Materials and Design publishes original research reports, review articles and express communications covering the studies of structure and properties of inorganic and organic materials, advances in synthesis, processing, characterisation and testing, design of materials and engineering systems, and applications in technology. The journal is multi-disciplinary in nature, and seeks to bring together aspects of materials science, engineering, physics, and chemistry. In exploring the themes ranging from materials to design, it also pursues the elucidation of underlying connections between natural and artificial, and experiment and modelling.Manuscripts submitted to Materials and Design are sought to contain elements of discovery and surprise that often accompany the obtention of new insights into the architecture and function of matter.

《材料與設計》出版原創(chuàng)研究報告、評論文章和通訊快報，內(nèi)容涵蓋無機和有機材料的結(jié)構和性能研究、合成、加工、表征和測試方面的進展、材料和工程系統(tǒng)的設計以及技術應用。該雜志是多學科的性質(zhì)，并尋求將材料科學、工程、物理和化學方面的內(nèi)容結(jié)合起來。在探索從材料到設計的主題時，它也追求闡明自然和人工之間的潛在聯(lián)系，以及實驗和建模。提交給材料和設計的手稿力求包含發(fā)現(xiàn)和驚喜的元素，通常伴隨著對物質(zhì)的結(jié)構和功能的新見解的獲得。
