First Announcement and Call for Papers
3rd International Conference on
DISTORTION ENGINEERING 2011
organised by: supported by: sponsored by: WHY TO ATTEND?
The various causes for distortion can be found in every step of the manufacturing process. Based on that the control of a component´s distortion only can be achieved by an interdisciplinary approach starting at the design phase of a part up to the final heat treatment. MAIN TOPICS
The International Conferences on Distortion Engineering The conference addresses the following topics which require no (IDE) 2005 and 2008 in Bremen have shown that this strict adherence: system-oriented point of view is necessary for the full • Measurement of distortion and residual stresses understanding and solution of distortion problems. The • Interactions of different production processes ongoing activities on distortion within research institutes • In-process measurement of deformations, temperatures, worldwide, also in the Collaborative Research Center SFB 570, stresses, and phase compositions as well as research and experience gained in industry, leads us • Control of distortion and quality management rd to announce the 3 IDE. • Methods of distortion compensation • Modeling of distortion related phenomena (plasticity, The main objective of the IDE 2011 is again to discuss on an creep, transformation plasticity, phase transformation, international level the state of the art of understanding basic segregations, ...) mechanisms and interactions between different production • Simulation of single and couplings of subsequent processes steps leading to distortion and the measures to control such as casting, forming, machining and heat treatment changes in shape and dimensions including modelling and • Measurement of material data and boundary conditions simulation in industrial production processes. Of primary (e.g. heat transfer) for process simulation interest are production processes of metallic parts, which are manufactured by forming and machining operations and heat treatment. Contributions which are focused on distortion www.distortion-engineering.de phenomena in thermal joining operations are also welcome. Collaborative Research Center »DISTORTION ENGINEERING« WHO SHOULD ATTEND? In 2001, the German Research Foundation (DFG, www.dfg.de) established the Collaborative Research Center “Distortion The conference will be a forum for engineers and researchers Engineering” (www.sfb570.uni-bremen.de) at the University of from universities as well as industry who are dealing with Bremen (www.uni-bremen.de). At the end of 2011 this CRC distortion phenomena in the whole process chain will finish its work and during IDE 2011 the final results will experimentally or by modeling and computer simulation. The be presented. conference also addresses experts who are engaged in measurement and control of distortion relevant parameters or who are looking at the field of distortion from a production management perspective. ORGANIZATION
The conference is organized by the SFB 570 in close cooperation with the Foundation Institute of Materials Science (IWT, www.iwt-bremen.de), sponsored by the DFG and the University of Bremen and supported by the German CALL FOR PAPERS Association for Materials and Heat Treatment (AWT, www.awt-online.org) and the International Federation of Heat Treatment and Surface Engineering (IFHTSE, www.ifhtse.org). An abstract of maximum 300 words should be submitted electronically before acceptance, preferably in Word or as a PDF file ([email protected]). The ab- stract should include the title of the paper, the author's names and addresses, telephone and fax numbers and e-mail addresses.

The Conference Center Bremen is located in the technology park close to the University Campus. It is adjacent to Bremen's largest public park which is on the outskirts surrounded by green fields and woods, enhancing a relaxed work atmosphere.
BREMEN
The Free Hanseatic City of Bremen (www.bremen-tourismus.de) encountered everywhere: The baroque and renaissance is an international seaport and trading center close to the backdrop of the Market Square, the Town Hall, the patrician North Sea, an independent state of the Federal Republic of houses, or the old-city quarters Schnoor and Böttcherstrasse Germany, consisting of the cities of Bremen and Bremerhaven, are examples of the many historical traces to discover. The covering an area of 400 square kilometers (the smallest of the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen always played a major role as 16 German states). The total population of the city of Bremen trading and commercial center and seaport: in mediaeval SchlachteSchlachte is 550,000, making it the tenth largest town in Germany. times as key player among the towns of the Hanseatic League, Another 130,000 people live in Bremerhaven. and today as second most important foreign trade location in Germany. The two-city state is an important location for German engineering competencies in automobile manufacture, The Schlachte Embankment along the River Weser is a magnet electronics, steel, shipbuilding, and aerospace industry. for locals and tourists: there are always people milling around Additionally, it plays a leading role in the food processing by the water, especially when the sun is out. The Klimahaus® industry, for example for coffee, beer, chocolate, or spices. In Bremerhaven 8° Ost opened in 2009 creates a spectacular the last years, the city has rapidly changed into a location for knowledge and adventure world and presents scientifically service and high-tech industry and is one of the German well-founded data, facts and phenomena on climate and centers of wind-energy engineering. climate protection in a fascinating way, making them tangible to visitors (http://klimahaus-bremerhaven.eu/panel/ Bremen's history goes back over 1,200 years and can be warming-weather-world-explorers).
TRAVEL B Bremen, its University and the Conference Center are easily reached by road, rail and air: • Airport Bremen: only 11 km from the University, directly connected by Tram No. 6 • Train station: only 3 km from the Conference Center, links Bremen to all major cities in Germany, directly connected by Tram No. 6 • Highways: well served by A1 (east-west) and A27 (north-south).
