An in-depth look into the many classes of defects (e.g., point, linear, and planar) and the role they play in crystalline materials. While we cannot eliminate defects and they are usually seen as a weakness, proper understanding of defects is the best way to design stronger and better materials. Examples of the types of defects we may cover are vacancies, dislocations, grain boundaries, interfaces, and twins. We will study their formation, mobility and interaction in environments where they are commonly found, such as elevated temperatures, mechanical strains, or irradiation.
