This symposium is focused on advancements in the research, development, analysis, application, and manufacturing of composite, multifunctional, and hybrid materials. The scope includes experimental techniques; materials characterization; manufacturing, assembly, and repair; theoretical and numerical modeling; failure mechanisms and detection; and novel application development for these materials. A primary goal of the symposium is for participants to exchange ideas and promote collaboration to resolve fundamental and application problems.
