This volume consists of the state-of-the-art reports on new
developments in micromechanics and the modeling of nanoscale
effects, and is a companion book to the recent Kluwer volume on
nanomechanics and mul- scale modeling (it is entitled Trends in
Nanoscale Mechanics). The two volumes grew out of a series of
discussions held at NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC), lectures
and other events shared by many researchers from the national
research laboratories and academia. The key events include the 2001
Summer Series of Round-Table Discussions on Nanotechnology at ICASE
Institute (NASA LaRC) organized by Drs. V. M. Harik and M. D. Salas
and the 2002 NASA LaRC Workshop on Multi-scale Modeling. The goal
of these interactions was to foster collaborations between academic
researchers and the ICASE Institute (NASA LaRC), a universi- based
institute, which has pioneered world-class computational,
theoretical and experimental research in the disciplines that are
important to NASA. Editors gratefully acknowledge help of Ms. E.
Todd (ICASE, NASA LaRC), the ICASE Director M. D. Salas and all
reviewers, in particular, Dr. B. Diskin (ICASE/NIA, NASA LaRC),
Prof. R. Haftka (University of Florida), Dr. V. M. Harik

An outstanding feature of this book is a collection of
state-of-the-art reviews written by leading researchers in the
nanomechanics of carbon nanotubes, nanocrystalline materials,
biomechanics and polymer nanocomposites. The structure and
properties of carbon nanotubes, polycrystalline metals, and
coatings are discussed in great details. The book is an exceptional
resource on multi-scale modelling of metals, nanocomposites, MEMS
materials and biomedical applications. An extensive bibliography
concerning all these topics is included. Highlights on
bio-materials, MEMS, and the latest multi-scale methods (e.g.,
molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo) are presented. Numerous
illustrations of inter-atomic potentials, nanotube deformation and
fracture, grain rotation and growth in solids, ceramic coating
structures, blood flows and cell adhesion are discussed.
This book provides a comprehensive review of latest developments in
the analysis of mechanical phenomena in nanotechnology and
bio-nanotechnology.
This book includes a collection of state-of-the-art reviews written
by leading researchers in the areas of micromechanics, micro-scale
testing, MEMS, micro-flows, nanocrystalline materials and
multi-scale modelling. The structure and properties of MEMS
materials, multi-scale modelling of materials (e.g., multi-grid,
probabilistic, stochastic, Voronoi cells, homogenisation,
micropolar) and micro-flows are discussed in great details. The
book is an exceptional resource on multi-scale methods, modelling
of materials, MEMS and micro-fluidics with particular emphasis on
electrostatic and electrokinetic effects. Extensive bibliography
concerning all these topics is included. Highlights on nanoscale
effects in materials, MEMS, and the latest multi-scale methods are
presented.
Numerous illustrations of micro-scale testing, materials
microstructure, MEMS-related applications, electrostatic and
electrokinetic phenomena are discussed.
This book provides a comprehensive review of the latest
developments in micromechanics of nanostructured materials and
micro-flows, as well as advanced multi-scale methods for the
analysis of materials and complex flow in nanotechnology.
Material of the book is accessible to a wide range of researchers
and students.
