About the Author

Yuri Estrin:

Professor Yuri Estrin is an Honorary Professorial Fellow at Monash University in Melbourne, Australia. His research interests include the mechanical properties of metals and alloys, particularly ultrafine grained ones. A further area central to his research is geometry-inspired design of novel materials. Prof. Estrin has authored over 500 peer-reviewed papers and received international recognition in the form of numerous awards, including an Alexander von Humboldt Award, an honorary doctorate from the Russian Academy of Sciences, an International Helmholtz Fellow Award, and a Thomson Reuters Citation Award. He is a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Sciences.

Yves Brechet:

Professor Yves Brechet received his PhD degree at the Institut Polytechnique National (INP) in Grenoble, France. His main research interests are in physical and mechanical metallurgy, as well as materials science of biological systems. He is currently a Professor of Materials Science at the INP, an Adjunct Professor at McMaster University, Canada and a Senior Research Professor at the Institut Universitaire de France. He is also the High Commissioner for Atomic Energy (France) and a member of the French Académie des Sciences (Physics), the European Academy of Sciences (EAS-Materials Science), and Academia Europea.

Dr John Dunlop:
