U.S.-Japan Joint Seminar: Solidification Processing of Advanced Materials/May 1989/Sendai, Japan

该奖项将支持麻省理工学院的默顿·C·弗莱明斯教授和日本东京大学的内田隆教授举办的关于“先进材料的凝固加工”的研讨会。与会者将于1989年5月22日至25日在日本仙台举行会议，交流最近的研究成果，并促进未来的联合研究项目。研讨会将主要讨论合金、陶瓷和电子材料凝固的技术和原理，包括快速凝固过程；高完整性铸件的计算机辅助分析和设计；金属基复合材料；创新的铸造和凝固技术；以及先进材料的结构和性能之间的关系。这次研讨会将继续举行一系列这样的美日联席会议。自上次会议以来的五年里，在新材料、固化加工以及利用计算机加强相关技术方面取得了许多进展。日本和美国是世界上凝固科学研究的中心，联合讨论这两个国家的最新成果可能会对高科技铸件产生重要影响，例如用于涡轮叶片、连铸材料、复杂形状的铸造和先进材料的铸造。

This award will support a seminar on "Solidification Processing of Advanced Materials," organized by Prof. Merton C. Flemings of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Prof. Takateru Umeda of the University of Tokyo, Japan. Participants will meet in Sendai, Japan, May 22-25, 1989 to exchange recent research results and promote future joint research projects. The seminar will deal primarily with the technology and principles of alloy, ceramic, and electronic material solidification, including rapid solidification processes; computer-aided analysis and design of high-integrity castings; metal matrix composites; innovative casting and solidification techniques; and relations between structure and properties of advanced materials. This seminar will continue a series of such U.S.-Japan joint meetings. In the five years since the last meeting, there have been many advances in new materials, solidification processing, and the use of computers to enhance related technologies. Japan and the U.S. are the world centers for research on solidification science, and the joint discussion of the latest results from these countries could have important implications for high-technology castings as used, for example, in turbine blades, continuous-cast materials, the casting of intricate shapes, and casting of advanced materials.
