Description: This issue covers, in the form of abstracts, the work which has been reported between the previous retrospective and the end of 2002. The choice of abstracted papers is guided by criteria such as accessibility, data content and description of important new techniques, phenomena or anomalies. There is also a thorough coverage of qualitative features of diffusion and defect phenomena, computer modelling and theory. The volume also includes invited review and experimental papers which treat a wide range of topics in the field.

Online since: February 2002

Description: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
The last few years have witnessed a rapidly growing interest in the explanation and interpretation of the mesoscale microstructures which occur in distorted crystalline objects such as, for instance, conventional plastically deformed metals and alloys, as well as high-performance materials including ultra-fine grained polycrystals, nanocrystals and thin films.

Dislocations '93

Edited by: J. Rabier, A. George, Y. Bréchet and L. Kubin

Online since: September 1993

Description: This publication bears witness of a renewal of the studies on dislocations. The texts of the lectures as well as those of the contributions illustrate, indeed, the wide spectrum of the present concerns. The openings towards physics, mechanics, even electrochemistry or geology, the new experimental approaches will certainly benefit to the investigation of new materials and complex situations.
