Wednesday Morning, 19 September Special Interest Seminar on New Opportunities for PM in the Emerging Markets for Renewable Energy
Chairman: Dr Luc Federzoni (CEA Liten, France)
The emergence of new markets of renewable energy like photovoltaics batteries, gives new opportunity for the powder metallurgy community. Indeed, the advantage to provide net-shape, complex parts, new functional materials is a key point on applications where the cost is essential to give credibility/acceptance on products. During this seminar, different examples of applications of powder metallurgy on different products in the field on the renewable energy industrial applications will be presented and the potential of applications of such technologies for the future will be discussed during a round-table. Opportunity for new research topics from the development of new type/grade of powders, development of new forming processes will also be discussed.

Wednesday Morning, 19 September Special Interest Seminar on Metal Injection Moulding of Titanium Based Materials in 2012
Chairmen: Dr Marco Actis Grande (Politecnico di Torino, Italy) Dr Frank Petzoldt (Fraunhofer IFAM, Germany) Dr Bruno Vicenzi (Mimitalia srl, Italy)
With a focus on MIM of Titanium and Ti-based materials, we take a close look at the current status of this technology. This seminar will give an outline on the technology development over the last few years, and try to determine what did change as expected and what did not, and also, what are the new expectations for the future. Titanium is gaining ground in terms of knowledge, availability, reliability of MIM products, and eventually applications and market, and even though the market share is still no larger than 1%, the technology is of lively interest among academia. The seminar will host selected speakers from industry and academia, dealing with different aspects of the process, of the materials and of the applications.

Wednesday Morning, 19 September Special Interest Seminar on Hard Materials Atoms to Applications: Multi-Scale Modelling and Experiments
Chairmen: Dr Steven Moseley (Hilti AG, Liechtenstein) Dr Bryan Roebuck (NPL Materials Centre, United Kingdom)
The manufacturing, performance and reliability of hardmetal components will benefit from combining modelling and experimental techniques through a wide length scale range. Hardmetals/cemented carbides are heterogeneous in nature, and modelling of their behaviour will require a multi-scale and multi-disciplinary approach, through meso to macroscale and from thermodynamics to mechanics. This seminar will provide an insight into some of the methods, both computational and experimental, that are currently being applied to hardmetals and other materials, including: Overviews of modelling and experimental methods available In-depth analyses of selected methods Case studies of simulation used for actual components and production technologies

Wednesday Morning, 19 September Special Interest Seminar on Material Properties & Material Selection for Hot Isostatic Pressing
Chairmen: Dr Anders Eklund (Avure Technologies AB, Sweden) Mrs Adeline Riou (Erasteel SAS, France)
HIP has developed over the years to become a high-performance, high-quality and cost-effective process for a wide range of components such as large and massive near net shape stainless parts for the oil and gas industry to high performance PM HSS cutting tools. The versatility and flexibility of the HIP process, combined with superior material properties, make it an ideal choice for new applications, among other powder metallurgy technologies. The seminar shows an overview of some original applications of Hot Isostatic Pressing technology including: Aerospace Energy Forest technology TV and computer screens.
