Research Progress in Nano and Intelligent Materials

Research Progress in Nano and Intelligent Materials presents a broad selection of chapters on leading-edge research from top international researchers on various applications of nano and intelligent materials. The collection of topics in this book aims to reflect the diversity of recent advances in nano and intelligent materials with a broad perspective that will be useful for scientists as well as for graduate students and engineers.

Chapters present a range of research, from new methods to novel applications of existing methods to foster the understanding of the material and/or structural behavior of new and advanced systems.

Topics include:

• Updates on pan monofilament in nanoscale
• The development of flexible electrode using inkjet printing of silver nanoparticles
• Supreme EMI shielding using electroless plating of metallic nanoparticles on cotton fabric
• Inkjet deposited circuit components
• Reinforcing chitosan/poly(vinyl alcohol) nanofiber scaffolds using
• Single-walled carbon nanotube for neural tissue engineering
• Wireless wearable ECG monitoring system
• Conductive chitosan nanofiber
• Progress in production of nanofiber web

Dr. A. K. Hagh holds a BSc in urban and environmental engineering from the University of North Carolina (USA); an MSc in mechanical engineering from North Carolina A&T State University (USA); a DEA in applied mechanics, acoustics, and materials from the Université de Technologie de Compiègne (France); and a PhD in engineering sciences from the Université de Franche-Comté (France).

He has written about 1000 original articles, 250 monographs, and 170 chapters in 40 volumes. It is apparent from this work that he has made valuable contributions to the theory and practice of chemical engineering, heat and mass transfer, porous media, industrial drying, polymers, nanofibers, and nanocomposites.

Dr Haghi is Editor-In-Chief of the International Journal of Chemoinformatics and Chemical Engineering and Editor-In-Chief of the Polymers Research Journal. He is an editorial board member for many US and internationally published journals and is also a Senior Editor for Apple Academic Press (US and Canada).

He served as an associate member of the University of Ottawa and was a member of the Canadian Society of Mechanical Engineering.
