First let us focus on the TiAl ordered intermetallic alloys that represent due to very favourable strength-to-ratio, and thus light weight required by transport vehicles, an advanced material for the aerospace and automotive applications. The second example is closer to classical materials. The properties of polycrystals can be, at least in principle, improved by grain boundary engineering.
