Mechanical properties of materials, especially corrosion, wear, fatigue, and fracture of materials used in structural applications. Failure modes and mechanisms are related to those properties, as well as manufacturing techniques used to make the desired size and shape. Another inter est is manufacturing technologies to help joint venture activities in developing countries.
