Material science in science fiction is the study of how materials science is portrayed in works of science fiction. The accuracy of the materials science portrayed spans a wide range - sometimes it is an extrapolation of existing technology, sometimes it is a physically realistic portrayal of a far-out technology, and sometimes it is simply a plot device that looks scientific, but has no basis in science.
Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine is a peer-reviewed scientific journal published by Springer. It is an established, refereed companion to the Journal of Materials Science focusing specifically on materials in medicine and dentistry.

Materials informatics is a field of study that applies the principles of informatics to materials science and engineering to better understand the use, selection, development, and discovery of materials. This is an emerging field, with a goal to achieve high-speed and robust acquisition, management, analysis, and dissemination of diverse materials data.
Most atoms on earth came from the interstellar dust and gas from which the sun and solar system formed. However, in the space science community "extraterrestrial materials" generally refers to objects now on earth that were solidified prior to arriving on earth.
Advanced Materials is a peer-reviewed materials science journal published every week. It includes Communications, Reviews, and Feature Articles from the cutting edge of materials science, including topics in chemistry, physics, nanotechnology, ceramics, metallurgy, and biomaterials, and is one of the most heavily cited journals in this multidisciplinary field.
In materials science, the strength of a material is its ability to withstand an applied stress without failure. Yield strength refers to the point on the engineering stress-strain curve (as opposed to true stress-strain curve) beyond which the material begins deformation that cannot be reversed upon removal of the loading.
Earth materials is a general term that includes rocks and materials that are not by definition rocks but are commonly regarded as rocks. Examples of the latter are coal and volcanic glass, which are not composed of minerals.

Materials science or materials engineering is an interdisciplinary field involving the properties of matter and its applications to various areas of science and engineering. This science investigates the relationship between the structure of materials at atomic or molecular scales and their macroscopic properties.
Materials management is the branch of logistics that deals with the tangible components of a supply chain. Specifically, this covers the acquisition of spare parts and replacements, quality control of purchasing and ordering such parts, and the standards involved in ordering, shipping, and warehousing the said parts.

Abstract: Thermal changes occurring during the setting of restorative materials have been measured accurately using a differential scanning calorimeter. The results were used to evaluate setting characteristics. The heat of reaction and rate of heat output may be significant in determining thermal damage to the pulp. The heat capacity is related to thermal insulation properties. These properties have been determined and their effect on the efficacy of restorative materials discussed.
Abstract: Abstract In this letter we demonstrate that with a different principle, BaTiO3 ceramics, so far considered as inferior piezoelectrics compared with Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 (PZT), can show a large recoverable electrostrain. This principle utilizes a point-defect-mediated reversible domain switching mechanism, which can in theory generate 0.368% strain for BaTiO3 ceramics at the best condition. Experimental results showed that, after aging at room temperature, 1.0 mol % Mn-doped (Ba0.95Sr0.05)TiO3 ceramics generate a large recoverable nonlinear strain of about 0.12%–0.15% at a field of 3 kV/mm. This value ...

Abstract: Combinatorial materials synthesis methods and high-throughput evaluation techniques have been developed to accelerate the process of materials discovery and optimization and phase-diagram mapping. Analogous to integrated circuit chips, integrated materials chips containing thousands of discrete different compositions or continuous phase diagrams, often in the form of high-quality epitaxial thin films, can be fabricated and screened for interesting properties. Microspot x-ray method, various optical measurement techniques, and a novel evanescent microwave microscope have been used to characteri...

Abstract: Abstract Encapsulant materials for flip chip on board assemblies (FCOB) were developed to address the issues observed during assembly of consumer electronic products on a high volume manufacturing FCOB/SMT line. The development of encapsulant materials with enhanced flow properties and faster curing kinetics is critical to continue the move towards the integration of FCOB assemblies as an alternative packaging system in electronic products. The results from this study showed that materials with enhanced flow properties were developed and some approached a 10× reduction in the time to underfil...
Abstract: Abstract We present an atomistic calculation using the embedded atom method in order to investigate nanoindentation in superlattices based on carbide materials. The purpose is to conduct a nanoindentation simulation study in order to evaluate the hardness of TiC and the one of TiC/NbC. Results clearly show that this calculated quantity increases considerably from the carbide alone to the carbide in sandwich with another one like NbC. This mainly highlights the possibility to increase the hardness of carbide materials and confirms theoretically the previous experimental deductions.

Abstract: Abstract The influence of the operating temperature and film thickness on the pyroelectric properties of (001) Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3 (BST 60/40) epitaxial films on (001) LaAlO3, MgO, and Si substrates is investigated theoretically via a thermodynamic model. The results are presented using contour maps that can be used to identify “design windows” for film thickness and operating temperature for optimum pyroelectric response. For BST 60/40 on LAO and MgO large pyroelectric coefficients (~0.7 µC?cm-2?K-1) are observed at near room temperature for moderate film thickness (50–200 nm). The pyroresponse o...
