Global Materials Technology
Moderator: Carl Rousseau - ASTM D30 Committee and Lockheed Martin
Aeronautics
SAMPE Keynote Presentation
Presenter: John Pilla: Senior VP/General Manager,
Propulsion Segment, Spirit AeroSystems
The aviation industry is embarking upon a
historic transformation from all metallic fuselages to light-weight
composite aero-structures. In the decades past there has been a
six-fold increase in air traffic provided by the U.S. aviation system,
while there has been a 60 percent improvement in fuel efficiency.
Concerned with the spiraling fossil fuel consumption and its debilitating
environmental impact, we are focusing on a new paradigm shift
toward the development of disruptive, energy efficient (“green”),
global material technology for effective energy utilization and efficient
manufacturing. These emerging technologies for advanced material
and process are paving way for the future of aviation. Also, in this
era of globalization, we are growing our diverse business portfolio
through open innovations and leveraged collaborations for the costeffective and rapid implementation of these technologies. As the
premier aero-structure producer and system integrator of the aviation
industry, Spirit AeroSystems is actively and strategically engaged in
this Global Material Technology revolution.
9:00 AM • Room 204

The purpose of this combined presentation/panel session will be to
bring together subject-matter-experts in the area of durability, damage
resistance, and damage tolerance of aerospace sandwich structures
and discuss near-term needs for standardized test methods, practices,
and/or guides. Brief presentations will be given on recent sandwich
structure DaDT certification requirements, methods of compliance, and
related field service history and repair. A panel discussion will follow,
which will focus on a strategy for development of sandwich DaDT
standards and a recommended path/plan for development. Notes will
be taken and subsequently distributed, along with presentations, to

Featured Lecture - The Role of Education in
Composites Engineering
Lecturer: Beckry Abdel-Magid: Chair, Composite
Materials Engineering, Winona State University
In the early 1990s, leaders in the composite
materials industry declared that the major
problem with composite materials was neither technical nor economic,
but rather educational, and called for shifting the emphasis in the
academic community from focusing on research and development to
educating and graduating large numbers of engineers with broad
and in-depth knowledge in composite materials.
A number of universities responded by developing strong programs
in composites engineering both at the undergraduate and graduate
levels. In the subsequent two decades, graduates of these programs
were in the forefront of a second revolution not only in new applications
in myriad products and industries, but also in the material and
processing technologies of composite materials. This presentation
will highlight the role of education in taking composite materials from
artisan fabrication and laboratory research to advanced technology
and applications ranging from aerospace, to consumer goods and
nano-scale materials. A review of the current state of education in
composites engineering in the United States and other industrial
nations will also be presented.

SAMPE Keynote Presentation
Materials and Processing & Manufacturing
Technology: A Rich History and Promising Future
Presenter: Persis A. Elwood - Division Chief,
Materials & Manufacturing Directorate, WPAFB
As the world has gotten flatter, the defense industry has gotten
smaller. Globalization and decreased demand have impacted many
industries that supply the Air Force and DoD. There is also increased
competition for critical commodities – energy and specialty metals,
for example. Internal to the Air Force the two communities, materials
and processing and manufacturing technology, have shared a very
productive relationship. The communities share the same customer
base, and the breadth of products and disciplines are the same.
We are different links in the same chain. In order for materials and
processing to deliver to their potential, it is essential that manufacturing
readiness be considered earlier than ever before in the development
cycle. By partnering more effectively we can help ensure scale up and
timely transition of new capabilities.
9:00 AM • Room 206
Panel: Commercializing Composites: The Outlook for HighVolume, Sustainable Material Applications
Moderator: Sara Black - Technical Editor, Gardner Publications, CompositesWorld
The focus of this panel will be successful real-world, non-aerospace
applications of composite materials. While the composites industry
has been challenged by the design and manufacturing demands of
lucrative, high-volume markets, the barriers are starting to break
down — particularly as alternative energy sources, infrastructure
upgrades, and new industrial technologies begin to shape policy
decisions. Panelists will address application areas including wind
energy, offshore oil exploration and production, infrastructure,
pressure vessels for fuel and compressed gas storage, automotive
components and composite design. They will describe how composite
materials, processing and design concepts are being used in specific
market areas, in innovative ways — and how the material or process
or design approach is helping to facilitate composites’ growth, in light
of the current difficult economy.

Moderator: DeWayne Howell, President, Peak Composites Inc.
Every trade has its tools. Carpenters use hammer and saw, painters the
brush and roller, and plumbers the wrench and torch. As engineers in
the field of composites, we also require tools to do our job. In particular,
we rely on our software tools to help us analyze laminates, process
materials, and design structures. It would be quite a benefit if there
were one place you could go to see a variety of these software tools
in action and have a chance to compare them versus your specific
needs. Panelists will present their respective software packages for
you to review and give you the opportunity to get your questions

Offers New Horizons for Composites
Nano and Conductivity/EMI
Session Chair: Nate Hansen, Conductive Composites Company
Lecturer: Adrian Pollock - Principal Scientist,
Mistras Group
9:00 AM
Acoustic emission (AE) is an excellent tool for
detecting damage in composites at the moment it is occurring. AE
testing can also be used to recognize the presence of pre-existing
damage. It can be used to locate the sites where damage is developing
early in the fatigue life of a structure; and near the end of the structure’s
life, it can be used to give a direct warning of incipient failure. As a
nondestructive testing method, AE works even better on composites
than on metals, because composites are more generous in their
emitting properties. Applications include fatigue testing of prototypes
(to prevent premature failure), routine maintenance inspection (of
bucket trucks, for example), and materials characterization.
This presentation will discuss these capabilities, give examples to show
what can be done with AE today, review the technical elements that
must be in place for successful AE testing, and indicate directions for
future growth. The horizons of material technology can indeed be
expanded by the use of this method.

AFOSR Workshop: Multiscale Modeling for Polymer Matrix
Composites
Moderator: Charles Lee, Program Manager, AFOSR and Tia Benson-Tolle,
Air Force Research Laboratory/Materials and Manufacturing Directorate
This panel/workshop is focused on one of the many links in the
multiscale modeling of Fiber Reinforced Composites, specifically
between the molecular scale modeling and the micromechanics scale
modeling. Efforts to directly link these two scales are needed to make a
rudimentary prediction of composite structure behaviors based on the
consituent’s properties. A direct linkage between these two scales will
lead to better prediction of new resin chemistry on the performance
of the composite structures. This linkage can also lead to prediction of
cure cycle effects and chemical aging effects on the properties of the
composite structures.
Panel members are drawn from researchers who are in the
micromechanics and molecular scale modeling areas that are offering
potential possibilities for this linkage.

Session Chair: Jeff Wiggins, University of Southern Mississippi
Polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) are used to impart unique
properties to thermoplastics, thermosets, elastomers and coatings.
POSS technology possesses broad utility for consumer products,
aerospace, biological, pharmaceutical, agricultural, transportation,
and construction industries. In order to be successful in realizing full
potential, one must understand that POSS behaves differently than
conventional additives. We will discuss POSS in an open forum during
this round-table session to review what POSS can deliver in terms of
performance, and to give some insights on how to formulate POSS to
realize the benefits of this exciting nano-technology.
