The conference objective was to bring together researchers, engineers and scientist to present and discuss the state of the art in the computer simulation of electrochemical processes and its application in the areas of corrosion, corrosion related fracture and fatigue and coating and deposition processes. 

We have shown that strength and stability can be obtained under selected conditions in nanostructured and dispersion reinforced systems. However, for structural applications, a balance of properties is critical - fracture and fatigue behavior of these systems are not well-established. Processing scale-up is another big challenge in these systems most of the properties have been demonstrated on laboratory-scale materials. Process scale-up is required to produce useful quantities of materials for sub-scale component demonstration as well as design property evaluation. The retention of useful microstructures, microstructural homogeneity as well as critical material properties has to be demonstrated in scaled-up materials. While our focus has been on structural applications, there may be other non-structural or functional applications for these systems. Future investigations will be focused on such opportunities.

While lab tests often employ simple uniaxial loads, rubber components in service commonly experience states that combine loads from multiple directions. Such loads are said to be multiaxial. Fracture and fatigue processes occurring under such loads are governed by the same general principles as for uniaxial loads, but additional consideration must be made to account for the way in which local effects on crack precursors depend on orientation. 

The rapid advance of computing technology over the past few decades has opened new paths to the numerical simulation of rubber s fracture and fatigue behavior.
