Critical issues in the development of high temperature structural materials

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5159540

This Engineering Foundation Conference was devoted to discussion of the current status of research and development of superalloys, refractory metals, intermetallic compounds, ceramics and composites based upon ceramics or intermetallics. The Conference, was unique in that workers in these diverse fields rarely converse in a single forum. Coverage of these materials ranged from basic science through processing and mechanical properties as well as discussion of current applications (superalloys and refractory metals) and future applications (principally composites and intermetallics). In addition, the importance of reducing costs of development of new materials was cited in the Keynote address of Dr. Ben Wilcox of the recently renamed Advanced Research Projects Agency. Separate abstracts were prepared for 34 papers in this conference.
