| Scope |
This symposium is focused on computational and experimental approaches to develop and validate alloys and additive manufacturing (AM) processes for naval, and naval aviation, marine, and offshore energy applications. The symposium highlights research in developing AM processes for strategic alloys (Bronze, Titanium, Stainless Steels, Super Alloys, and High Entropy Alloys), large format AM processes, application-driven alloy design employing integrated computational materials engineering (ICME), machine learning, and artificial intelligence (AI) as well as fatigue/fracture/failure analyses of AM processed marine materials and structures.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
1. Tailored AM processes and large-scale AM;
2. Microstructure-property relationships in AM marine materials and structures;
3. AM of strategic marine alloys;
4. Rapid solidification frameworks;
5. Environmental effects (biofouling, corrosion, sub-zero temperatures, etc.);
6. Computational modeling and simulation of AM processes;
7. Digital manufacturing and process in-situ monitoring. |
