Published:1997
Abstract
Materials are selected and used as a result of a match between their properties and the needs dictated by the intended application. This article provides information on how composition and structure determine the properties of materials. It presents common structural elements that are most important in materials. The article provides the historical perspective of materials and illustrates the evolution of engineering materials.
