Stålforskningsdagarna 2011 — Steel research days

I’m respon­si­ble for arrang­ing “Stål­forskn­ings­da­garna 2011″ (“Steel research days”), a two-day research con­fer­ence arranged on Mars 30–31 in Bor­länge by the depart­ment of mate­ri­als sci­ence at Dalarna Uni­ver­sity. The con­fer­ence is a regional research sym­po­sium where all speak­ers, in some way, are linked to our department.

We are pub­lish­ing the con­fer­ence pro­ceed­ings in the form of a printed book for which I’m the edi­tor. It will con­tain 15 research arti­cles (all in Swedish) as well as an intro­duc­tory chap­ter describ­ing our lab­o­ra­to­ries and edu­ca­tional resources.

The pro­gramme can be found on the con­fer­ence web site, where you also find the online reg­is­tra­tion form. If you’re inter­ested in steel research and speak Swedish, con­sider going there. It’s a good oppor­tu­nity to learn about our advances in steel research and meet research engi­neers and man­agers from the local Swedish steel industry.
