2011 Functional and Structural Nanomaterials: Fabrication, Properties, Applications & Implications
This symposium will address the application, fabrication and fundamental materials science of nanomaterials, which are a class of materials whose morphology, structure or performance is dominated by phenomenon attributed to the "nano" length scale (<100 nm). Technological issues about the scale up and integration of nanomaterials into functional architectures and bulk systems for engineering applications will also be discussed. [Learn more]
Advances in Mechanics of One-Dimensional Micro/Nano Materials
This symposium will focus on the mechanics of micro/nano-scale materials including wires, tubes, pillars, and fibers (one-dimensional or 1-D). In many application venues including flexible systems the mechanical properties of 1-D materials can determine the reliability and performance of such devices. [Learn more]
Bulk Metallic Glasses VIII
This symposium will provide fundamental understanding and theoretical modeling of processing and mechanical behavior of bulk metallic glasses (BMGs). Mechanical behavior of BMGs is among the new, exciting fields of research that are fully illustrating their advantages over crystalline alloys. [Learn more]
Surfaces and Heterostructures at Nano- or Micro-Scale and Their Characterization, Properties
In this symposium, participating scientists and engineers will stimulate new ideas and efforts for further advancement and integration of nanoscale heterostructures and also discuss the involved fundamental issues in their growth mechanisms and properties. A few joint sessions with Nanomaterials Committee as well as Surface Engineering Committee are also planned. [Learn more]
