The symposium will be held during the MRS Fall 2022 Meeting in Boston from November 27 to December 2.
This symposium will focus on understanding mechanical behavior, structural stability, transport properties, electronic/magnetic ordering, and exotic properties of materials under extreme environments.
The major topics are the studies of materials under high pressure, high/low temperature, external electric/magnetic fields, high strain deformation, and high-strain-rate dynamic loading.
Topics will include:
– Super-hard and ultra-high-strength materials synthesized under high pressure and high field
– Energy materials, nanomaterials, composites under stress, pressure, and other extreme conditions
– Novel high-pressure materials with modified chemical bonding and composition
– High-temperature superconductors under high pressure and/or magnetic fields
– Theoretical modeling and prediction, advanced characterization, and instrumentation
– High-strength conductors, insulation, and structure materials for high-field magnets
– Material processing and first-order phase transformation in highfield magnets
– Material deformation under high-field magnets or cryogenic temperatures; High strain-rate mechanical characterization at the micro and nanoscale
– Material processes and phenomena related to extreme dynamic conditions; Microballistic studies for advanced functional and structural materials
A tutorial complementing this symposium is tentatively planned.
Abstract submission will be accepted from May 16 to June 16.
