Bulk metallic glasses (bulk amorphous alloys) constitute a new and exciting class of metallic materials with interesting properties for structural and functional use. For the past decade, substantial advances have been achieved in understanding the glass forming ability and synthesizing new bulk amorphous alloys containing multi-components.

The objective of this conference is to provide an international forum to discuss recent progress in both fundamentals and applications of bulk metallic glasses. Papers describing atomic structure, material synthesis, glass-forming ability, and physical, chemical, thermal, magnetic, mechanical, and functional properties, from both theoretical and experimental viewpoints, are solicited.

The 7th International Conference on Bulk Metallic Glasses (BMG VII) is a continuation of the previous six, which were held in Singapore (September 2000), Taiwan (March 2002), Beijing (October 2003), Knoxville
(May 2005), Hyogo (October 2006) and Xi'an (May 2008), respectively.

Technical topics include but not limited to: 
 - Atomic structure and modeling 
 - Theory and model simulation 
 - Novel techniques to characterize metallic glasses 
 - Material synthesis  
 - Glass-forming ability and phase stability 
 - Composites and nanocrystalline materials based on bulk amorphous alloys  
 - Deformation and fracture mechanisms 
 - Mechanical properties at cryogenic, ambient, and elevated temperatures 
 - Magnetic and electric properties 
 - Thermal, chemical, and physical properties 
 - Design of new bulk metallic glass compositions with enhanced properties 
 - Manufacturing techniques and aerospace and commercial applications
