Scope:

Smart materials are the functional composite and/or material systems imitating the “dynamics” of creature, eg., mechanical response by electronic and/or magnetic stimulations, sensing to mechanical stimulation, and self-healing. Thus, the components made of smart materials can give rise to novel innovation to robot, vehicle, energy plant, and infrastructures. Furthermore, smart material devices are anticipated to play important roles for IoT systems, because these can generate the electrical and/or magnetic energy from mechanical stimulate, operate the wireless sensor without energy supply.
The present symposium, “Smart Materials Innovations”, wants the various latest research results of the concerned field, new concept of smart materials, novel properties of the materials, advanced process of smart materials, and advanced devises or application using smart materials. Based on these presentations, the next technical trend for smart materials and devices will be discussed with all attendee.

Topics:

1. Multi-functinal Materials/ Devices
2. New Sensor/ Actuator
3. Self-healing Materials
4. Energy Harvesting
5. Bio-Medical Devices
6. Health Monitoring Devices
