Keywords: Advanced Materials, Composites, Mechanical Properties, Physical Properties, Thin Films and Interfaces

Scope: Interfaces constitute a key microstructural variable for tuning materials behavior across 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 dominate material response in nanostructured systems and produce unique combinations of properties, from enhanced elastic-plastic material properties, tunable fracture properties, to electro/thermal functional properties. 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.
