Description and Table of Contents

Description

Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS). The search for ever more novel materials, to meet the ever-increasing demands of modern civilization for building, operating and maintaining its infrastructures, will continue as long as mankind seeks to conserve the Earth's resources, and yet keep up with the new technological challenges created by the latest inventions and discoveries.
