The Merton C. Flemings Symposium

June 28-30, 2000 · MERTON C. FLEMINGS SYMPOSIUM · Cambridge, Massachusetts

Flemings Photo This symposium at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is being held to honor Professor Merton C. Fleming's many years of service to the field of materials science education and research. The symposium will celebrate his exceptionally productive career and contributions as an educator, a researcher, a technology policy leader, a friend, and a mentor. The Department of Materials Science and Engineering (DMSE), MIT, and The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society (TMS) are the primary sponsors of the symposium. Several other organizations and companies to which to which Professor Flemings' has made significant contributions have agreed to cosponsor the event.

The technical sessions of the Merton C. Flemings Symposium will be held on the MIT campus on the mornings and afternoons of Wednesday June 28, and Thursday, June 29, and Friday morning, June 30. The topics of the major sessions are aligned with key contributions by Professor Flemings, his students, and his collaborators: dendritic solidification dynamics, control of casting quality, interdendritic fluid flow, semisolid processing, innovative materials processing, and materials science and engineering education. A distinguised list of speakers has been invited, and all invited and contributed papers will be published in a proceedings volume, along with a selection of Merton C. Fleming's most important papers. A copy of the proceedings is included as part of the registration fee.
