<p><font size="2">The 7th Pacific Rim International Conference on
Advanced Materials and Processing (PRICM - 07)<br>
1-5 August 2010<br>
Cairns Convention Centre<br>
Cairns, Australia*<br>
<br>
This Conference is the 7th in a series of international conferences<br>
devoted to advanced materials and processing. The Conference, which is<br>
held every three years, is jointly sponsored by the Chinese Society for<br>
Metals (CSM), The Japan Institute of Metals (JIM), The Korean Institute<br>
of Metals and Materials (KIM), Materials Australia (MA), and The<br>
Minerals, Metals and Materials Society (TMS) and organised in rotation.<br>
The purpose of PRICM is to provide an attractive forum for the exchange<br>
of scientific and technological information on materials and processing.<br>
The first Conference was held in Hanzhou, China, in 1992, followed by<br>
the second in Kyongju, Korea, in 1995, the third in Hawaii, USA, in<br>
1998, the fifth in Beijing, China, in 2004, the sixth in Jeju Island,<br>
Korea, in 2007. This is the first time for the PRICM to be held in<br>
Australia. Cairns is a tropical city in the northern part of Queensland.<br>
It is an excellent base for exploring the Great Barrier Reef, the<br>
largest coral reef system in the world and one of the seven wonders of<br>
the natural world.<br>
<br>
The PRICM-7 program will include plenary, keynote and invited lectures<br>
(see keynote lectures at <a
href="http://www.materialsaustralia.com.au/pricm7">http://www.materialsaustralia.com.au/pricm7</a>)<br>
and contributed presentations in the following symposia:<br>
<br>
* Symposium A: Advanced Steels and Processing<br>
* Symposium B: Advanced High Temperature Structural Materials<br>
* Symposium C: Light Metals and Alloys<br>
* Symposium D: Bulk Metallic Glasses and Nanomaterials<br>
* Symposium E: Solidification, Deformation and Related Processing<br>
* Symposium F: Modelling and Simulation of Microstructures and

* Symposium G: Thin Films and Surface Engineering<br>
* Symposium H: Advanced Ceramics<br>
* Symposium I: Biomaterials, Smart Materials and Structures<br>
* Symposium J: Materials Characterisation and Evaluation<br>
* Symposium K: Composites and Hybrid Materials<br>
* Symposium L: Energy Generation, Harvesting and Storage Materials<br>
* Symposium M: IOMMMS Global Materials Forum<br>
<br>
Organised by Materials Australia. Sponsored by CSM, JIM, KIM, TMS<br>
<br>
