Acta Materialia

Aims & Scope

Acta Materialia provides a forum for publishing full-length, original papers and commissioned overviews that advance the in-depth understanding of the relationship between the processing, the structure and the properties of inorganic materials.

Papers that have a high impact potential and/or substantially advance the field 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.
