 ASM International 2017

2018 Jan 25–26 Mechanical Properties of Ceramics and Glass Hilton Daytona Beach Resort and Ocean Center, Daytona Beach, FL This course addresses the mechanical properties of ceramics and glasses for elastic properties, strength measurements, fracture parameters, and the indentation hardness. For each of these topical areas, the fundamentals of the properties are discussed, explained, and related to the structure and crystal chemistry of the materials and their microstructure. Standard test methods are covered. Attendees will be exposed to how the structures of ceramics and glasses determine those properties, become acquainted with standard test methods for the listed mechanical properties, and complete these tests and understand the results. In addition, students will learn how the results of some tests may be used to design with ceramics and glasses and about post-mortem analysis of failures.

Feb 6–7 Introduction to Metalcasting American Foundry Society, Schaumburg, IL This course introduces the process of metalcasting. It provides a broad picture of what happens in a casting production facility, while illustrating the technology, variables, and complexity involved in producing a casting. Contact: American Foundry Society, 1695 North Penny Lane, Schaumburg, IL 60173; tel: 800/537-4237 or 847/824-0181; fax: 847/824-7848; web: https://hub.afsinc.org/nc__Event?id= a2A1a000000WwlZEAS.

Feb 8–9 Practical Fracture Mechanics ASM World Headquarters, Materials Park, OH This course is designed to provide a practical understanding of fracture mechanics principles through a combination of lecture and problem solving workshops. Design and failure analysis for monotonic and cyclic loaded components will be covered. Take away a new understanding of topics such as fracture toughness testing, ductile fracture testing, stress-corrosion cracking, and fatigue failure. Linear and nonlinear fracture mechanics concepts and methods appropriate for a given loading or failure mode will be applied to make sense of this sometimes confusing discipline (1.5 CEUs).
