Advanced Materials and Processing: Fiscal Year 1993 Program. Federal Program in Materials Science and Technology.

摘要

The report gives a comprehensive overview of government-wide materials Research and Development (R&D), and contains extensive discussion of each participating agency's contribution to the Federal Advanced Materials and Processing Program (AMPP). The goal of the AMPP is to improve the manufacture and performance of materials to enhance the U.S. quality of life, national security, and industrial productivity and economic growth. The AMPP will optimize Federal materials R&D through an interagency strategy, encompassing a research plan and associated funding levels that take advantage of opportunities for significant technical breakthroughs. The program represents the first coordinated Federal approach to materials science and technology.
