UK Solidification workshop

Brunel University Brunel University, London, United Kingdom

The UK Solidification Workshop 2022 aims to provide a networking platform for the UK solidification community, building on the foundations of a successful series of previous workshops, open-days and academic conferences hosted by the LiME Hub. The specific objectives are: • To bring together people from all parts of the UK metals landscape, including higher education institutions, research organisations, industrial companies, government, funders, learned societies and trade bodies. • To promote collaboration within the community • To map out solidification research across the nation • To discuss the future needs of the sector and new opportunities for reinvigorating metals in the UK.

Transportation Requirements to Move to Net Zero 2050

Royal Academy of Engineering Prince Philip House, London, United Kingdom

We held a series of road mapping workshops to produce a circular economy transport roadmap. The CENTS team will use this roadmap to outline transportation requirements needed to move to Net Zero 2050. Everyone will also work together during the workshop to address various topics such as shared transport and how to bend the linear economy circular.

Sustainable Design and Manufacturing

Croatia Hotel President Starceviceva 1, Split, Croatia (Local Name: Hrvatska)

SDM-2022 will consist of keynote talks, oral presentations, invited sessions and workshops. It will cover the theory and applications of sustainable design and manufacturing, and related areas, whilst providing an excellent platform for the presentation and discussion of new data and concepts, leading to knowledge exchange and the generation of new ideas. The conference proceedings will be published by Springer as book chapters in a volume of the KES Smart Innovation Systems and Technologies series, submitted for indexing in Scopus and Thomson-Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index (CPCI) and the Web of Science.

Materials Research Exchange

Materials Research Exchange (MRE) 2022 will be taking place 3rd – 5th October 2022 and will be delivered as face to face with potential virtual add-on for selected seminars. The event is organised and run by KTN and Innovate UK, taking place at the Business Design Centre in London and will be full of new insights about what materials research and innovations are taking place to help the UK recover, become more resilient and grow.

18th Global Conference on Sustainable Manufacturing

Production Technology Centre Pascalstraße 8-9, Berlin, Germany

The GCSM serves as a global forum for academics, researchers and specialists from universities, research institutes and industry across the globe, working on topics related to sustainable manufacturing. A unique feature of the GCSM conference series is its integration of industrial engineering perspectives, sustainable manufacturing applications in emerging and developing countries as well as education and workforce development for advancing sustainable manufacturing. Sustainable Manufacturing is buzzwords for our annual global conference, since 2003 and now for the third time in 18 years in Berlin. The conference aims to exploit manufacturing engineering potentials for bridging the gap between awareness on sustainability challenges and means to systematically and concretely cope with them.

Deploying AI Solutions in Foundation Industries

Virtual - Zoom

TransFIRe Seminar Deploying AI Solutions in Foundation Industries: Lessons Learned from ‘Furnace AI’ Dr Peter Green, University of Liverpool Tuesday 20 December 9am - 9.45am (30 minutes talk and 15 minutes questions) Zoom (details below description) All are invited to an online TransFIRe seminar on Zoom, aligned with the Glass Technical Working Group. This presentation focuses on the outputs of a recent deployment of an AI-based monitoring system for float glass manufacturing with NSG Pilkington: Furnace AI. We discuss the challenges associated with transitioning AI solutions from academia to industry, with a focus on both technical aspects (e.g. scalability to large datasets, the removal of data that is towards the end of its lifecycle) alongside the ‘softer’ challenges that must also be addressed during deployment (e.g. risk ownership and user trust). Finally, based on the outcomes of the Furnace AI project, potential avenues of future research are suggested.   [...]

Net-Zero, Industrial Decarbonisation, and the ‘Non-Technical’ Dimensions of Transformative Change

University of Edinburgh Chrystal Macmillan Building, Room 2.15

SKAPE is delighted to host Kyle Parker and Steve Yearley (University of Edinburgh). Kyle and Steve will be presenting on “Net-Zero, Industrial Decarbonisation, and the ‘Non-Technical’ Dimensions of Transformative Change”. Abstract: This talk reports on research being conducted within STIS as part of the UK’s TransFIRe Hub – a large investment by UKRI/EPSRC involving over 20 investigators from 12 UK institutions, in addition to Project Partners from more than 70 organisations (including companies, NGOs and government organisations.  TransFIRe is about the meeting point of two huge challenges and transformations confronting UK industry: namely, the impacts of Brexit on international competitiveness, and the drive towards decarbonisation and the UK’s 2050 ‘Net-Zero’ target.  This is of particular importance to the so-called Foundation Industries (FI) – the energy-intensive industries that produce the material from which other products are made (for example, metals, glass and ceramics). Ordinary people are seldom customers for foundation-industry products, but they (we) buy the things made [...]
