·       Extraction and processing of various types of minerals, process-structure-property relationship of metal alloys, glasses, ceramics, polymers, composites, semiconductors, and carbon using functional and structural materials.

·       Novel methods and techniques for characterizing materials across a spectrum of systems and processes.

·       Characterization of mechanical, thermal, electrical, optical, dielectric, magnetic, physical, and other properties of materials.

·       Characterization of structural, morphological,and topographical natures of materials at micro- and nano- scales.

·       Characterization of extraction and processing including process development and analysis.

·       Advances in instrument developments for microstructure analysis and performance evaluation of materials, such as computer tomography (CT), X-ray and neutron diffraction, electron microscopy (SEM, FIB, TEM), and spectroscopy (EDS, WDS, EBSD) techniques.

·       2D and 3D modelling for materials characterization.
