Aims and Scope
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 structure and the properties of materials. The structure encompasses
atomic and molecular arrangements, chemical and electronic structures, and microstructure. Papers addressing mechanical, chemical, electronic,
magnetic and optical properties will be considered.
Emphasis is on the following aspects of the science and engineering of structural
and functional materials at all length scales:
(i) Experimentation, simulation and modeling which advance the understanding of the
properties;
(ii) Elucidation of the mechanisms involved in the synthesis and processing of materials which advance the understanding
of the properties; and
(iii) Improvement in the characterization of the structure and chemistry of materials which advance the understanding
of the properties.
