These three topics are closely related and constitute rapidly developing areas of study. The field of self-healing materials requires a new conceptual understanding of this biomimetic technology, which is in contrast to traditional  engineering processes such as wear and fatigue.  \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eBiomimetics in Materials Science\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e is the first monograph to be devoted to these materials. A new theoretical framework for these processes is presented based on the concept of multi-scale structure of entropy and non-equilibrium thermodynamics, together with a detailed review of the available technology. The latter includes experimental, modeling, and simulation results obtained on self-healing\/lubricating\/cleaning materials since their emergence in the past decade.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2014-03-03\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781493900503\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4614-0926-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 418\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50089743089804,"sku":"9781493900503","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781493900503.jpg?v=1779502738","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781493900503","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
