Columbus, Ohio
Keynote Speaker
Glenn S. Daehn, Ph.D.
Mars G. Fontana Professor of Metallurgical Engineering
Department of Materials Science and Engineering
The Ohio State University
Glenn Daehn’s research, education and service efforts are all broadly related to the interwoven themes of Midwestern manufacturing revival, which in turn depends on technology development, integration of the University mission with regional industry and the development of a world-class workforce that is both smart and creative as well as able to make things.
Disruptive Opportunities in Light Structure Joining and Design
New approaches to design and manufacture can reduce aircraft weight and cost while improving durability. New technologies for solid state joining and component fabrication will be detailed including deployable methods of impact welding, conformal joining and metamorphic manufacturing. The key challenge will be in accepting and qualifying new practices. This is a challenge shared by other emerging technologies such as additive manufacturing.
