JUNIOR EUROMAT 2010

For the third time, JUNIOR EUROMAT will be organised as a poster conference, i. e. all the contributions will be on display as posters. But the poster authors are also requested to introduce their poster orally in one of the lecture halls (3 minutes each) using 3 transparencies. Subsequently, the authors will be available for further discussion in front of the poster panels. The sessions will be opened by keynote lectures.

Those wishing to present a poster should submit their proposal no later than 3 March 2010 via email or internet to the Conference Secretariat in an one page abstract indicating the author and his or her affiliation as well as the topical division. The abstract should be accompanied by a short curriculum vitae.

The topics are:
A Mechanical Properties: Plastic Deformation, Fatigue, Fracture, Creep
B Magnetic Properites, Superconductivity, Electronic Materials
C Corrosion, Wear, Biocompatibility
D Fundamental Aspects: Diffusion, Transformation, Dislocation Theory
E Metals: Al-, Mg-, Ti-, Ni- Alloys, Steel, Intermetallics, MMCs, Foams
F Ceramics, CMC, Glass
G Polymers, Polymer-based Composites
H Processing: Casting, Rolling, Extrusion, Powder Technology, Machining, Joining
I Surface Engineering: Laser, Spraying, CVD
K Simulation Methods and Modelling Methods
L Materials Characterisation:
Mechanical Testing, Advanced Analytical Techniques NDE, Materialographie
M Biomimetic and Bioinspired Approaches; Biofunctional Materials
N Nanostructured Materials
P Electronic and Photonic Materials

The recipient of the 'FEMS Lecturer Award for Excellence in MSE' in 2011 will be decided in a special session at junior Euromat where shortlisted candidates will give a presentation to the assembled audience.
