LightForm Research Showcase 2021
The end of the year is fast approaching and so a summary of the excellent work done this year was presented at the LightForm Research Showcase 2021 which took place online on 18th and 19th November.
The showcase included many interesting talks about the cutting-edge research and was attended by students, academics from other universities, industrial partners, and members of the LightForm International Advisory Board. The showcase was split into three sessions: titanium alloys research, and aluminium alloys research, and computational modelling research, with each session being chaired by LightForm PDRAs.
For those that were unable to attend, we have recorded all presentations and the following discussions. Please see below for the list of talks and links to the videos.
