Firearms Discharged - An Example of Metals at the Crime Scene Dr. Stephen J. Kershaw, Senior Lecturer in Forensic Analytical Science, MMU

Forensic science is inevitably and unavoidably multi-disciplinary. Many individuals
contribute their expertise to forensic investigations. There are a small number of forensic
metallurgists at least who describe themselves as such. However, metallic objects and
metals are involved in crime and are often the subject of forensic investigations.

Joining technology - meeting the manufacturing challenge

Tuesday 31st March at 6.45 pm
Room D14, Manchester Materials Science Centre
Joining technology - meeting the manufacturing challenge
By Graham Wylde (Associate Director TWI)
Synopsis:
Materials joining is a key enabling technology central to almost every branch of manufacturing. Joining enables raw materials and components to be combined into engineering structures. Materials that cannot be readily joined will have limited use in manufacturing.
The demands of manufacturing are increasing year by year. Consumers want reduced cost, improved performance and products with reduced environmental impact. These requirements place increased demands on joining. Thus joining processes are continually evolving to cope with these increased demands.
This presentation will cover a wide range of joining technologies for metals and plastics, in addition to techniques for dissimilar materials joining.
The lecture will commence at 6.45 pm in Room D14 of the Manchester Materials Science Centre, the University of Manchester, Grosvenor Street, Manchester, M1 7HS
Free refreshments will be provided in the MMSC Common room.
