Overview:
High temperature materials continue to be demanding performance drivers in areas such as propulsion and hypersonics. However, as temperature demands increase, environmental considerations such as sulphidation and oxidation resistance grow in importance and may limit development. Further, cost, environmental and strategic sustainability of materials and alloying elements, and the need for accelerated development and insertion of materials drive the community ever harder to provide solutions. Presentations covering recent developments in the field include: the limits of high temperature materials, perceived issues limiting performance development in current high temperature materials, and the cost and sustainability of alloying elements. Joint Session: Modeling and Simulation of High Temperature Materials on Monday, May 23, 2011 The use of modeling and simulation to accelerate the development of high-temperature materials including methods to solve perceived limits to development are driving future directions in high-temperature materials. The next generation of technology to enable increased performance and life of high temperature systems, include ceramic matrix composites, refractory silicides, intermetallics and coatings
