Visit of Prof. Yoshinori Yoshida at the IUL

On December 08th and 09th, 2022, Prof. Yoshinori Yoshida from Gifu University in Japan and his two students Mr. Takashi Matsunaga and Mr. Kaito Amakusa were guests at the IUL. Prof. Yoshida is the director and coordinator of the student exchange program "G-CADET". The aim of this program presented at the IUL is to expand the international cooperation in engineering sciences. We are very pleased that, after a break due to Corona, we will be able to welcome Japanese students in Dortmund again next year and that German students will be able to start their journey to Japan. In addition to the lecture by Prof. Yoshida, Mr. Matsunaga gave a lecture entitled "Automatic identification of hot forging parameters; heat transfer coefficient and friction" and Mr. Amakusa presented his research results on "Optimization of process condition for powder bed fusion additive manufacturing".
