Nanomechanics: From Theory to Application

Guest Editors: Message from the Guest Editors

Dr. Marina Inés Giannotti Dear Colleagues, Biomedical Research Networking Center on Bioengineering, Nanomechanics is an area of nanoscience that studies Biomaterials and Nanomedicine fundamental mechanical properties of physical systems at (CIBER-BBN), Madrid, Spain Institut de Bioenginyeria de the nanoscale. Nanomechanics has developed at the Catalunya (IBEC), The Barcelona intersection of , , Institute of Science and and , and the overlapping of -state Technology, Barcelona, Spain physics, , and . Department of Materials and Physical Chemistry, Faculty of In nature, all key steps involve mechanical movement at Chemistry, Universitat de the molecular level, and, moreover, the macroscopic Barcelona (UB), Barcelona, Spain properties of polymeric materials are closely related to the [email protected] molecular composition, structure, conformation, and interactions at this level. Dr. Lorena Redondo-Morata Center for Infection and This Special Issue of , entitled Immunity of Lille, INSERM U1019, “Nanomechanics: From Theory to Application”, will cover CNRS UMR 8204, F-59000 Lille, France the aforementioned advances, comprising both theoretical and experimental findings in different areas from lorena.redondo-morata@ inserm.fr and materials to biological entities.

Prof. Dr. Shirley Chiang Nanoscience and are exciting fields of Department of Physics, University research and development, with wide applications to of California Davis, One Shields electronic, optical, and magnetic devices, biology, Avenue, Davis, CA 95616-5270, USA medicine, , and defense. At the heart of these fields are the synthesis, characterization, modeling, and applications of new materials with lower nanometer-scale dimensions, which we call “nanomaterials”. These materials can exhibit unusual mesoscopic properties and include , coatings and thin films, metal– organic frameworks, membranes, nano-alloys, quantum dots, self-assemblies, 2D materials such as graphene, and nanotubes. Our journal, Nanomaterials, has the goal of publishing the highest quality papers on all aspects of nanomaterial science to an interdisciplinary scientific audience. All of our articles are published with rigorous refereeing and open access.
