'Thomas P. Matson' 'Bo Lei' 'Srujana Rao Yarasi'] The characterization and analysis of microstructure is the foundation of microstructural science, connecting the materials structure to its composition, process history, and properties. Microstructural quantification traditionally involves a human deciding a priori what…

Understanding and predicting microstructure evolution is fundamental to materials science, as it governs the resulting properties and performance of materials. Traditional simulation methods, such as phase-field models, offer high-fidelity results but are computationally expensive due to the need to solve complex…

The microstructural features of polycrystals determine numerous properties, whereas the evolution of crystallographic texture is responsible for the anisotropy of particular properties. Therefore, it is of crucial importance to find proper quantitative indicators, which reflect the nature of microstructure and texture…

'Zuoan Wei' 'Alexander Yu Churyumov'] It is known that the presence of microstructures in solids such as joints and interfaces has an essential influence on the studies of the development of advanced materials, rock mechanics, civil engineering, and so on. However, microstructures are often neglected in the classical…

Determining a process-structure-property relationship is the holy grail of materials science, where both computational prediction in the forward direction and materials design in the inverse direction are essential. Problems in materials design are often considered in the context of process-property linkage by…

'Giovanni Pappalettera' 'Sanichiro Yoshida'] Lattice structures have gained attention in engineering due to their lightweight properties. However, the complex geometry of lattice structures and the high melting temperature of metals present significant manufacturing challenges for the large-scale fabrication of these…

In bottom-up neuroscience, questions on neural information processing are addressed by engineering small but reproducible biological neural networks of defined network topology in vitro. The network topology can be controlled by culturing neurons within polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microstructures that are combined with…

The design and manufacturing of high value industrial components is suffering a change of paradigm with 3D printing. In this change of paradigm, metamaterials have an important role because when a component is 3D-printed, it is performed from the micro level, where custom structures may be designed to endow the…

'I. Snigireva' 'A. Snigirev' 'H. F. Poulsen'] Many physical and mechanical properties of crystalline materials depend strongly on their internal structure, which is typically organized into grains and domains on several length scales. Here we present dark-field X-ray microscopy; a non-destructive microscopy technique…

Microarchitectured materials achieve superior mechanical properties through geometry rather than composition ^1-4^. Although lightweight, high-porosity microarchitectured materials can have high stiffness and strength, stress concentrations within the microstructure can cause flaw intolerance under cyclic loading…

The mimicry of crystalline microstructure at meso-scale creates a new class of architected materials, termed meta-crystals, and offers effective ways to significantly improve the toughness and eliminate the post-yield collapse of architected materials. This study investigated the mechanical behaviour of polygrain-like…

Microdefects, including microcracks and resorption trenches, may be important contributors to bone fragility. 3D microdefect morphology was imaged using synchrotron micro-CT to develop a classification system for investigating the relationship with bone mechanics and hip-fractures. Femoral heads from ageing…

Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is widely used to investigate bacterial surface architecture; however, sample preparation protocols may introduce structural artefacts that compromise the interpretation of morphometric and ultrastructural features. This issue becomes especially relevant for extremophilic…

Microscopic features (i.e., microstructure) of axons affect neural circuit activity through characteristics such as conduction speed. Deeper understanding of structure-function relationships and translating this into human neuroscience has been limited by the paucity of studies relating axonal microstructure in white…

The complexity of condensed matter arises from emergent behaviors that cannot be understood by analyzing individual constituents in isolation. While traditional condensed-matter approaches—developed primarily for ideal crystalline solids—have provided deep insights into symmetry, order, and electronic structure, they…

'Konstantin G. Zloshchastiev'] Schr¨odinger-type wave equations with logarithmic nonlinearity occur in hydrodynamic models of Korteweg-type materials with capillarity and surface tension, which can undergo liquid-solid or liquid-gas phase transitions. One of the predictions of the theory is a periodic pattern of…

We present how mesoporosity can be engineered in transition metal phosphate (TMPs) materials in a template-free manner. The method involves a transformation of a precursor metal phosphate phase, M-struvite (NH4MPO4·6H2O, M = Mg2+, Ni2+, Co2+, Nix2+Co1-x2+), and it relies on the thermal decomposition of crystalline…
