As a result, the relative U.S. position in a number of MSE subfields is in a state of flux. To understand better this trend and its implications for the U.S. economy and national security, the Department of Defense (DOD) asked the NRC to assess the status and impacts of the global spread of MSE R&D. This report presents a discussion of drivers affecting U.S. companies (TM) decisions about location of MSE R&D, an analysis of impacts on the U.S. economy and national security, and recommendations to ensure continued U.S. access to critical MSE R&D.Globalization of materials research and developmentGlobalizationEconomic aspectsUnited StatesGlobalizationPolitical aspectsUnited StatesMaterials scienceGovernment policyUnited StatesMaterials scienceResearchGlobalizationEconomic aspectsGlobalizationPolitical aspectsMaterials scienceGovernment policyMaterials scienceResearch.620.1122National Research Council (U.S.).Committee on Globalization of Materials Research and Development.National Research Council (U.S.).National Materials Advisory Board.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910956746803321Globalization of materials R&D4357791UNINA
