Functional Materials
The conference REPM 2016 was chaired by Prof. Oliver Gutfleisch, Technical University of Darmstadt and Fraunhofer IWKS, and Dr. Matthias Katter, Vacuumschmelze GmbH. The workshop has a long history, ever since Karl J. Strnat initiated the series of meetings almost 40 years ago. The aims of the workshop are to bring together scientists and engineers working on rare-earth permanent magnets and their applications and to facilitate exchange of recent results and ideas on topics such as raw materials, resources, and processing and properties of rare-earth and future permanent magnets.
