Acta Materialia provides a forum for publishing full-length, original papers and commissioned overviews which advance the in-depth
understanding of the relationship between the processing, the structure and the properties of inorganic materials. Papers which have
a high impact potential are sought. The structure encompasses atomic and molecular arrangements, chemical and electronic structures,
and microstructure. Emphasis is on either the mechanical or functional behavior of inorganic solids at all length scales down to nanostructures.
The following aspects of the science and engineering of inorganic materials are of particular interest:
(i) Cutting-edge experiments
and theory as they relate to the understanding of the properties,
(ii) Simulation and modeling preferably combined with experimentation
specifically as they relate to the understanding of the properties,
(iii) Elucidation of the mechanisms involved in the synthesis
and processing of materials specifically as they relate to the understanding of the properties,
and
(iv) Characterization of the
structure and chemistry of materials specifically as it relates to the understanding of the properties.
Short communications and
comments to papers published in Acta Materialia may be submitted to Scripta Materialia.
