2001 TMS FALL EXTRACTION AND PROCESS METALLURGY MEETING
Computational Modeling of Materials, Minerals, and Metals
September 23-26, 2001 - San Diego, California
     

The 2001 Fall Extraction and Process Metallurgy Meeting--Computational Modeling of Materials, Minerals, and Metals Processing Symposium, sponsored by the Extraction and Processing Division and the Materials Processing and Manufacturing Division of The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society (TMS), will be held at the Hilton San Diego Resort, San Diego, California, September 23-26, 2001.

Materials, metals, and minerals processing technologies are very complex and demand a fine balance of many competing mechanisms. The only really effective way to design, analyze and optimize these processes is through the development and exploitation of computational models. Such models have to reflect all the component physics and chemistry and their interactions--plus the engineering constraints with respect to materials and what can be implemented, etc. Increasingly computational modeling (CM) is the means by which all the factors that effect the operation of a process can be analyzed in a rational manner. Such models also represent the framework within which we can embed much of our understanding of process operations.

The objective of this international conference is to bring together all those who are involved in computational modeling of materials, minerals, and metals processing. Also involved are the engineers involved primarily in specific applications, developers of CM tools, and the developers of models. Their parameterization and validation, and particularly those involved in commissioning such work, so that they may understand where the state of the art is in this rapidly developing enabling technology at the beginning of the new millenium.

The meeting will be a mixture of invited, contributed and poster sessions with a couple of focused round table discussions on where and how CM technology needs to develop over the next decade.

The Computational Modeling of Materials, Minerals & Metals Processing Program will commence at 9:00am on Monday, September 24, 2001. All sessions will be held at the Hilton San Diego Resort.
