Materials Processing Fundamentals 2021

• Experimental, analytical, physical, and computer modeling of physical chemistry and thermodynamics

• Modeling of the transport phenomena in materials processing and metallurgical processes involving iron, steel, nonferrous metals, and composites

• Second-phase particles in metals and processes and the fundamentals (experimental studies or theoretical studies) on the nucleation, growth, motion, and removal of these particles from the molten metal or reactors

• Physical chemistry, thermodynamics, and kinetics for the production and refining of rare-earth metals

• Control of industrial processes in the field of extraction and processing of metals and materials
