This collection of abstracts aim to present all research and discussion at this symposium in a pedagogical and holistic manner. Every abstract is limited to 250 - 300 words addressing current topics and challenges being faced in development of these materials. Prior mistakes, discrepancies and malpractices are elaborately addressed to avoid them in future. Physical metallurgy, plastic deformation and crystallography plays an important role in selection of materials. This is no aavailable elsewhere and is thouroughly revised.
