Preface

This volume of Advanced Structured Materials contains selected papers presented at the 1st International Conference on Materials Design and Applications 2016 (MDA 2016), held in Porto, Portugal, during June 30–July 1, 2016. The goal of the conference was to provide a unique opportunity to exchange information, present the latest results, as well as discuss issues relevant to materials design and applications. The focus is on fundamental research and application areas in the field of the design and application of engineering materials, predominantly within the context of mechanical engineering applications such as automobile, railway, marine, aerospace, biomedical, pressure vessel technology, and turbine technology. This includes a wide range of materials engineering and technology, including metals, e.g., lightweight metallic materials, polymers, composites, and ceramics. Advanced applications include manufacturing in the new materials, testing met
