Materials Science - Subcultures

Sort by random.

Polymer Science

in Materials Science

The multidisciplinary study of synthetic polymers such as plastics and elastomers.

Nano Materials

in Materials Science

The study of materials that have unique optical, electronic, or mechanical properties, of which a single unit has a size of between 1 to 1000 nanometres.

Crystallography

in Materials Science

The study of the diffraction of X-rays by crystals acting as optical gratings, which is the technology used to determine the internal structures and bonding arrangements of minerals and molecules.

Ceramic Engineering

in Materials Science

The study of creating objects from ceramics, which are inorganic and non-metallic materials resistant to heat.

Physical Metallurgy

in Materials Science

The study of the mechanical, magnetic, electrical, and thermal properties of metals.

Biomaterials

in Materials Science

The study of materials engineered to interact with biological systems for medical purposes.

Photonics

in Materials Science

The study of the generation, detection, and manipulation of light, through emission, transmission, modulation, signal processing, switching, amplification, and sensing.

Materials Science - Data Collection

As a Materials Scientist, please Login and provide research data on any of the following topics.

1. Government Agencies.

In preparing each faculty of knowledge to function constitutionally as an Arm of Government, we first need to specify or outline their boundaries. Please list as many offices, agencies, ministries, institutions, or parastatals presently in your region that you think fall under the authority, leadership, jurisdiction, legislation, or administration of the faculty of Materials Science.

 

2. Licensing Rights.

The creation or invention of new products and services are the efforts of multiple faculties working collaboratively. However, in our new economic system design, conflicts arise as to which faculties should possess the rights of ownership to certain creations. For example. Should CELLPHONES fall under the licensing rights of Physics or Electrical Engineering? Should PLASTICS fall under the licensing rights of Chemistry or Materials Science? Should PHARMACEUTICALS fall under the licensing rights of Biology or Health Science? Please list as many services, gadgets, products, creations, or inventions that materials scientists provide or offer presently in your region that you believe fall under the licensing rights of the faculty of Materials Science.

 

3. The Future.

Assuming that the faculty of Materials Science has just been granted ample funding and unhindered federal powers, please suggest a new idea, course of action, strategy, dream, innovation, or next-generation agency that materials scientists could implement, establish, or research and develop towards achieving a utopia in your region.
