AMEE: Advanced Materials for Extreme Environments

31.10 - 02.11.2012

Київ, Україна


Advancements in materials operating under extreme conditions define worldwide leadership for national chemical, electrical, electronic, aero-space, petroleum and steel industries.

Materials science discipline in the United States of America is one of the most powerful R&D segments.

Ukrainian materials science was providing more than 50% of materials innovations in the former Soviet Union. Today MS&E is the long term strategic priority for the both countries and great innovation resource for their sustainable development.

Value added materials are expected to become locomotive of innovative economy for next decade.

Thus, understanding these perspectives, both countries agreed to unite efforts and organize the first US-Ukraine Workshop «Advanced Materials for Extreme Environments» in 2012 aimed at discussion and establishment the bilateral research Program dedicated to basic and applied researches in Materials Science.

The purpose of this Workshop is to unite famous US and Ukrainian scientists, experts and technologists into discussion of state-of-the-art advances and new developments in the field of metallic, metal-ceramic and ceramic materials and technology of their production, determination of priority areas for future joint research.

About 60 high ranking scientists from research centres, institutes, and laboratories, mostly experts in the field of research and technology development of advanced ceramics-, metal- and carbon-based materials exploited under cryo- and high-temperature, corrosion aggressive, space and irradiation environment will take part in this Event.

Participants from more than 20 well established materials research centres of both Ukraine and United States of America.

The workshop is planned to be managed as working sessions, where the above said subjects will be presented in a form of papers.

Participation of young scientists / postgraduates with poster presentations is strongly encouraged.

A final meeting will be held as a «round table» for comprehensive evaluation of the presented papers and discussion of the problems raised.

The result from this discussion will be a solution concerning bilateral Program of R&D partnership.
