As a result of the structural stability, the prachcal capacity obtained from layered Li Co02 is only 140 mAh/g, which limits its application in future high-energy, high-power demands. In addition, LiCoOz suffers from toxic, high cost and safety issue. Therefore, alternative layered structural materials were developed. 

Lithium-rich layered structural materials are of more interests mainly due to their high reversible capacity of more than 250 mAh/g at ambient temperature and even higher such as 300 mAh/g at 55°C [48] at low current density. The design strategy is based on an assumption of integrated composites.

The AET was used at standard tests of numerous structural materials, above all steels and cast iron, prepared are ceramic samples. Part of tested samples had qjecial sur ce layer treatments by laser, plasma nitridation and similar. Effect of special surface treatment the authors published already earlier [5,6]. In this contribution are summed up typical courses of basic dependencies, measured by the AET at contact loading. 

The new instrument introduced for inspection of multi-layer structures from polymeric and composite metals and materials in air-space industry and this is acoustic flaw detector AD-64M. The principle of its operation based on impedance and free vibration methods with further spectral processing of the obtained signal. 

For construction of suitable samples molecular beam epitaxy was selected, the method of choice for the production of complicated epitaxial layer systems with different materials. As substrates Si wafer material (about 20x20 mm-, thickness 1 mm) and SiO, discs (diameter 30 mm, thickness 3 mm) were used. Eight layered structures (one, two and three layers) were built up with Al, Co, and Ni, with an indicated thickness of 70 nm, each. 

For composite stiffeners, all shapes are builtup from individual layers of material. Of course, some stiffener shapes can be produced by roll forming or pultrusion, for example, and then fastened to panels. Or, the stiffened panel could be made in a single operation involving the placement, usually by hand, of individual laminae of various dimensions in positions such that a builtup structure results. Stiffeners can be fastened to panels by bonding, stitching, or mechanical fastening.

Analysis of the atomic lattice images of the lead compound entering CNTs by capillary forces (a)detailed view of the high resolution image of the filling material, (b)tetragonal PbO atomic arrangement, note the layered structure and (c)tetragonal PbO observed in the [111] direction, note that the distribution of lead atoms follows the contrast pattern observable in (a), (d)bidimensional projection of the deduced PbO filling orientation inside CNTs as viewed in the tube axis direction, note that PbO layers are parallel to the cylindrical CNT cavity.

Tin(II) chlorides are similarly complex (Fig. 10.5). In the gas phase, SnCh forms bent molecules, but the crystalline material (mp 246°, bp 623°) has a layer structure with chains of comer-shared trigonal pyramidal SnClsl groups. The dihydrate also has a 3-coordinated structure with only I of the H2O molecules directly bonded to the Sn (Fig. I0.5c) the neutral aquo complexes are arranged in double layers with the second H2O molecules interleaved between them to form a two-dimensional H-bonded network...
