  • Welcoming Reception
    October 2, 2005

At this early date, these deadlines may be delayed marginally. Also, there will be authors who will still submit their papers for the Symposium Proceedings via a typed manuscript that follows the same format printed in the previous five symposium volumes.

Technical Program

The symposium will cover all aspects of the production behavior and metallurgical performance of our three most widely used superalloys and derivatives. There are continuing innovations and improvements to be considered. Papers on cast, wrought and powder production will cover solidification, processing, mechanical behavior, environment and stability, welding/joining and repair technology.
