About the Conference
Materials have defined the evolution of human civilization. Gone are the stone, bronze, and iron ages. In the digital age, it’s all about optimally combining different materials like lightweight materials, smart materials, shape memory alloys, carbon fibres, polymers etc., in an effort to add value to the machines they make. But what makes these materials is the intricate technology used to manufacture it. Different processes are known to add different values to the material. This conference aims to bridge the knowledge gap between different manufacturing processes, the value they add to the material, and why it is necessary. Further, to aid participants get an opportunity to listen to, learn from and interact with renown speakers and fellow researchers worldwide, the conference is being held in an online mode.
Do join us in this conference to get to know how the latest and greatest technologies are enforced, and why it’s done in a certain way. Learn how these technologies can enhance human life. Discover how processing enhances the mechanical behaviour of different materials. Experience the plethora of knowledge. Engage in exchange and transfer of technical wisdom in the areas of materials, their processing and characterization.
