American Society for Composites 41st Annual Technical Conference

Founded in 1985, the American Society for Composites (ASC) serves as a leading forum for advancing knowledge and fostering the exchange of ideas in composite materials and structures. Established to accelerate interdisciplinary research and promote innovative composite technologies across aerospace, automotive, energy, civil, and emerging sectors, ASC has for nearly four decades united a diverse community of students, faculty, researchers, engineers, and practitioners from academia, industry, national laboratories, and federal agencies. As an all-volunteer organization, it continues to promote collaboration, professional development, and the dissemination of cutting-edge research.

ASTM Committee D30 on Composite Materials, established in 1964, oversees 102 standards through its six technical subcommittees, as published in the Annual Book of ASTM Standards. Although founded with a primary focus on aerospace applications, the committee has expanded its scope over time to address the needs of automotive, industrial, recreational, and medical sectors that rely on advanced composite materials.
