The 7th Pacific Rim International Conference on Advanced Mat

This Conference is the 7th in a series of international conferences devoted to advanced materials and processing. The Conference, which is held every three years, is jointly sponsored by the Chinese Society for Metals (CSM), The Japan Institute of Metals (JIM), The Korean Institute of Metals and Materials (KIM), Materials Australia (MA), and The Minerals, Metals and Materials Society (TMS) and organised in rotation. The purpose of PRICM is to provide an attractive forum for the exchange of scientific and technological information on materials and processing. The first Conference was held in Hanzhou, China, in 1992, followed by the second in Kyongju, Korea, in 1995, the third in Hawaii, USA, in 1998, the fifth in Beijing, China, in 2004, the sixth in Jeju Island, Korea, in 2007. This is the first time for the PRICM to be held in Australia. Cairns is a tropical city in the northern part of Queensland. It is an excellent base for exploring the Great Barrier Reef, the largest coral reef system in the world and one of the seven wonders of the natural world.
