Professor Tadmor's research focuses on understanding material response from fundamental principles rather than phenomenology. Tadmor studies microscopic processes that lead to macroscopic phenomena such as fracture and plasticity using atomic-scale modeling and multiple-scale techniques. Professor Tadmor is also interested, on a more basic level, in the connection between continuum theory and atomistic models. Some recent specific topics include:
