Scope |
This symposium will bring together researchers and practitioners to explore the mechanisms of deformation and damage in metallic alloys with microstructural and compositional complexity. Advances in experimental, computational, and theoretical approaches will be highlighted across multiple length scales to address the challenges associated with understanding and predicting the behavior of these materials under various loading and environmental conditions. By addressing the interplay between microstructural complexity and mechanical performance, the symposium aims to foster cross-disciplinary collaboration and drive innovation in the design and application of advanced metallic materials. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Novel characterization techniques for probing deformation and damage at multiple length scales
- The influence of microstructural heterogeneity on mechanical behavior
- Computational modeling and simulations of deformation and failure in complex microstructures
- Applications of advanced metallic alloys in extreme environments
- Deformation mechanisms in high-entropy alloys, precipitate strengthened alloys, complex concentrated alloys, and multi-phase systems |
