9-th (14) International Seminar on Ferroelastics Physics

Welcome to ISFP-9

The 9-th International Seminar on Ferroelastics Physics will be held on September 12 - 15, 2018 at the Voronezh State Technical University, Russia. This Seminar is designed to bring together the international community of scientists interested in recent developments in all branches of ferroelastics investigations. The scope of the Seminar will be similar to that of the preceding seminar ISFP-8(13) in Voronezh (2015) and will cover all aspects of processing, structure, properties and applications of ferroelastic crystals.
