SYMPOSIUM 8: 20th International Symposium on Advanced Processing and Manufacturing Technologies for Structural and Multifunctional Materials and Systems (APMT19)
Structural and multifunctional materials development is important for the frontier engineering sector, including energy, environment, healthcare, defense, nuclear, aerospace, and more. However, the performance of these advanced materials is largely dependent on the processing and manufacturing techniques employed. A thorough understanding of forming and sintering behavior is essential to achieve tailored microstructures, enhance material properties and fabricate complex geometries. The objective of this symposium is to discuss recent progress in technology development for processing and fabricating advanced structural and multifunctional materials systems. The symposium will cover innovations in technology development, as well as the state-of-the-art understanding of processing-microstructure-property-performance relationships. Topics will encompass a large spectrum of advanced materials, including non-oxide and oxide-based structural ceramics, fiber-reinforced and particulate composites, functionally gradient materials, and multifunctional materials, along with their components and devices. Eco-friendly and cost-effective processing approaches, along with the joining and degradation behavior, will also be covered.
