Smart Materials and Nanotechnology in Engineering: Selected, Peer Reviewed Papers from the 2011 Inte

Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS). This volume comprises a collection of the papers presented at the 2011 International Conference on Smart Materials and Nanotechnology in Engineering (SMNE2011), held on September 17~18th, 2011, in Wuhan, China. The aim was to provide a platform where researchers, engineers, academics and industrialists from all over the world could present research results and developments in Smart Materials and Nanotechnology in Engineering. This makes the work an eminently up-to-date guide to those fields.
