THERMEC’2018 is the tenth international conference on advanced materials series built upon the proven concept and continues the tradition of its nine predecessors, Japan (1988), Australia (1997), USA (2000), Spain (2003), Vancouver, Canada ( 2006), Berlin, Germany (2009), Quebec City, Canada (2011), Las Vegas, USA ( 2013) and the last THERMEC’2016 in Graz, Austria. This conference series provides a forum for researchers around the globe to present papers on recent advances in the overall field of science and technology of processing and manufacturing of advanced materials. Scope The Conference will cover all aspects of processing, fabrication, structure/property evaluation and applications of both ferrous and non-ferrous materials, composites including biomaterials, fuel cells/hydrogen storage technologies, batteries, supercapacitors, nanomaterials for energy and structural applications, aerospace structural metallic materials, bulk metallic glasses and other advanced materials. In addition, a special symposium on Cold Spray is being organized for the first time in association with CEA. Oral and poster presentations dealing with the various conference topics listed in this circular will be included in the conference program. In addition to the contributed presentations, the conference committee has invited eminent internationally known researchers in key areas of advanced materials processing/manufacturing from various countries to deliver Plenary/Keynote lectures at THERMEC’2018.
