About Submitting Your Abstract
ABSTRACT DEADLINE: THURSDAY, DECEMBER 31, 2009
CALL FOR PAPERS IS CLOSED.
You are invited to submit an abstract for the Second International Conference on Laser Peening to take place in San Francisco on the 19th - 21st of April, 2010. This year we have a comprehensive agenda with areas dealing with the following topics:
1) Fundamental aspects (Plasma Physics, Warm Dense Matter, Shock Phenomena, Material Dynamics)
2) Numerical simulation of LSP processes (Solid Phase, Hydrodynamics, Plasma)
3) Experimental implementation of processes and characterization techniques
4) Mechanical properties and behavior resulting from LSP conditions
i) LSP effects on residual stresses
ii) LSP effects on wear resistance and other surface properties
iii) LSP effects on fatigue behavior
iv) LSP effects on corrosion
5) Industrial applications of LSP
6) Comparison of LSP (Toshiba, MIC, LSPT, etc.) vs. different competing technologies (Shot Peening, Water Jet Peening, Ultrasonic Shot Peening, etc.)
7) Novel applications of laser peening
8) Challenges of Laser Peening/Laser Shock Processing
All submitted abstracts should enhance the technical discussion of the various initiatives and technology supporting the use of LSP. The general rules for submitting abstracts are listed under the general rules section.
Some papers selected for presentation at the Laser Peening Conference, will be invited to submit their paper for publication in the International Journal of Structural Integrity.
Please make sure you read and understand the rules before submission.
Presentation Requirements for Accepted Abstracts
Each primary submitter for abstracts will be notified by email, no later than Monday, January 18, 2009, of the decision of the Laser Peening Review Committee. Abstract submitters who receive an acceptance letter email will also be provided with speaker log-in information/instructions. This speaker log-in information will guide each presenter through all phases of the presentation requirements for the 2010 Laser Peening Conference. All presenters will be required to upload their presentation prior to the Conference using this speaker log-in page. An exact date for presentation submission will be contained in the speaker log-in information. Presentations with substantial speaker notes or a technical paper (author’s choice), will be required of each presenter for inclusion in the Proceedings to be posted on the Conference website after the Conference.
General Rules for Submitting Abstracts
Please make sure you read and understand the rules before submission.
- Authors should submit abstracts for consideration by completing the Online Abstract Submittal Form, accessible by clicking on the button at the top of this page. The abstract text should be within 200-500 words.
- All submitted abstracts should include a description of content, conclusions and significance of the proposed presentation.
- At the time of abstract submission, authors will be asked to certify that the submitted abstract is unclassified, non-proprietary and approved for public release and unlimited distribution. All accepted abstracts will be posted to the 2010 Laser Peening Conference website.
- Abstracts must be received no later than Thursday, December 31, 2009. Abstract reviewers request that, in order to facilitate technical review, abstracts be submitted as soon as possible. A late submission will not allow time for proper review by the conference planning/review committee and may result in the rejection of the abstract.
- All submitted abstracts will receive an email by Monday, January 18, 2009 notifying them of the acceptance/non-acceptance of the abstract. Only the primary submitting author will be sent this acceptance/non-acceptance email and it will be the author’s responsibility to notify any co-authors.
- The 2010 Laser Peening Conference is unclassified and open attendance. Authors presenting papers will be responsible for obtaining all necessary approvals and releases prior to the Conference.
- Authors presenting papers at the 2010 Laser Peening Conference are REQUIRED to register for the conference and pay the associated conference registration fee.
No Exceptions
