Plenary lectures NEW
Organizing committee is pleased to announce speakers of plenary lectures! Following special speakers will give plenary lectures in JISSE-19 conference:
| December 2 (Tue) | |
| Ole THOMSEN (Professor & Co-Director, Bristol Composites Institute, University of Bristol) Certification by Analysis of Large Composite Structures — Vision or Delusion? Current practices for qualification and certification of safety critical composite structures are non-optimal and stifles much needed innovation. The current processes follow the well-established building block or testing pyramid approach developed by the aerospace industry 50-60 years ago.It is has been successful in providing a rigorous framework for proving compliance with air-safety regulations, but is time consuming costly and overly conservative, to the detriment of time to market, cost, performance and environmental footprint. The presentation will outline an alternative vision and more efficient methodology for the certification of composite structures, by reducing the reliance on physical testing, and move towards a novel paradigm for certification by analysis. The methodology do not suggest that testing should be abandoned all together, but rather that the required testing can be reduced significantly by changing the focus to integration of multi-scale modelling and data-rich structure scale test devised through Design of Experiments and Bayesian inference. The presentation will discuss key enabling methodologies covering multi-scale modelling, advanced data-rich testing, data fusion and uncertainty quantification through demonstrator cases with special emphasis on data integration. |

| Ignaas VERPOST (Emeritus Professor, Department of Materials Engineering (Composite Materials Group), KU Leuven) The History of Composites: eight breakthrough innovations At the occasion of the JISSE-2025 conference in Tokyo, the book “The History of Composites. People, science, technology and society” will be presented. This ~ 850 pages book, edited by Ignaas Verpoest and published by @Elsevier, introduces the reader to key milestones in the discovery and technological development of composite materials, including their processes and applications. The book has two parts: after a general history of composites, a “bird’s-eye view”, the second part contains 28 shorter contributions from leading international experts, discussing specific topics in detail. For this presentation, eight “breakthrough innovations” have been selected, illustrating how fundamental discoveries have led to the creation of new composite materials, manufacturing processes and innovative products. |

December 4 (Thu) |
| Michael ANDERSON (Technology Strategist, Global Technology, Boeing Research & Technology) Recent Advances in Composites Manufacturing at Boeing Advances in aerospace composites manufacturing, driven by the global commercial aviation market, are transforming design, production, and lifecycle performance. Improved fibers and thermoplastic and thermoset resin systems, combined with developments in automated fiber placement, resin infusion, alternative cures, and innovative forming and joining processes enable lighter, more complex structures with reduced cost at higher rates. AI, digital models, predictive analytics, and model-based systems engineering are accelerating the design, build, and certification cycles. Current projects and applications demonstrate performance gains, weight savings, production scalability, and life cycle improvements. This presentation highlights the commercial market drivers, latest material, process and aviation industry trends, technology readiness, implementation challenges, and pathways for industrial adoption and future research priorities and partnerships. |
