Abstract

[Materials science is an interdisciplinary field of research comprising various areas such as metallurgy, polymer science, ceramics, solid state physics, and semiconductors. The integration of these areas under a single field enables researchers to exchange knowledge, expertise, and experimental techniques and accelerates advances in materials science. As a common language for all fields of science and technology, mathematics can provide a common ground in materials science research and contribute to its development. We begin our journey into materials science with the story of how this field emerged in the 1950s in the United States of America.]
