Abstract
This talk will discuss three approaches to the development of High strength structural steels which involve Macroscopic Mesoscopic and Microscopic Processes.
I will first discuss simple geometric ideas related to steel design ,then I will deal with the development of compositional graded materials and their possible applications .Finally I will discuss approaches based on combined plasticity and phase transitions to develop high strength steels for a variety of possible applications .
