(Advances in welding, materials processing and evaluation)
The traveler attended the 5th International Symposium of the Japan Welding Society titled Advanced Technology in Welding, Materials Processing and Evaluation,'' at Makuhari, Tokyo, Japan; and afterwards visited facilities of Toshiba Corporation in Kawasaki and Yokohama. Ten invited lectures at the Symposium included such topics as laser material processing, microjoining, welding advances with computers, robotization, and the physics of welding processes. The invited paper presented by the traveler was titled State of the Technology for Joining Ceramics for High-Temperature Structural Applications.'' The traveler also chaired a session on joining of ceramics. The Proceedings of the Symposium, which were published in two volumes and distributed at the meeting, are available to colleagues at ORNL involved in this type of research. Following the Symposium the traveler had discussions with researchers at Toshiba Corporation on their work on high-temperature superconducting ceramics, and on aluminum nitride and silicon nitride materials.
