Self Healing Materials An Alternative Approach to 20 Centuries of Materials Science

Self Healing Materials An Alternative Approach to 20 Centuries of Materials Science / edited by Sybrand van der Zwaag.

This book, the first in this new field of materials science, aims to present a coherent picture of the design principles and resulting properties of self healing materials over all material classes, and to offset them to the current design principles for structural materials with improved mechanical...
