IGWAAS - 2021 will be jointly organized by both Indian and German academic partners, i.e. University of Hyderabad (UoH) and Universität Siegen (USI) respectively, in close collaboration with Indian and German industrial parties, JSW Steel works ltd, Salem (JSW) and Mubea Fahrwerksfedern GmbH, Weissensee (MUB) respectively on 4 – 5 March 2021.

Steel is an important and indispensable structural material in automotive sector. In a continuous effort to make lightweight vehicles without compromising on efficiency, there have been several recent scientific and technological developments in the automotive steels. New grades of high strength steels (HSS) are being adapted while considering lightweight, optimal design, safety missions and efficiency. Therefore there is a need to understand the current trends and state of the art in steel development, fabrication and manufacturing technologies, microstructural development, mechanical properties, design, safety, fuel economy etc. Hence a workshop is planned to discuss these trends in various steel grades that are currently employed in automotive vehicle manufacturing.
