This symposium focuses on structure, property, processing, and performance
interrelationships for emerging soft magnetic materials, permanent magnets, and
magnetocaloric materials. Hybrid materials, such as materials that display both
a magnetocaloric and elastocaloric effect. The scope includes manufacturing
methods, characterization, and applications.
We encourage topics that focus on the economic effects that magnetic materials
have on manufacturing and adaptation of technologies and applications. The
symposium will place a particular interest on emerging and established advanced
manufacturing methods such as: 1. additive manufacturing, 2. top-down and
bottom up bulk nano-manufacturing, 3. thermal-mechanical and thermal magnetic
processing, and 4. energy dense processing such as RF, microwave, high pressure
and high magnetic field processing. In a session on critical raw materials, we
welcome contributions on issues surrounding critical raw materials use,
optimization and/or substitution in energy applications.
The accelerated expansion of global energy demands within the recent decade may
be interpreted as an indicator of quality of life and the environment. Energy
technologies hinge on efficient conversion and power densification. Engineering
materials, some of which are subject to supply risks, price volatility, or
concerns about long-term availability has been shown to have significant
impacts on viability, reliability, and efficiency of power conversion.
This symposium focuses on structure, property, processing, and performance
interrelationships for emerging soft and hard magnetic materials systems as
well as hybrid systems such as combined magnetocaloric and elastocaloric
materials which are relevant for energy and power conversion applications. A
special focus of this symposium will be targeted at advanced manufacturing
approaches and the interface of engineered materials with device level
performance and applications which rely on the fundamental magnetic
interactions between structure and electromagnetic energy.
