch-screen and a 150 GHz transistor, nanostructures are
on their way to replacing silicon as the materials of choice in
electronics and other areas. This book aids you in understanding
the current chemical, mechanical, and physical processes for
producing these "miracle materials."
