This symposium aims to capture recent advances in processing, characterization,
simulation/modeling, and applications related to surface engineering of
materials.
The symposium topics include but not limited to:
- Coatings (metallic, ceramic, organic, and composite coatings)
- Surface protection from wear and corrosion
- 2D Materials and thin films
- Surface characterization techniques
- Surface alloying and Microstructural modification techniques
- Functionally graded and nanostructured coatings
- High temperature coatings
- Coatings produced by Additively manufacturing and solid-state processing
techniques
Interfaces constitute a key microstructural variable for tuning materials
behavior across a wide range of length scales from nano to macro in single and
multiphase systems, including structural and functional materials. The advent
of novel multi-phase/multi-interface/composite structures holds great potential
for enabling unparalleled performance under coupled extremes. Interfaces often
dominate the material response in nanostructured systems and produce unique
combinations of properties, ranging from enhanced elastic-plastic material
properties through tunable fracture properties to electro/thermal functional
properties. A fundamental understanding of interfacial physics and coupled
phenomena impacting mechanical behavior is necessary to harness new concepts
and methodologies in interface design of novel, multifunctional layered and
composite structures.
This symposium aims to discuss interface physics that governs mechanical
behavior and coupled phenomena in interfacially-driven multifunctionality in
both single and multiphase materials and composites. Talks are solicited that
cover synthesis, characterization, and modeling of materials with deliberately
designed interfaces and material combinations with particular emphasis on new
insights into fundamental mechanisms, analysis of defects, and their
implications for multifunctional performance. Abstracts on recent developments
in mechanical testing techniques (e.g., in situ straining in TEM, micropillar
testing, etc.) and in high-fidelity modeling techniques (e.g., ab initio,
finite elements, etc.) are also solicited. Topics of interest include, but are
not necessarily limited to:
• Influence of interface structure and chemistry on deformation mechanisms in
single and multiphase nanomaterials/nanocomposites
• Mechanical behavior of low dimensional materials (e.g., thin films,
nanowires, nanotubes, and nanoparticles) described both experimentally and via
modelling
• Physics of phase boundaries in multiphase systems, such as
crystalline-amorphous composites, nanolaminates, nanoparticle/matrix
composites, and nano-porous materials
• Mechanical behavior of grain boundary engineered nanomaterials (e.g. solute
stabilization, grain boundary complexion formation, duplex and gradient
nanostructures)
• Micro, meso, and macroscale modeling of deformation processes and coupled
phenomena as they relate to interface physics (including multi-scale modelling)
• In situ testing methodologies for investigating mechanical behavior and
coupled extremes such as mechanical and irradiation of small volumes of
material
