The present conference discusses the cost of composite structures, microwave processing of thermoset resin-matrix composites at high pressure, the impact damage-tolerance of helicopter sandwich structures, novel fluorinated polybenzoxazole thermoplastics, low expansion coefficient polyimides containing metal-ion additives, thermoplastic polyimides for supersonic airframes, material properties and laser cutting of composites, fiber-matrix bond tests in composites, and a global/local stress analysis of stitched composites. Also discussed are moldless composite aircraft wing structural design modifications, advances in anhydride epoxy systems, medical applications of advanced composites, metal-joining processes for space fabrication, close-tolerance plastic master molds, the ballistic energy absorption of composites, soft and hard composite armors, resin-transfer molding of 3D composites, toughened cyanate ester resins, and thermoforming of thermoplastics.
