The exciting advances in materials science involving the development of advanced and specialty materials have not been met with corresponding progress in the science and technology for joining these new materials. Joining is a critical and often-overlooked technology that dictates the success of components and devices produced across all industrial sectors. Consequently, continued advances in joining of advanced and specialty materials are mandatory for sustained success.
This program focuses mainly on recent developments in joining of advanced and specialty materials. Session topics include: Brazing, Joining for Fuel Cell Applications, Microjoining, Advances in Pb-Free Solders, Joining and Repair for Engine Components, and Aspects of Fusion Welding. A session on Practical Aspects of Joining, aimed at the interests of the practitioner, will also be offered. Participants and attendees will gain a deeper understanding of joining issues related to production of devices and components of current interest in several key industrial sectors.
