SYMPOSIUM D
STRUCTURAL MATERIALS: PROCESSING, PROPERTIES AND APPLICATIONS
The materials nowadays available are the result of a huge effort of research and technological and scientific development. However, the challenges are not ended, better performance materials, able to face new applications and meet more rigid operational requirements continue to be claimed by the society. A fundamental feature to meet these constant needs is to continue to advance towards the understanding of the relationships between structure and properties and enhancing the scientific component of the materials processing technologies.
Therefore, structural materials that present higher resistance and better correlations between properties and density are being investigated in polymers, metals, ceramics and composites.
This symposium is devoted to the processing of materials – metals, ceramics, polymers and composites and applications of materials, focusing the following themes related to structural materials.
Metals, ceramics, and polymers for optimized mechanical performance
High temperature ceramics
High performance composites
Advanced metallic alloys
Mechanic behavior of metallic alloys
Layered, multifunctional surfaces
Grain boundary engineering
Engineering surfaces and Interfaces
Structure-property relationships of ceramics/metals/polymers and composites
