The conference will concentrate on the advancement of fundamental knowledge and development of materials and industrial processes for semi-solid manufacturing of high performance metal components. The conference topics will cover - but will not be limited to - the following subjects:
Process Development and Industrial Application
- Thixoforming (casting, forging, extrusion, rolling, etc.)
- Heating processes and equipment
- Liquid fraction control
- Rheoforming (casting, forging, extrusion, rolling, etc.)
- Industrial technology and applications
- Tool design and development
Material Development and Characterisation
- Rheological behaviour of semi-solid slurries
- Microstructure development in semi-solid state
- Alloy design and microstructure optimisation
Numerical Modelling and Simulation
- Modelling of rheological behaviour
- Modelling of microstructure evolution
- Simulation of semi-solid forming processes
Process and Parts Assessment
- Process stability and process windows
- Non destructive testing and inline quality control
- Microstructure and mechanical properties
- Economic potential and competing processes
- Ecological assessment of SSM technologies

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
