As part of advancing DMI techniques, regular workshops are help for the DMI community to gather and present the state-of-the-art in measurement and science. If you have an idea for hosting a workshop, please contact Darren Pagan.

X-ray Micromechanics Course

A series of recorded lectures connecting high-energy X-ray measurements and the micromechanical response of crystalline materials are available online. Special focus is placed on providing the theory required to understand underlying algorithms in 3DXRD/HEDM methods. A corresponding set of notes for this course are available upon request.
