Metallic Glass-Based Nanocomposites: Molecular Dynamics Study of
Properties provides readers with an overview of the most commonly
used tools for MD simulation of metallic glass composites and
provides all the basic steps necessary for simulating any material
on Materials Studio. After reading this book, readers will be able
to model their own problems on this tool for predicting the
properties of metallic glass composites. This book provides an
introduction to metallic glasses with definitions and
classifications, provides detailed explanations of various types of
composites, reinforcements and matrices, and explores the basic
mechanisms of reinforcement-MG interaction during mechanical
loading. It explains various models for calculating the thermal
conductivity of metallic glass composites and provides examples of
molecular dynamics simulations. Aimed at students and researchers,
this book caters to the needs of those working in the field of
molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of metallic glass composites.
Composite materials find diverse applications in areas including
aerospace, automotive, architecture, energy, marine and military.
This comprehensive textbook discusses three important aspects
including manufacturing, mechanics and dynamic mechanical analysis
of composites. The textbook comprehensively presents fundamental
concepts of composites, manufacturing techniques and advanced
topics including as advances in composite materials in various
fields, viscoelastic behavior of composites, toughness of
composites and Nano mechanics of composites in a single volume.
Topics such as polymer matrix composites, metal matrix composites,
ceramic matrix composites, micromechanical behavior of a lamina,
micromechanics and nanomechanics are discussed in detail. Aimed at
senior undergraduate and graduate students for a course on
composite materials in the fields of mechanical engineering,
automobile engineering and electronics engineering, this book:
Discusses mechanics and manufacturing techniques of composite
materials in a single volume. Explains viscoelastic behavior of
composites in a comprehensive manner. Covers fatigue, creep and
effect of thermal stresses on composites. Discusses concepts
including bending, buckling and vibration of laminated plates in
detail. Explains dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) of composites.

Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Nanocomposites using BIOVIA
Materials Studio, Lammps and Gromacs presents the three major
software packages used for the molecular dynamics simulation of
nanocomposites. The book explains, in detail, how to use each of
these packages, also providing real-world examples that show when
each should be used. The latter two of these are open-source codes
which can be used for modeling at no cost. Several case studies how
each software package is used to predict various properties of
nanocomposites, including metal-matrix, polymer-matrix and
ceramic-matrix based nanocomposites. Properties explored include
mechanical, thermal, optical and electrical properties. This is the
first book that explores methodologies for using Materials Studio,
Lammps and Gromacs in the same place. It will be beneficial for
students, researchers and scientists working in the field of
molecular dynamics simulation.
Damping in Fiber Reinforced Composite Materials starts with an
introduction to the basic concepts of damping in composite
materials. Methods of modeling damping are then covered, along with
recent developments in measuring techniques, both local, like polar
scanning and global techniques like the Resonalyser method (based
on measuring modal damping ratios of composite material plates).
The effect of other factors, such as stress, strain-level,
stiffness and frequency that need to be considered when determining
damping behavior in composite materials are also discussed in
detail. Other chapters present a parametric study of a two-phase
composite material using different micromechanical models such as
Unified micromechanics, and Hashin and Eshelby's to predict elastic
moduli and loss factors. A bridging model that incorporates the
effect of fiber packaging factors is then compared to FEM results.
Final sections cover the effect of the interphase on the mechanical
properties of the composite, present a nonlinear model for the
prediction of damping in viscoelastic materials, and provide
practical examples of damping and principles of vibration control.
Fiber-reinforced Nanocomposites: Fundamentals and Applications
explores the fundamental concepts and emerging applications of
fiber-reinforced nanocomposites in the automobile, aerospace,
transportation, construction, sporting goods, optics, electronics,
acoustics and environmental sector. In addition, the book provides
a detailed overview of the properties of fiber-reinforced
nanocomposites, including discussion on embedding these
high-strength fibers in matrices. Due to the mismatch in structure,
density, strain and thermal expansion coefficients between matrix
and fibers, their thermo-mechanical properties strongly depend not
only on the preparative methods, but also on the interaction
between reinforcing phase and matrix phase. This book offers a
concise overview of these advances and how they are leading to the
creation of stronger, more durable classes of nanocomposite
materials.
