Final Program

Final Program The Seventh Pacific Rim International Conference on Advanced Materials and Processing August 2-6, 2010 Cairns, Australia Organized by Materials Australia (MA) Sponsored by The Chinese Society for Metals (CSM) The Japan Institute of Metals (JIM) The Korean Institute of Metals and Materials (KIM) The Minerals, Metals and Materials Society, USA (TMS) 1 WELCOME TO PRICM-7 Dear Participants, On behalf of the International and Local Organising Committees of the 7th Pacific Rim International Conference on Advanced Materials and Processing (PRICM-7), I express my warmest welcome to all participants of the PRICM-7 conference. It is a great honour for us to host this international event on 2-6 August, 2010 in Cairns, Australia. The Pacific Rim International Conference on Advanced Materials and Processing is held every three years, jointly sponsored by the Chinese Society for Metals (CSM), The Japan Institute of Metals (JIM), The Korean Institute of Metals and Materials (KIM), Materials Australia (MA), and The Minerals, Metals and Materials Society (TMS) and organised in rotation. The purpose of PRICM is to provide an attractive forum for the exchange of scientific and technological information on materials and processing. The first Conference was held in Hanzhou, China, in 1992, followed by the second in Kyongju, Korea, in 1995, the third in Hawaii, USA, in 1998, the fifth in Beijing, China, in 2004, the sixth in Jeju Island, Korea, in 2007. This is the first time for the PRICM to be held in Australia. The PRICM-7 conference represents one of the largest-scale interactions in the Asia-Pacific region that crosses traditional discipline boundaries. It brings together leading scientists, technologists and engineers from the Asia-Pacific region and around the world to discuss contemporary discoveries and innovations in the rapidly evolving field of materials and processing. This event is also intended to foster stronger and closer interactions between materials practitioners and their international counterparts. As on previous occasions, this Conference covers most aspects of advanced materials and the processes by which they are produced. Particular emphasis is placed on 13 symposia, covering over 1250 presentations and over 720 papers in the proceedings. A truly unique feature the PRICM-7 conference is the large number, over 150 plenary, keynote and invited speakers, of internationally distinguished scientists, engineers and technologists. It would be difficult to make this large-scale event successful without the active participation of these distinguished experts. I gratefully appreciate their tremendous support. I would like to express my deep appreciation of the great efforts made by the In-Country Technical Representatives, Symposia Chairs, members of the Organising Committees and the International Advisory Committee, and the support of the International Organisation of Materials, Metals and Mineral Societies (IOMMMS). I wish to thank the Air Force Office of Scientific Research, Asian Office of Aerospace Research and Development, the U.S. Army International Technology Centre-Pacific, the Office of Naval Research Global for their contribution to the success of this conference. We also acknowledge gratefully the financial support from the Australian Synchrotron, CAST CRC, Defense Materials Technology Centre (DMTC), The University of Queensland, and Trans Tech Publications Inc. Cairns is a tropical city in the northern part of Queensland. It is an excellent base for exploring the Great Barrier Reef, the largest coral reef system in the world and one of the seven wonders of the natural world. I wish the participants will take advantage of the conference break to explore this beautiful region of the world and to enjoy the sceneries. I wish all of you an enjoyable time at this conference and in Cairns.
