Company Name: Australian Composite Structures Society
Company Type: Engineering design
Company Profile
The objectives of the Society are to guide and foster the acquisition and exchange of knowledge in all matters pertaining to composite structures, and in particular :
· to act as a learned society embracing all aspects of engineering theory and practice, relevant to the structural application of composite materials in Australia;
· to promote the wider structural application of composite materials in the interests of Australian economic development;
· to inform its members of local and overseas activities of scientific and engineering significance in the field of composite structures;
· to provide opportunities for intellectual and fraternal exchange for Society members with a common interest in the development of composite structures and associated technologies;
· to liaise with other scientific and engineering bodies with similar aims, and in particular to represent Australia on international organisations, such as the International Committee for Composite Materials.
About Company
The use of fibre composites structures has become an increasingly important factor in engineering design. Composites of high performance fibres and a range of polymeric, metallic or ceramic matrix materials have enabled many engineering achievements. Advanced fibre reinforced plastics in particular, have been extensively used in the aerospace industry for structural components in both military and commercial aircraft.
Composite structures are becoming increasingly more significant in a number of engineering fields. Many high performance yachts and small naval vessels are fabricated from composite materials and more uses are progressively being developed in general engineering. Significant developments have been achieved in the materials and fabrication technologies for a range of structural components. The potential for wider application of composites has been enhanced in recent years through many innovations in the fibre pre-forms, matrix materials and manufacturing processes.
Australia has a developing composites industry which is supported by commercial, government and university research organisations, as well through international collaboration. In order to facilitate discussion of ideas and developments in composite materials, the Australian Composite Structures Society, a technical society within The Institution of Engineers, Australia, was founded in December 1992.
