Linking Transformational Materials and Processing for an Energy-Efficient and Low-Carbon Economy
TMS
Posted on: 3/18/2010... On February 18, TMS convened an Energy Materials Blue Ribbon Panel as an initial step in a major project commissioned by the Department of Energy (DOE) Industrial Technologies Program (ITP), focusing on areas where new materials and processing breakthroughs can lead to transformational advances in energy efficiency, energy security, and carbon emission reductions. You can find out more about this exciting initiative, its goals, and potential impact in this month’s Materials and Society Community Spotlight feature.

Also new this month is an interview with Katsuyo Thornton, chair of TMS’ new ICME Committee on the near- and long-term directions for this group. Other new Spotlight features give you the opportunity to learn the background stories of the “TMS, MSE, and Me” video contest winners and to read an excerpt of “Undergraduate Materials Education 2010: Status and Recommendations,” a comprehensive overview by Lyle H. Schwartz that has also been published in the March 2010 issue of JOM.

While reviewing these new articles, make sure you take advantage of the other resources Materials Technology@TMS has to offer, including materials news stories updated on a daily basis and opportunities for online resource sharing with other materials scientists and engineers from throughout the world.

A Final Opportunity to Present Your Work at MS&T'10
Abstract Deadline has been extended to March 29
TMS
Posted on: 3/16/2010...

There is still time to join your TMS colleagues at the Materials Science & Technology 2010 (MS&T'10) conference October 17–21 in Houston, Texas because the abstract deadline has been extended to March 29.

MS&T'10 brings together scientists, engineers, students, and suppliers from the four MS&T partner materials societies—the American Ceramic Society, the Association for Iron & Steel Technology, ASM International, and TMS. In 2010, NACE International will also join as co-sponsors for the event. The conference is accepting abstracts for 80 symposia in the following technical areas:

  • Biomaterial Technology
  • Ceramic and Glass Materials
  • Corrosion Control and Sustainability
  • Electronic and Magnetic Materials
  • Environmental and Energy Issues
  • Fundamentals and Characterization
  • Iron and Steel
  • Materials Performance
  • Nanotechnology
  • Processing and Product Manufacturing
  • Special Topics

All abstracts must be submitted by March 29 to be included in the fall conference's technical program. To submit an abstract, click on the following link.
