La Porta F., Taft C. (Eds.). Functional Properties of Advanced Engineering Materials and Biomolecules

Springer, 2021. — 780 p. — (Engineering Materials). — ISBN 978-3-030-62225-1.This book shows how a small toolbox of experimental techniques, physical chemistry concepts as well as quantum/classical mechanics and statistical methods can be used to understand, explain and even predict extraordinary applications of these advanced engineering materials and biomolecules. It highlights how improving the material foresight by design, including the fundamental understanding of their physical and chemical properties, can provide new technological levels in the future.
