Programme

The 13th annual ESAFORM conference covers a multitude of disciplines related to material forming.

These materials include metals, polymers, ceramics and composites.
Other materials, for example, biomaterials are also of conference interest.
All traditional and new forming processes are relevant.

 

Mini-Symposia on specific themes are going to be organized as follows:
