History of 123rd Committee

The 123rd Committee on Heat Resisting Materials and Alloys was established in 1957 to promote university-industry cooperation under a program of Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS). The committee is the most authoritative and prestigious in the field of high-temperature metallic materials in Japan, and is actively working with the following four subcommittees:

  1. Heat resisting steels,
  2. Superalloys,
  3. Advanced materials & processing,
  4. Environment-resistant characteristics.

Details are available in the official website.

SCOPE

Following a long tradition and history of the 123rd Committee, the 1st international conference (123HiMAT-2015) on advanced high-temperature materials for power engineering is timely organized in Sapporo, Japan. The conference aims to discuss and exchange views on any topics related to thermal power engineering, with scientists and engineers from all over the world especially from Southeast Asia. Fostering of young researchers and engineers to lead this field in the near future is another important aim of this conference. Another important aim of this conference is to cultivate young researchers and engineers who will lead this field in the near future. Thus, young scientists and active researchers are highly encouraged to participate.
TOPICS
The topics of the conference include
Alloy design
Mechanical properties
Life prediction
Microstructural characterization
Oxidation & corrosion, coatings
Processing and fabrication
in any metallic materials related to power engineering.
PROCEEDINGS
The conference book will be published as the proceedings. Detailed instructions for the authors will be available at the conference website soon.
LANGUAGE
The conference language is English. Simultaneous interpretation is not available.
Poster Exhibition
An exhibition of posters will be run throughout the conference in the exhibition hall adjacent to the lecture halls. Coffee breaks will be held close to the poster exhibition area. Prizes for the best posters will be awarded by the Organizing Committee.
