This book exclusively aims to deliver a basic understanding of nanotechnology from a mechanical engineering perspective. It begins with the history and fundamentals of nanotechnology and comprehension of the relationship between the properties and the structure. A brief overview of the several techniques available for the synthesis of various nanostructures and the techniques for size control is provided in the subsequent section. Further, it demonstrates applications of nanostructured materials in the field that are closely related to mechanical engineering.

- Presents exclusive discussion and elaboration on the nanomaterials in varied aspects of mechanical engineering.

- Covers machining techniques for nanostructure manufacturing, such as chemical grinding and additive manufacturing.

- Discusses advanced synthesis techniques of nanostructures and nanomaterials.

- Illustrates computational techniques relevant to mechanical properties of nanomaterials.

- Includes smart materials in the military, automobile, and aerospace applications.

This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in mechanical engineering and nanotechnology.
