Session 3: Use of Materials and Process Modeling Tools for Component Design Optimization
Location: 310-311 (Dayton Convention Center )
(Please check final room assignments on-site).
Session Description: Materials and process modeling tools have been developed to the point where component performance can be accurately predicted. Prediction of spatial distribution of microstructure and mechanical properties are now becoming possible. This is leading to assessment and optimization of feature- or location-specific component capabilities. These advanced component optimzation methods can lead to significant improvements in both component performance and cost.
