■SCOPE
The ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science
and Technology of Japan started the Priority Assistance for the Formation of
Worldwide Renowned Centers of Research - 21 st Century Center of Excellence (21st
Century COE) Program. This program is based on the competitive principle where
third party evaluation decides to which program to offer the support and to give
priority support to the formation of world-class centers of research. Our program
“Center of Excellence for Advanced Structural and Functional Materials Design”
selected as one of 21 programs in a field of Chemistry and Materials Science.
This center is composed of materials related 4 Departments in the Graduate School
of Engineering; Materials Science and Engineering, Materials Science and Processing,
Manufacturing Science, and Adaptive Machine Systems, and 3 Research Institutes;
Welding and Joining Research Institute, Institute of Scientific and Industrial
Research and ResearchCenter for Ultra-High Voltage Electron Microscopy.
Recently, material research, particularly that of metallic materials, is specialized
only in individual elemental characteristics and narrow specialty fields, and
there is a feeling that the original role of material research has been forgotten.
The 7 educational and research organizations consisting the COE program cooperatively
try to develop new advanced structural and functional materials and achieve technological
breakthrough for their fabrication processes from electronic, atomic, microstructural
and morphological standpoints, focusing on their design and application: development
of high performance structural materials such as space plane and turbine blades
operating under a severe environment, new fabrication and assembling methods
for electronic devices, development of evaluation technique for materials reliability,
and development of new biomaterials for regeneration of biological hard tissues.
The aim of this international symposium is to report the scientific progress
in our 21st Century COE program and also to discuss related research topics.
The organization committee invites you to participate in this symposium to present
your recent results and to discuss with our COE members and also with international
attendee. |
