Preliminary Program subject to change
08F01 Composites II
OverviewThis session appreciates contributions that interested in practically all areas of composites materials and nanocomposites. The new developments concerning the processing, structure, and properties of advanced composites. This session invites papers addressing the following topics with respect to theoretical, modeling, and/or experimental. Materials of interest include polymeric composites, carbon-carbon composites, environment-friendly composites, smart composites, biologically compatible composites, and nanocomposites. Novel applications and industrial case studies are promoted.
