AIAA ICME Symposium Series

Symposium Title:

Integrated Computational Materials Engineering (ICME)

AIAA SciTech 2016, home of the

57th AIAA/ASME/ASCE/AHS/ASC Structures, Structural Dynamics, and Materials Conference

January 4-8, 2016

Manchester Grand Hyatt

San Diego, California

The AIAA (American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics) Materials, Structures, Multidisciplinary Design Optimization (MDO) and Non Deterministic Approaches (NDA) Technical Committees are very pleased to announce a symposium to be presented in a coordinated series of special sessions and training events on Integrated Computational Materials Engineering within the AIAA SciTech 2016 conference. ICME initiatives focus on the integration of materials information, captured in computational tools, with engineering product performance analysis and manufacturing process simulation for optimization (references: NAP 2008, NSTC 2011). The coordinated efforts of ICME and the Materials Genome Initiative (MGI) aim to deliver the required infrastructure and training to accelerate innovation, discovery, development, validation and use of advanced materials and manufacturing processes as an integral part of next generation multi-disciplinary design/make with a focus on producing optimum designs. The presentations addressed in this symposium are affiliated and complements the efforts of ASM International (AeroMat & Computational Materials Data Network), TMS, ASME and SciTech short courses/tutorials for ICME.

To this end, the Materials, Structures, MDO and NDA Technical Committees are soliciting papers with recent research, technological advancements, and systems level perspectives that address issues/challenges involved in the integration of ICME into design systems & structures. The end goal of the symposium is to table challenges and solutions for accelerating implementation of ICME capability across industry and academia.

The symposium organizers welcome submissions & participation from government, industry, academia, and small businesses in the following ICME integration events for AIAA SciTech 2016:

·  Panel Session:

o  “Business Benefits of ICME – from a Supply Chain Perspective”

§  Chairs: Steven M. Arnold, John F. Matlik, Michael D. Sangid
