Dr. Zhang Xiaojian and a master student Xie Yakun were invited to attend the International Mechanical Engineering Congress and Exposition 2016(IMECE 2016) hosted by American Society of Mechanical Engineers(ASME) in Phoenix, Arizona, America from November 11th, 2016 to November 17th, 2016. In the conference, a report titled “Improving the Computational Efficiency of Stability Prediction in Milling Employing the Two-Dimensional Bisection Method” was made.
During the conference, they had wide and deep exchanges with other attendees over the latest research about robot machining, metal cutting, intelligent spindle, novel materials and mechanics of materials. Through this meeting, they have broadened the research field of vision to enhance the level of scientific research and teaching.
ASME's IMECE is the largest interdisciplinary mechanical engineering conference in the world. IMECE plays a significant role in stimulating innovation from basic discovery to translational application. It fosters new collaborations that engage stakeholders and partners not only from academia, but also from national laboratories, industry, research settings, and funding bodies. Among 4,000 attendees from over 75 countries are mechanical engineers in advanced manufacturing, aerospace, advanced energy, fluids engineering, heat transfer, design engineering, materials, energy recovery, applied mechanics, power, rail transportation, nanotechnology, bioengineering, internal combustion engines, environmental engineering, and so on.
This attendance was funded by International Cooperation Promotion Plan of School of Mechanical Science and Engineering.
