This book was created from invited lectures and conference contributions of the "Metallography & Fractography 2022" conference, which is featured as an essential event for the presentation of results achieved in materials science and engineering. The conference participants come from universities, academic research institutions and different branches of industry with an interest in materials science and engineering. The conference also has strong support from companies that are experts in unique experimental equipment. The conference's ambition is regularly to expand the program to cover new approaches, new advanced materials and technologies, new findings in fundamental research and practical production, and to intensify international contacts.
