Materials covered in these presentations encompass a wide range from traditional ones like Al alloys, Ti alloys and steels to new classes of materials like superalloys, aluminides, metal foams, nuclear fuels, carbon nano tubes and composites. Processing operations dealt with range from electro-slag refining, powder metallurgy processing and welding to bio-processing, cold spraying, laser processing, nano-coating, non-equilibrium processing and even processing in Space. Papers on modelling and statistical analysis eloquently bring out the importance of these aspects of research. The paper by an expert from the celebrated British Museum on a detailed scientific analysis of the popular Indian art form of Bidri as also the paper dealing with the results of outstanding original research on the enigmatic Delhi iron Pillar help to highlight the proud Indian metallurgical heritage. Imperatives in modernising metallurgical education to serve the emerging requirements of the industry have been brought out by a highly respected veteran of the Indian steel industry.
