Abstract
The paper is a personal perspective on the design of metallic ultra-high temperature materials (UHTMs). Specifically, the alloy design “landscape” of metallic UHTMs was considered from the viewpoint of the alloy design methodology NICE. The concepts of synergy, entanglement and self-regulation and their significance for alloy design/development were discussed. The risks, ecological challenges and material-environment interactions associated with the development of metallic UHTMs were highlighted. The “landscape” showed that beneath the complexities of alloy design lies an elegant and powerful unity of specific parameters that link logically and that progress can be made by recognising those interrelationships between parameters that generate interesting, diverse, and complex alloys.
