MATERIALS SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

Materials Science and Technology is an international forum for the publication of refereed contributions covering fundamental and technological aspects of materials science and engineering.The journal has a particular interest in the continuum from understanding of process routes leading to the generation of microstructure, through characterisation and understanding of how microstructure is controlled and manipulated, to the control and prediction of relevant engineering properties. 'Microstructure' is shorthand for nano/micro/meso/macrostructure, provided that 'structure' is identified at the appropriate size scale. 'Properties' may be electrical, mechanical, electronic, chemical, magnetic, thermal, optical, or biochemically related. Reports of the use of modelling, informatics and related approaches to enhance understanding and predict properties must include validation against experimental results.Contributions addressing any part of the continuum in an insightful manner, whatever the material system, are invited. What is important is that an attempt is made to relate 'properties' back to effects of 'microstructure'.Subscribers receive online access to the full back archive of MST included in their subscription. This archive provides complete coverage of MST back to Volume 1 (1985) and of its predecessors, Metal Science (1967-84) and Metals Technology (1974-84).

材料科学和技术是一个国际论坛，用于发表涉及材料科学和工程的基础和技术方面的参考贡献。期刊特别关注从了解导致微观结构生成的工艺路线，通过描述和理解微观结构如何控制和操作，到控制和预测相关工程特性的连续性。微观结构是纳米/微/中/宏观结构的缩写，前提是“结构”是在适当的尺寸尺度上识别出来的。属性可以是电气的、机械的、电子的、化学的、磁性的、热的、光学的或生物化学的。使用模型、信息学和相关方法来增强理解和预测特性的报告必须包括对实验结果的验证。请以富有洞察力的方式，无论物质体系如何，对连续体的任何部分作出贡献。重要的是试图将“属性”与“微观结构”的影响联系起来。订阅服务器可以在线访问订阅中包含的MST的完整备份存档。该档案提供了从第一卷（1985年）到其前身金属科学（1967-84年）和金属技术（1974-84年）的MST的完整覆盖。
