| Metal alloys are and, in the long-term, will be one of the primary stocks of parts and structures manufacturing. As materials with improved mechanical and chemical properties are continuously developed and appear in applications and production, the methods and procedures of metal processing must be adapted to the new conditions generated by the evolved material qualities to maintain and advance industrial production efficiency and sustainability. Our community’s technical-scientific mission is to follow and identify the trends and needs in developing metal alloys for practical applications and related metal processing methods, equipment and collateral substances in light of technical efficiency (accuracy, productivity), economics (human resources, infrastructure) and sustainability (finances, environmental impact). Focusing on metal processing primarily by mechanical and thermal means, we address the subtractive (cutting by chip removal), forming (casting, forging, sheet forming) and additive (welding, selective laser sintering) metal machining methods. Our community’s social mission is to enhance the self-organisation, self-education, and proactivity of the EELISA-parter HEI’s students from the Bachelor to PhD levels, supported and guided by the academic staff. The students’ deep involvement in cooperative brainstorming, organisation and realisation assists both the students and staff in interconnecting and, later, keeping in touch with graduate students, who proceed in their academic or industrial careers, thereby providing valuable connections and experience for future generations and incubation of potential industrial and scientific collaborations. With the introduction of BME’s decades-long tradition and culture of the Vocational Student Societies (officially recognised presidential groups of students devoted to specific fields of their studies and interests), the foundation of the community’s life is laid primarily on ideas coming from the student societies’ minds, including the practical activities about materials sciences and metal processing in the partner institutes’ workshop and laboratory facilities. |
