Dear Colleagues,

The upcoming 2017 APS March Meeting will take place in New Orleans, LA during March 13-17, 2017. Here, we would like to invite you to contribute to a focus session called “Physics of Bioinspired Materials” as below. 

2.1.12: Physics of Bio-Inspired Materials (GSOFT, DBIO) [same as 4.1.30]

Any one studying the "piezoionic" effect? What's the mechanism of such an effect? What are the principal influencing factors?

A multiphase field model is developed to study the effects of metastable ζ and γ hydrides on the nucleation and growth of the stable δ hydrides in α zirconium matrix.  Acta Materialia 123 (2017) 235-244 

Almost three years also , I posted an entry titled Scalar Done Wrong.  The entry has received a large number of comments, and 16,793 reads.  I have since tried to get scalars right.  I have just attached today’s version of my notes as a PDF file to the original entry.
