Introduction
BHR Group’s involvement with water jets began in 1972, with the first International Symposium on Jet Cutting Technology, held at the University of Warwick in Coventry. Forty years later we’ve reached our 21st International Conference on Water Jetting and having been all around the world we are making our second visit to Ottawa, Canada.
The early conferences were aimed at academia, as would be expected from an emerging technology with new research opportunities. As time has progressed the technology has matured and so the Conference has become a broad mix of academia, operators, and manufacturers, more about the application of water jets, problem solving and technology transfer, not just the theory.
North America has a thriving contingent of Water Jetting contractors and has numerous industrial scale installations. There will be the opportunity to visit industrial installations at aerospace plants in Montreal as well as equipment demonstrations at a site local to the Conference in Ottawa.
Delegates will have the opportunity to learn about new advances and applications of water jet technology from leading users across the globe. It is a good forum for people to display and discuss new technology and new applications. The conference thus has the potential to lead to better and more profitable solutions for UK contractors. There may well also be business opportunities to explore on the world-wide market.
The conference organizers are requesting conference papers on case studies, practical experiences and new developments from users. It is hoped to have feedback from end-users of water jet technology in novel applications both in industry and in the field.
Offers of papers
Authors are invited to submit title and abstract within the scope of the Conference, to reach the Conference Organiser by 29 February 2012. The abstract must be relevant to the scope, and the title should briefly describe the content of the paper.
Selection of papers will take account of originality, relevance and likely interest to delegates. Predominantly theoretical papers are expected to include experimental or other practical validation and/or details of likely application. Papers should be of a technical nature. Where authors wish to support their presentations with commercial material, we recommend that they also take an exhibition stand.
Abstracts should be submitted by email to: confx4@bhrgroup.co.uk
