Advanced structural and functional materials design; proceedings.9780878499960 Advanced structural and functional materials design; proceedings. International Symposium on Advanced Structural and Functional Materials Design (2004: Osaka, Japan) Ed. by Y. Umakoshi and S. Fujimoto. Trans Tech Publications 2006 410 pages $228.00 Paperback Materials science forum; v.512 TA401 Sixty-nine papers from the November 2004 symposium explore new fabrication methods for electronic devices and the design of high performance structural materials such as space plane and turbine blades operating in a severe environment. Several of the contributions discuss evaluation techniques for materials reliability, system integration, and biomaterials for regeneration of biological hard tissues. Topics include ferromagnetic Refers to a material, such as iron and nickel, that can be easily magnetized.
