The 2nd International Congress on 3DMS : 3D Materials Science 2014, L’Impérial Palace, Annecy, France, June 29-July 2 : Congress proceedings
Résumé
This is a collection of manuscripts presented at the 2nd International Congress on 3D Materials
Science, a conference organized by The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society (TMS), the Advanced
Characterization, Testing and Simulation Committee, and the six congress organizers, and held in
Annecy, France, on June 29–July 2, 2014.
Building on the great success of the first event in 2012, the 2nd Congress on 3D Materials Science
convened researchers and engineers to assess the state-of-the-art in 3D materials science and
determine paths to further the global advancement of this field. More than 150 presenters and
attendees from all over the world contributed to this congress in the form of presentations, lively
discussions, and manuscripts presented in this volume. The international advisory committee
members, representing 11 different countries, actively participated in selecting the contributions,
reviewing the manuscripts, and promoting the congress.
The congress consisted of 2 keynote presentations from international experts, 96 contributed
presentations (in two parallel sessions), 75 poster presentations, and 1 panel discussion. From the
poster sessions, outstanding posters were selected for awards, which were presented to the authors
at the congress dinner. The event concluded with a closing panel of experts focusing the discussion
on the evolution of 3D materials science in the period between the two congresses and the future
directions.
The 20 papers presented in this proceedings publication are divided into 6 sections: (1) Acquisition
and Handling of 3D Data; (2) Microstructure/Property Relationship in 3D: Characterization and
Simulation; (3) Microstructure/Property Relationship in 3D: Deformation and Damage; (4) New
Experimental Techniques; (5) Analysis at the Nanoscale; (6) Dynamic Processes. It is our hope
that the 2nd International Congress on 3D Materials Science and these proceedings will further
the implementation of three-dimensional materials science and broaden its variety of applications.
