Inception and Leadership:

  • The International Conference Series on Processing and Fabrication of Advanced Materials (PFAM) commenced in 1991 under the guidance of Prof. T.S. Srivatsan from Akron University, USA.
  • Prof. T.S. Srivatsan has been instrumental in organizing 29 successful International Conferences on Processing and Fabrication of Advanced Materials across 10 countries.
Global Reach:
  • The conferences have served as a global platform, bringing together engineers, technologists, and researchers from diverse backgrounds, including industry, universities, and national/government laboratories.
  • Participants focus on various aspects related to processing, materials, fabrication, characterization, and evaluation of traditional, advanced, and emerging materials.
Research Exploration:
  • The conferences provide a forum for attendees to present and discuss their research findings, observations, inferences, and potential applications.
  • The spectrum of materials covered spans traditional, advanced, and emerging materials, addressing both performance-critical and non-performance-critical domains.
Evolution and Adaptation:
  • In response to the evolving landscape and current developments, the conference series has adapted its focus.
  • Reflecting these changes, the series is now incorporating manufacturing products into its theme and has adopted a new name - Processing of Materials and Fabrication of Products (PMFP) starting from December 2023.
Broad Scope:
  • The expanded theme includes discussions on manufacturing products alongside the traditional focus on processing, fabrication, and materials.
  • The aim is to encompass a wide spectrum of products, catering to both performance-critical and non-performance-critical domains.
Collaborative Exchange:
  • PMFP continues to facilitate collaboration and exchange of ideas among professionals and researchers across the globe.
  • The conference series remains an essential platform for staying abreast of advancements in the processing and fabrication of materials and products.
