WELCOME TO MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA AND THE 22ND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON COMPOSITE MATERIALS

We are very proud to be organising ICCM22 and we trust you will have an outstanding experience at the conference and during your stay in Melbourne and Australia.

ICCM22 continues the 44 year history of the International Conferences on Composite Materials, which commenced in 1975. This is the second time an ICCM has been held in Australia, with the first conference (ICCM11) held in Queensland in 1997. ICCM22 is proudly brought to you by the Australian Composites Structures Society, which is a professional society of Engineers Australia.

The theme of ICCM22 is ‘Advanced Composites: Research to Impact’ with the overall objective of exploring the latest research into composites and how the materials will be used in the future for applications including aerospace, construction, wind energy and automotive.

The scientific program of ICCM22 contains about 1513 presentations with the authors coming from over 50 countries representing the three ICCM world regions. Delegates from all parts of the composites sector, including universities, research institutions, government agencies, material suppliers, manufacturers and other industry, are attending ICCM22. Such diversity will ensure a vibrant, engaging and multifaceted conference. We are grateful to all authors for their outstanding contributions to the ICCM22 scientific program, which we believe is first rate.

The full ICCM22 program is printed in this book along with helpful information, including the locations of the session rooms in the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre, Exhibition display area, locations for lunch and breaks, and details about the conference sponsors.

The ICCM22 conference proceedings contain the abstract, full paper or PowerPoint slides for presentations. The proceedings also contain the poster for poster presentations. You can easily access the proceedings via the ICCM22 website (www.iccm.com) or the ICCM22 App. This program booklet is also accessible via the website and App.

We hope you greatly enjoy the many events and technical tours planned throughout ICCM22, all of which are described in this program. Conference updates on events and practical matters will be issued throughout the program via electronic notifications through the website and Conference app. Also remember to check the electronic notice boards in front of each session room for last minute, unavoidable changes to the program. If you need any assistance during the conference then please do not hesitate to contact the ICCM22 secretariat or us for help. Assistants will be present in all session rooms.

We sincerely thank Engineers Australia, MCI, the Local Organising Committee and the International Scientific Committee and student volunteers for their outstanding work; without which the conference would not be possible. Once again, welcome to Melbourne Australia and enjoy ICCM22.
