Nanostructured materials, structures and mechanical properties, processing and applicationsMajerič, Peter (Avtor) nanostructuresstrength of nanostructuresnanostructured material production techniquesnanostructured material use casesNanomaterials are becoming an integral part of high-performance products and services. As technology advances, the possibilities for engineering components with nanomaterials are more numerous, taking advantage of the benefits that these materials have the potential to provide. Nanostructured materials have bulk dimensions with a structure that includesnanoscale features, and have been around for quite some time, hidden in everyday items. More recently, they have been made possible to be analysed and manipulated with increasingly sophisticated instruments and processes. This ability has made them more accessible, however, challenges still remain in the more widespread adoption of these materials for exploiting their advantages. The present paper outlines the position and emergence of nanostructured materials in the broader context of nanomaterials, examining their mechanical properties, production methods and applications.Association of Metallurgical Engineers of Serbia; Faculty of Technological Metallurgy, University of Belgrade; Institure for Technology of Nuclear and Other Mineral Resources (ITNMS)20242026-01-13 11:21:21Članek v reviji96471sl© 2023 by the authors
