Materials Characterisation 2015

Materials Characterisation 20157th International Conference on Computational Methods and Experiments in Materials Characterisation

22 - 24 April, 2015
València, Spain

Organised by:
Wessex Institute, UK

Overview

Following the success of the six previous meetings in this series (Santa Fe, New Mexico, in 2003; Portland, Maine, in 2005; Bologna, Italy, in 2007; New Forest Campus of the Wessex Institute in 2009; Kos, Greece, in 2011 and Siena, Italy, in 2013), it has been decided to reconvene the International Conference of Computational Methods and Experiments in Materials Characterisation.

The aim of the conference is to facilitate interactions within the research community and discuss the latest developments in this rapidly advancing field. The meeting responds to the demand for high quality products for both industry and consumers, which has led to rapid developments in materials science and engineering. This requires the characterisation of the physical and chemical properties of the materials. Consideration of different experimental techniques as well as computer simulation methods is essential to achieve a proper analysis. A very wide range of materials, starting with metals through polymers and semiconductors to composites, necessitates a whole spectrum of material characterisation experimental techniques and numerical methods.

All papers to be published in the conference volume as well as those from previous meetings are permanently archived at http://library.witpress.com where they are available to the international community.
