Call for Papers

The International Symposium on
Joining Technologies in Advanced
Automobile Assembly

In the automobile industries, it is required to make light the weight of car body and machine parts for improving the fuel & energy consumption. Therefore, the Symposium on Joining Technologies in Advanced Automobile Assembly (JAAA) was firstly held in 2002, organized by the committee of joining and materials processing for light structures. The second symposium was held in 2005 as the international symposium, and then the third international symposium (JAAA2018) is held aiming at further development of this research field. You are invited to submit technical papers for presentation at this symposium. The following themes relating to light-weight of cars including materials, joining technologies, qualification of joints, process control technologies and so on are taken up in this symposium, but are not limited to:

Organized by

Committee of Joining and Materials Processing for Light Structures, Japan Welding Society
