Aim - Topics

The third Japanese-Mediterranean Joint Workshop on Advanced Materials and Applications is continuing and extending the successful two previous Japanese-Greek Joint Workshops held in Athens (Greece, 1999) and Oita (Japan, 2001) respectively. It will be followed by the 3rd Workshop on Superconducting Flywheels and will provide a forum for specialists from Universities, Research Centers and Industry of the countries involved to establish cooperation. The aim of the conference is to create a link for the participants to share knowledge and experience and for the cross-fertilization of new ideas and developments in applied electromagnetics, design, analysis, new material utilization, and optimization techniques focussing on applications related to superconducting flywheels. Topics related to practical applications, operations, maintenance are also highly encouraged.

The scope of the workshop includes: Advances in Analysis, Manufacturing and Measurements of advanced materials, as well as advances on Superconducting Flywheel Technology. The topics are related to new developments in the following:

  • Computational Electromagnetics
  • Magnetic material characterization
  • Nanotechnology
  • Losses analysis
  • Magnetic Material Processing
  • Design
  • Applications and Devices (Magnetic circuits, Transformers, Electrical Machines, micro-machines)

 

  • Superconducting Flywheels
  • Perspectives of High –Tc supercoductors
  • Modelling of superconductive properties
  • Characterization techniques
  • Processing of bulk superconductors
  • Processing of thin film superconductors
  • Special measurement techniques
  • Applications in electricity/electronics and transportation (Levitation, electrical/ magnetic machines, HTS/metal junctions, shielding, squids)
