The book covers both the bottom-up and the top-down approaches of synthesis and processing of nanostructured materials, with a focus on the methods severe plastic deformation, including high pressure torsion (HPT), equal channel angular processing (ECAP), cyclic extrusion compression (CEC), accumulative roll bonding (ARB) and surface mechanical attrition treatment (SMAT). In addition, the structure-property relationships and the ways of influencing the nanostructure in the material in order to exhibit a desired functionality are reviewed in detail. An outlook on the future directions of mechanical nanostructuring is followed by an overview of applications of nanostructured materials in various fields of structural and mechanical engineering.
