Selected, peer reviewed papers from the 4th International Conference on Chemical Engineering and Advanced Materials (CEAM 2014), August 9-10, 2014, Shenzhen, China

These are the fully refereed proceedings of the International Conference on Materials Science and Information Technology (MSIT 2011), held during the 16-18 September 2011 in Singapore. The main goal of the event was to provide an international scientific forum for the exchange of new ideas in a number of fields by permitting in-depth interaction via discussions with peers from around the world. Core areas of materials science and information technology, plus multi-disciplinary and interdisciplinary aspects are covered. Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).

The peer-reviewed papers brought together, in this special issue of Solid State Phenomena, are the outcome of the 16th International Conference on Internal Friction and Mechanical Spectroscopy, ICIFMS-16, held on the 3rd to 8th July 2011, in Lausanne, Switzerland. These proceedings aim to attract newcomers to this exciting field of research and lead them to appreciate the potential of anelastic methodologies in the investigation of advanced materials and new phenomena. Scientist who are already involved in the field will also find within new ideas which will stimulate their interest in developing new experiments and theories.

The presented volume of the journal "Advanced Materials Research" is the regular special issue from the series "Advanced Materials and Technologies" and collected from peer-reviewed stand-alone papers describing the results of research and engineering solutions dealing with actual problems in the area of materials science and materials processing technologies. Published articles will be useful for professionals in various branches of engineering, for students and academic staff concerned with the related specialties.
