Glass Under Extreme Conditions

This session will cover recent progress in understanding structure and properties of glass under extreme conditions, such as high pressure, high stress, high temperature, high radiation, highly reactive conditions, etc. Many manufacturing processes such as fiber drawing, laser writing or cutting, and spark plasma sintering are concerned with these unique conditions. New knowledge of glass structure and properties under extreme conditions can help design glass for manufacturing, as well as in utilizing such conditions to synthesize glass with superior properties. Both experimental and computational studies will be included.
