25th Materials Engineering Colloquium
17th/18th March 2027



The Institute of Materials Science and Engineering (IWW) of Chemnitz University of Technology cordially invites you to the 25th Materials Engineering Colloquium (WTK). You can expect a two-day program with current research topics from the areas of:

  • Surface engineering
    (thermal coating and treatment, electroplating, anodizing, …)
  • Material development
    (high-entropy alloys, high-strength steels and light metals, ultra-fine-grained materials, shape memory alloys, ...)
  • Joining and manufacturing technology, additive processes
    (soldering, deposition and joint welding, powder metallurgy, metal printing, …)
  • Hydrogen Technologies and Sustainable Propulsion Systems
    (Fuel cell systems, electrolysers, and related components, …)
  • Composites and hybrid materials
    (MMC, PMC, CMC, functionalized materials, …)
  • Material behavior and analytics
    (lightweight construction, material testing, microstructure characterization, fatigue and damage, ...)
  • Knowledge- and data-driven modeling and the application of artificial intelligence
    (Support for complex, multi-criteria decision-making; modeling of process chains; process-related uncertainties)

The conference language is English, but contributions in German are also permitted.
