    The document discusses evolving trends in engineering material selection. Due to advances in material science, there is a growing trend of using composite materials that combine different materials at varying proportions. Mixing rules have also been developed to predict the properties of composite mixtures. Additionally, there is demand for multifunctional materials that can perform multiple roles, such as materials for automobiles that offer both mechanical and electromagnetic properties. Sustainability is also an important consideration, with designers focusing on eco-efficient solutions due to constraints on resources.
