Nanotechnology is a progressive research and development topic with
large amounts of venture capital and government funding being
invested worldwide. Nano mechanics, in particular, is the study and
characterization of the mechanical behaviour of individual atoms,
systems and structures in response to various types of forces and
loading conditions.
This text, written by respected researchers in the field,
informs researchers and practitioners about the fundamental
concepts in nano mechanics and materials, focusing on their
modelling via multiple scale methods and techniques. The book
systematically covers the theory behind multi-particle and
nanoscale systems, introduces multiple scale methods, and finally
looks at contemporary applications in nano-structured and
bio-inspired materials.
