Process-structure-property (PSP) linkages are central to the development and deployment of advanced materials in emerging technologies. Conventional approaches for establishing these are generally highly customized, qualitative, and demand major investments of time and effort. In this paper, we formulate novel, data-driven, high throughput, assays for exploring PSP linkages in structural metals. These assays are built on recent advances in low-dimensional quantification of material structure using spatial correlations and principal component analyses, as well as in the mechanical characterization using spherical nanoindentation. These novel protocols are demonstrated on a dual phase (DP) steel that exhibits rich multiphase polycrystalline microstructures.
