This book collects the publications of the special Topic Scientific advances in STEM: from Professor to students. The aim is to contribute to the advancement of the Science and Engineering fields and their impact on the industrial sector, which requires a multidisciplinary approach. University generates and transmits knowledge to serve society. Social demands continuously evolve, mainly because of cultural, scientific, and technological development. Researchers must contextualize the subjects they investigate to their application to the local industry and community organizations, frequently using a multidisciplinary point of view, to enhance the progress in a wide variety of fields (aeronautics, automotive, biomedical, electrical and renewable energy, communications, environmental, electronic components, etc.). Most investigations in the fields of science and engineering require the work of multidisciplinary teams, representing a stockpile of research projects in different stages (final year projects, master’s or doctoral studies). In this context, this Topic offers a framework for integrating interdisciplinary research, drawing together experimental and theoretical contributions in a wide variety of fields.

Technology: general issues --- solar energy applications --- additive manufacturing --- coatings --- functional materials --- tribological and mechanical behavior --- bio residues --- biopolymer --- computer architecture --- artificial intelligence --- smart cities --- energy forecasting --- food --- sustainable cities and industries --- life cycle assessment --- emerging pollutants --- porous materials --- cellular and bacterial behavior --- powder technology --- solar energy applications --- additive manufacturing --- coatings --- functional materials --- tribological and mechanical behavior --- bio residues --- biopolymer --- computer architecture --- artificial intelligence --- smart cities --- energy forecasting --- food --- sustainable cities and industries --- life cycle assessment --- emerging pollutants --- porous materials --- cellular and bacterial behavior --- powder technology

Powder metallurgy is a group of advanced processes used for the synthesis, processing, and shaping of various kinds of materials. Initially inspired by ceramics processing, the methodology comprising the production of a powder and its transformation to a compact solid product has attracted attention since the end of World War II. At present, many technologies are availabe for powder production (e.g., gas atomization of the melt, chemical reduction, milling, and mechanical alloying) and its consolidation (e.g., pressing and sintering, hot isostatic pressing, and spark plasma sintering). The most promising methods can achieve an ultra-fine or nano-grained powder structure, and preserve it during consolidation. Among these methods, mechanical alloying and spark plasma sintering play a key role. This book places special focus on advances in mechanical alloying, spark plasma sintering, and self-propagating high-temperature synthesis methods, as well as on the role of these processes in the development of new materials.
