During Intermetallics 2021, which took place from October 4-8, 2021 at the Banz Monastery, Bad Staffelstein, Germany, as an international hybrid conference, Reinhold Wartbichler, Chair of Physical Metallurgy and Metallic Materials, was awarded the "Best Poster Award". The awarded work deals with the elucidation of the microstructure evolution of an intermetallic titanium aluminide alloy during additive manufacturing by electron beam melting. The investigations were carried out as part of the EU project NEWTEAM, in which Italian research institutes and the company Avio Aero are partners.
