AWS Welding in Aircraft and Aerospace Conference to Showcase Latest Research and Technology in Aviation and Aeronautic Welding; Major Themes Focus on Innovative Welding Technology, Processes and Applications.MIAMI Miami, cities, United States Miami (mīăm`ē, –ə). 1 City (1990 pop. 358,548), seat of Dade co., SE Fla., on Biscayne Bay at the mouth of the Miami River; inc. 1896. -- The American Welding Society The American Welding Society (AWS) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing the science, technology, and application of welding and allied joining and cutting processes, including brazing, soldering, and thermal spraying. (AWS AWS Amazon Web Services AWS American Welding Society AWS Advanced Warning System AWS Advanced Wireless Services AWS Automatic Weather Station AWS Alien Workshop (skateboard company) AWS Austria Wirtschaftsservice GmbH ), the world's largest organization dedicated to advancing the science, technology and application of welding, will be showcasing the latest research and practical applications of welding in the aircraft and aerospace industry at the AWS Welding in Aircraft and Aerospace Conference taking place in Dayton, Ohio Dayton is a city in southwestern Ohio, United States. It is the county seat and largest city of Montgomery County. As of the 2005 census estimate, the population of Dayton was 158,873. , on September 19, 2006. The two-day conference will feature leading experts from academic institutions and organizations around the world who will discuss the latest developments in aircraft and space technology. Three technologies in particular are leading the way: friction stir welding Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is an exotic solid-state joining process (meaning the metal is not melted during the process) and is used for applications where the original metal characteristics must remain unchanged as far as possible. , the fiber laser, and additive manufacture. Attendees will learn about these emerging welding technologies and other new applications, such as the latest methods for joining aluminum in fuselage and wing structures and new processes in welding engine parts and other high-performance components. Airframe designers, suppliers, researchers, educators, and administrators involved in aircraft procurement and construction will discuss today's hottest issues, developments and trends that are reshaping welding in the aircraft and aerospace industry. "There is no doubt that the importance of welding in the military, commercial and general aircraft and aerospace industries is escalating to new levels," said Robert Irving Robert Irving may refer to:

About AWS The American Welding Society (AWS) was founded in 1919 as a multifaceted, nonprofit organization Nonprofit Organization An association that is given tax-free status. Donations to a non-profit organization are often tax deductible as well. Notes: Examples of non-profit organizations are charities, hospitals and schools. with a mission to advance the science, technology and application of welding and allied joining and cutting processes, including: brazing brazing, method of joining metal parts using nonferrous filler metals with high melting points such as copper, silver, and aluminum alloys. Brazing differs from soldering (see solder) by using a higher temperature; and unlike welding, the parts are not melted. , soldering, and thermal spraying.

It is the county seat of Miami-Dade County. Miami is a gamma world city with an estimated population of 404,048. , AWS is supported by a staff of more than 100 professionals and serves nearly 50,000 members worldwide. AWS is led by a volunteer organization of officers and directors, and is composed of 22 Districts with more than 200 local Sections throughout the US and the world.
