Abstract:
Micromechanics and materials are essential elements in
all of the transcendent technologies that are the
primary drivers of the twenty first century and in the
new economy. The transcendent technologies include
nanotechnology, microelectronics, information technology
and biotechnology. Research tools, opportunities and
challenges in mechanics and materials, including
micro/nanomechanics, multiscale mechanics, microscopy,
radiation scattering and other nanoscale metrologies, as
well as improved engineering and design of materials are
presented and discussed.
