The International Symposium on Offshore and Arctic Materials Technology of the OMAE Conference continues to serve as a major forum for researchers, engineers, steel makers, and fabricators to share recent advances, discuss problems, and identify challenges associated with materials application in the offshore industry. This symposium is organized annually because of the OMAE Materials Science Committee's recognition of the important role that materials technology plays in ensuring the economic development and safe operation of the offshore and arctic industry. This Volume features 91 technical papers presented at the 1990 OMAE Materials symposium. These papers have been reviewed by recognized specialists and revised prior to acceptance for publication. The papers discuss recent advances in several areas that are important for offshore and arctic development and operation. These areas include advanced composites, elastomers, concrete, high strength steels, fracture control, fatigue, welding technology, underwater welding, inspection, materials properties, tubular joints, and threaded joints. More papers on pipeline materials can be found in Volume V. The application of advanced composites in the offshore industry is attracting a lot of interest by operators and promises tremendous economic potential for offshore development and maintenance. The papers on composites review both the offshore application and the properties of composites. The section on concrete technology addresses important design issues and materials data for the application of concrete in both arctic and offshore structures.
