Gordon Research Conference on Physical Metallurgy 1991

Abstract

The 1991 Gordon Research Conference on Physical Metallurgy was held July 29-August 2, 1991 at the Plymouth College South location in Plymouth, New Hampshire. The Conference topic was Foundations of Microstructure Development. The study of microstructural development in metals and alloys is cornerstone of physical metallurgy. From an understanding of the compositional, thermodynamic and kinetic constraints, new levels of control and the development of new microstructures may be possible. The discussion was organized to present state- of-the-art developments in such keynote issues as alloy phase stability, crystal growth and solidification, diffusion in ordered alloys and multicomponent systems, interfacial structure and phase decomposition kinetics. There was a balanced coverage between theoretical and modeling analysis and critical experimental work involving verification tests and applications. In addition, an industrial perspective in the areas of aluminum alloys, aerospace materials and electronic materials was included in the program.
