Mechanical Behavior of Nanocomposites

By engineering the length scales, morphology, crystallography and chemistry of interfaces, nanocomposites can deliver mechanical properties that exceed what could be achieved from a single-phase material alone. The January, 2019 issue of MRS Bulletin will highlight recent developments in mechanics of nanocomposites that are composed of a combination of metallic, polymer, biological, and ceramic materials and outline the challenges and opportunities for future research directions. This webinar will expand on the Bulletin issue, and an interactive Q&A will be held with each of the speakers following their talks.

The webinar is co-sponsored by MSM/IMAG/IµBEAM, and by the Materials Research Society (MRS) MRS requires that you registere to participate! Please click the link below in advance of the webinar.
