Mechanics of Thin Films and Multi-layer Materials

This symposium will encompass recent developments in analytical, experimental and numerical analysis of mechanics of thin film and multi-layer materials. Although significant effort has been devoted to nano- and micro-scale electrical, optical and mechanical systems, the material- and size-dependent mechanical properties such as strength, adhesion, friction, deformation and failure mechanisms of this class of materials are still of great interest to the community. The objective of this symposium is to provide a forum for researchers from academia, industry and national labs to present, discuss and exchange the latest development in the field. Both fundamental research and practical applications of thin film and multi-layer materials are welcome. Topics invited for this symposium include but are not limited to the following:

Interface and surface properties
Adhesion, friction, deformation and failure mechanisms at small scales
Mechanical properties and stability of thin films and multilayered structures
Strengthening mechanisms of nanostructured thin films and multilayered structures
Thin film patterning, in-situ experimental testing and numerical modeling at small scales
