TMS Develops Corporate Membership Options . . .
. . . to Provide Discounted Benefit Packages to Organizations
TMS
Posted on: 9/6/2010... Before you renew your TMS membership for 2011, consider these questions: Do a number of your co-workers belong to TMS? Are you looking for ways to nurture employee recruitment and enrichment? Does your company hope to exhibit or advertise with TMS? If the answer to any of these questions is yes, your organization may want to consider the new TMS corporate membership options, which offer businesses discounted packages on membership, exhibit, and sponsorship opportunities.

TMS has designed three levels of corporate membership—gold, silver, and bronze—to accommodate the needs of companies of various sizes. Each membership option includes complimentary membership and meeting registrations for company employees, as well as promotion and marketing opportunities. View the different membership levels through the following link.

JOM is Live
This Month’s Theme: Energy
TMS
Posted on: 9/2/2010...

... The September issue of JOM is now on-line. In this issue, the journal offers articles on energy storage technologies, alternative energy in materials processing, and materials for nuclear power. In addition, “Transformational Energy Materials Project Launches Next Phase” introduces the next step in TMS’s exploration of materials for energy storage. Presented free on-line to all web users is “Enabling Renewable Energy—and the Future Grid—with Advanced Electricity Storage,” by Zhenguo Yang, Jun Liu, Suresh Baskaran, Carl H. Imhoff, and Jamie D. Holladay.

Completing the issue’s energy theme is the report, Linking Transformational Materials and Processing for an Energy-Efficient and Low-Carbon Economy: Creating the Vision and Accelerating Realization, inserted in its entirety at the end of the issue.

TMS members featured in the issue include Julia Greer, Duane Johnson, Michael Miller, Tresa Pollock, and Shijie Wang.

New on Materials Technology@TMS
Honoring David Pope and Carlos Tomé. . .
TMS
Posted on: 9/2/2010... In anticipation of the two honorary symposia slated for the TMS 2011 Annual Meeting, this month’s Spotlight features on Materials Technology@TMS include in-depth profiles on the honorees.

“Sowing the Seeds of Scientific Discovery: A Celebration of David Pope, His Legacy, and Influence” takes a look at how this University of Pennsylvania professor has touched the lives of young scientists throughout the years, while also making key contributions to the field of mechanical behavior of metals.

“Symposium Honors Accomplishments of Carlos Tomé” traces the career, through the words and recollections of his colleagues, of a recognized pioneer in the self-consistent method for modelling the plastic deformation of polycrystalline materials.

Both symposia are part of the Annual Meeting’s Advanced Characterization, Modeling and Materials Performance technical track.

Other new Materials Technology@TMS features include an article-by-article synopsis of the September issue of JOM, devoted almost exclusively to energy materials. Rounding out this month’s Spotlights is an examination of the skills sets that need to be developed in future generations of materials engineers in “Failure Is Not an Option in Educating Tomorrow’s Engineer” by Gregory Thompson, associate professor, University of Alabama.
