Download or read book Mechanical Properties of Nanomaterials written by Joshua Pelleg and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-06-21 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book highlights the mechanical properties of nanomaterials produced by several techniques for various applications. The dislocations observed in specimens obtained in nanomaterials are discussed on the chapter about deformation process. Partial dislocations and grain boundary sliding deformation phenomena in nanomaterial specimens are also deeply discussed. Tests for tension, compression, and hardness are described. The behavior of nanomaterials is compared to macrosize specimens, and the results obtained for different fabrication methods are also compared. The special characteristics of nanomaterials are summarized at the end of the book.
