Mechanics and Structures of Materials: The Mechanics and Structures of Materials (MSM) program element supports research on computational, theoretical, analytical and experimental solid mechanics, model based simulation and constitutive models; and the link of microstructure to nano-, meso- and macro-scale structural behavior. The program also supports experimental and analytical research on deformation, fatigue, and fracture and underlying nano- and micro-structural states and their origin, transformation and evolution.
