Description: The 10th International Scientific Conference on Advances in Mechanical Engineering (ISCAME, November 7-9, 2024, Debrecen, Hungary) was organized by the Department of Mechanical Engineering (Faculty of Engineering, University of Debrecen), the Working Commission of Mechanical Engineering (Specialized Committee in Engineering, Regional Committee in Debrecen, Hungarian Academy of Sciences) and the Scientific Association for Mechanical Engineering. The ISCAME was part of the 10th Mechanical Engineering Days. The main goal of ISCAME is to yearly bring together engineers, scientists, researchers, practitioners from academia and industry to present their original works and share experiences regarding all aspects of mechanical engineering sciences.

Description: The present edition of the International Conference on Semi-Solid Processing of Alloys and Composites (S2P) is the 17^th of a series of conferences on semisolid processing of metals and composites started in 1990 in France. The topics of interest are many: development of innovative materials and composites, microstructural and mechanical characterization, semi-solid material preparation and related technologies, modelling and simulation, industrial applications, interactions between semisolid processing and additive manufacturing. As known, semisolid processing is a foundry process in which the mold is filled with partially solid metal, instead of liquid metal. This allows to avoid a turbulent flow of the liquid metal, leading to lower porosities due to gas entrapment, while ensuring optimum filling of the die, even when thin walls are present. Also, shrinkage porosities are reduced since the alloy is partially solid during the mold filling. These features, typical only of semisolid processing, are gaining new interest, for instance, for the production of heat sinks with complex geometries and thin walls as the one used in electric vehicles. In addition, mechanical properties are improved, as well as the corrosion and wear resistance, due to the peculiar globular microstructure, resulting in the possibility to manufacture high-performance structural components. At the same time, the metal fills the die at a lower temperature than in conventional foundry process, resulting in a prolonged lifetime of the die. Last but not least, the surface finish of these castings is extremely good. The conference has been organized by the Italian Association of Metallurgy (AIM) and the University of Brescia (Italy).

Attention is focused here on the materials group known as “smart” e.g. Shape Memory Alloys (SMA) and piezoelectrics. The Department of Process Control at the University of Science and Technology carries out leading research in the general area of control engineering. Within this field, scientists from the department also work on the implementation of control theory in materials processing; especially with regard to influencing material properties and optimizing manufacturing processes. Instead of exploiting the principles of control theory for materials use, some researchers use materials-related phenomena for control purposes. The present work offers an informative introduction to this interesting field.

The aim of this special collection was to provide an opportunity for companies, academic institutions and government research agencies to share, in a collaborative manner, their new research and development work.The main focus was light metals and their applications.
It is to be noted that there was a significant number of papers related to titanium research: due to the extended range of applications of titanium components and the growth in end-user demands for affordable manufacturing. As a result, the collection is truly representative of the three light metals: aluminium, magnesium and titanium; with a similar number of papers concerning each metal.
