Thermal constraints often define the true performance limits of an engineering design. As systems increase in power density and complexity, heat generation and dissipation must be addressed alongside mechanical requirements - not as an afterthought, but as a core design consideration.This webinar focuses on the practical side of thermal management, connecting fundamental concepts to real engineering decisions. Rather than treating thermal properties in isolation, the session explores how they interact with mechanical performance and long-term reliability.Attendees will gain a working understanding of how different material classes respond to thermal loads and where specific materials offer measurable advantages. From highly conductive metals to engineered composites and advanced ceramics, the discussion highlights how material choice can directly impact performance, durability, and design flexibility across a wide range of applications.In this webinar, attendees will learn:• How to evaluate key thermal properties in the context of real design requirements• Why thermal behavior directly impacts fatigue, stability, and long-term performance• Common sources of heat generation and where designs can fall short• How metals, alloys, composites, and ceramics compare in thermal-critical environments• Where advanced materials can unlock better performance in both thermal and mechanical systems
