Dear Sir,

 

The Indian Indian Institute of Welding (IIW), Chennai Branch, is organising a two day COURSE ON METALLURGICAL ASPECTS RELATED TO WELDING (MARWEL-08) during 25 and 26 September, 2008, at Hotel Radha Park Inn, 171, Jawaharlal Nehru Salai, Chennai - 600106. This course is specifically designed for practicing welding engineers, technocrats and managers; designers; inspection and quality control engineers; fabrication engineers, research scholars, and academicians involved in teaching welding; but did not have any formal training in metallurgy. I am enclosing a brochure for your perusal.

 

Welding plays a key role in every manufacturing process in a wide range of industries Any welding engineer involved in design, fabrication or inspection of components for petrochemical, power, nuclear, and other industries would agree that a proper understanding of welding metallurgy is very important at all stages of fabrication for the successful execution of the job. Unfortunately, most of the welding or design engineers do not receive formal metallurgical education during their graduation. The knowledge gained from experience is often insufficient to make appropriate decision. It is not uncommon that wrong decisions taken without proper understanding of the welding metallurgy results in significant losses, delays or cost overrun both in execution of projects and during the operation of plant and equipments.

 

The subject content of MARWEL 2008 has been drawn up to address the above issues. Eminent speakers from the industries and research institutions will deliver lectures on 14 topics which include

 

v     Physical metallurgy principles relevant to welding

v     Welding metallurgy of different steels, cast iron, austenitic stainless steel, duplex stainless steel and Ni base alloys

v     Welding metallurgy of Al and Ti alloys

v     Metallurgical aspects of choosing welding consumables

v     Metallurgy of Dissimilar Material Joining and Surfacing

v     Metallurgy of weld cracking

v     Metallurgical considerations in specification, procurement, inspection

v     Metallurgy in codes and standards

v     The science and technology of heat treatment

v     Mechanical Testing of welded joints

v     Corrosion of welded joints

v     Fracture Mechanics and Fitness for purpose

v     Metallurgical considerations in Non-destructive testing evaluation

 

I am writing this letter to request you to nominate delegates from your organisation in large numbers to MARWEL 2008. I am sure the delegates would benefit immensely by attending NECOR 2008. I also invite you to advertise in the Proceedings of MARWEL 2008 and/or be a sponsor of the Workshop.

 

I also request you to give wide publicity to this Workshop amongst your contacts.

 

Thanking you and with warm regards

 

Yours sincerely

 

 

(HASAN SHAIKH)

Chairman

The IIW, Chennai Branch
