What are the topics are needed for starting serious study nanotechnology.Are they more of quantum mechanics and modern physics and solid state physic or something else?.And what kinds of books( esp in physics) should we look for if one is doing his engineering in any other subject like mechanical electrical civil.

Find text, that sute these areas?

> Basic topics of nanostructures and how they work.

Why nanostructures exceed the strength of more common elements, say in comparing regular temper steel, to atomically aligned steel.

Methods of manufacture of nanotechnology structure.

Poly resins used in the manufacture of nanotechnology bonded substances.

Methods of machining of nanotechnology structure.

History of nanotechnology, perfect, near perfect structures as they both relate to atomic structure and the chemical makeup, of these structures.

Physical history in practum, of the use and handling characteristic, of nanotechnology structures.* How they handle as a casting.

** Ecological concerns in environmental managing of nanotechnology structures, via proper and improper disposal of these items, post use, from an industrial plant.

Heath concerns from machining methods, of microstructure materials being pushed into the air, as an inhailable factor concerning workers heath, at nanotechnology fabrication plants.

* Biological interaction scenarios, entailing how an air held effluent, inhaled into a persons lungs, nose and throat, as a morphological pathogenic essay, concerning workers related heath, in the handling and machining of nanotechnology structures.

> Machining> Methods of nanotechnology structures machining, as it relates to practical design and utilization of an overall design program, proper, or how to place the proper design application, for any nanotechnology materials, designed casting, as this casting, would relate to a desired application

X Electrical: Design and theory as it would relate to static charges and microvoltagres, held in a wide array of nanotechnology structures, as this may relate to various kinds of static buildup, within that material.

> Example would be, the early upper wing surface replacement for the AV-8B, were constructed of a carbon fiber composite.One of the problems that they with this wing box structure, is a static buildup of electricity, due to the passage of air over the top wing inset.
This invention dictated, that a method of grounding, had to be provided for the upper wing insert.

Weight measurement comparison ratios, as per unit item of strength, per engineered items, per application or replacement.
* Since some nanocastings, are lighter in weight, what is the design engineered ratio, for weight strength applications, in the replacement of some more conventional items?

Biological: Projected interrelations, per inserted application, of bio-medical applications, of prosthetics application, held in vivo, or any animals body and how the bodies own defense systems, would realize this items placed into that particular animal.

Para-biological studies, in nanotechnology materials, loose, as they would invest as an adopted colony, or as part of a bacterial, or other living biological culture. Example, Joe's Synthetics, dumps a fifty-five gallon of microtechnolgy material, into a stream bed, to where it lies and pools, into a colony of bacteria.

These bacteria adopts the micro-grained structures, as they are easy to bond to.In time, how will this now changed loose material, relate to nature, as a now modified nanomaterial-bacterial colony, as the bacterial have found, through the process of adaptation, that this loose, but very fine material, can be adapted to the bacteria?

Cyborg> Potential applications, or inserted wearable devices, as placed as an advantage device, into animals and or humans.

Robot> Applications of very light weight structures, for walking frames for bipedal and or other styles of roboture.

Synthetic human or animal> Applications of a completely synthetic humanoids, which might act as a companion, to any projected worker, investigator and the range of limits and interaction ranges, held in a projected synthetic human, as a companion worker.

Chemistry: An analogy of bonding joining agents, with reference to resins and manufactured castings, of how nanostructure castings, would be chosen to have what desired bonding, and or resin, applied in what fashion, per application, of that designed object.

Manufacture: Methods of manufacture of nanotechnolgy materials in industry.

* Law, and liability, in the failure process, of any nanotechnology manufactured items and how the application and or failure, or problem areas, with this materials, would affect, either the client and or general public.
**Industrial law.

great post
thank you

shivgan3, first I thought you were a spammer. NOw I'm certain you're a bot. "Great post"? from philip301? Was it a "great" example of humour? of stupidity? or a "great" example of you understanding nothing at all about the subject your links are supposedly about?
