The International CALPHAD Conference was first held in 1973. Since then, it provides to scientists and students with an interest in thermodynamics of materials an opportunity to meet, present and discuss their work in a friendly atmosphere.

Topics include, but are not limited to:

• Ab-initio (first-principles) Predictions
• Thermodynamic Modeling
• CALPHAD Assessments and Database Development
• Modeling of Diffusion and Phase Transformations
• Software Development
• Experimental Phase Equilibria, Thermodynamics and Kinetics
• CALPHAD Applications in Materials Design, Production, Use, Recycling, Disposal
• CALPHAD Applications in industrial processes (energy production, joining and soldering)
• CALPHAD Applications in Chemistry, Physics, Geology, Biology

According to our tradition, there will be single oral sessions, permanent poster presentations, software demonstrations, time for spontaneous discussions and social activities.
