Seminar - Seattle, May 18, 2010

Managing and Using Materials Information

Materials data management, materials strategy, and eco-design

This event will be held alongside the SAMPE 2010 Spring Conference & Exhibition. It is open to all, and is not part of the SAMPE event. However, it will be held at the nearby Grand Hyatt Seattle hotel, and the agenda has been designed to facilitate those who would like to join us for the morning and lunch, before attending afternoon SAMPE conference sesssions.

The seminar is a general overview and update of materials information technology and its use in engineering enterprises. Given the proximity to the SAMPE conference, composite materials will be a strong focus. However, the seminar will be relevant to users or manufacturers of all materials types - metals, composites, plastics, and ceramics.
