REPORT


1990 E-MRS Spring Meeting Set for Strasbourg The 1990 Spring Meeting of the European Materials Research Society will be held May 29 through June 1 at the Council of Europe facilities, Strasbourg, France. This meeting especially seeks to focus "on creating the synergy between interdisciplinary, innovative technologies, on diffusing and exchanging information and promoting technology transfer towards industry." Papers are being solicited for the five symposia described below. Abstracts are due March 1,1990 and can be submitted to the symposium organizers, also identified below. A Summer School on Métal Matrix Composites is being planned May 25-29, prior to the meeting. K. Kainer, Materials Department, Qaustal University, is the organizer of the summer school. More information will be available in upcoming E-MRS conférence announcements.

as applications. Topics will range from fundamental understanding of the physical properties of high T( superconducting materials to the assessment of high Tc thin films and bulk material for device and other applications. Guideline topics for papers include: emerging materials; structure-properties relationship; bulk material, microstructure and applications; single crystals; thin films, préparation, patterning and devices; physical properties; and characterization of high Tc materials. Organizers: H.-U. Habermeier, Max-Planck-Institut fur Festkôrperforschung, Heisenbergstrasse 1, D7000 Stuttgart 80, W. Germany; téléphone (49) 7116860 231; fax (49) 7116874 371. E. Kaldis, Laboratorium fur Festkorperphysik, ETH - Honggersberg/HPF, CH8093 Zurich, Switzerland; téléphone (41) 1 377 22 31; fax (41) 13715989. Symposium B—Métal Matrix Composites In récognition of récent material achievements and current industrial interest in this subject, the symposium will be the first Pan-European meeting directed solely to métal matrix composites. The symposium will cover ail aspects of MMCs and will be divided into five separate sessions: • Manufacturing techniques: liquid state and solid state processing, preform technology; • Interfacial phenomena: wetting; thermal stability; characterization; » Mechanical properties: static and dy-

namic testing, defect tolérance, NDE; • Post production processing: forming, machining, joining, and • Applications: components and service expérience.
