UK Solidification Workshop 2019

UK Solidification Workshop for research students, academics, engineers, product developers, process designers and R&D managers involved in any solidification-based manufacturing process.

The EPSRC Future Liquid Metal Engineering (LiME) Hub presents a free 2 day UK Solidification Workshop on 24th & 25th October 2019 at Brunel University London.

The UK Solidification Workshop 2019 aims to provide a networking platform for the UK solidification community, building on the successful 6th Decennial International Conference on Solidification Processing held in Old Windsor two years ago. The specific objectives are:

  • To bring together solidification researchers from higher education institutions, research organisations and industrial companies in the UK
  • To promote collaboration between members of the solidification community
  • To map out solidification research across the UK in terms of people, research activities and funding levels

The workshop will feature:

  • Presentations from EPSRC and IOM3 on metallic material research in the UK
  • Introduction to the LiME Hub
  • Presentations from major UK solidification research groups to highlight their activities
  • A discussion on challenges in solidification and the role of the UK solidification community
  • Poster session to showcase specific research outcomes
  • An ‘elevator pitch’ competition for research students
  • Networking and workshop dinner on the evening of the first day
  • A tour of the facilities at BCAST (the Brunel Centre for Advanced Solidification Technology)

For full information and to register for the event, please visit the LiME Hub.

We look forward to seeing you there.
