Abstract:
This report is a summary of the activities of the Materials Research Council during its annual Summer Conference held in La Jolla, California, during the period July 6-30, 1976. A more complete presentation of the technical papers, workshop reports and memoranda generated by the Council will be prepared and issued later in the contract year. The Materials Research Council was organized by the Materials Science Office of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency to assist them in examining potential future materials problem areas of the Department of Defense. It is not directly concerned with current problems, although it has and will continue to work on these when it can be of assistance. Its primary function is to look beyond the current problems to those of the future and to suggest possible studies that will insure that the necessary science base and preliminary engineering feasibility studies are in place to support later engineering and system development.
