P r e f a c e

The Japan Society for Composite Materials (JSCM) is pleased to hold the US-Japan Conference on Composite Materials (US-Japan 2008) to be held from June 6 (Friday) to 7(Saturday) in 2008 at Nihon University, Tokyo. The conference is co-sponsored by American Society for Composites （ASC）. The financial support is provided by Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR), Asian Office of Aerospace Research and Development (AOARD). We wish to thank AFOSR/AOARD for their contribution to the success of this conference.

The collaboration between US and Japan in composite materials and structures has been

very successful both academically as well as commercially, including recent Boeing-Japan partnership in the 787 development. Following a long tradition of US-Japan Conference, we are now emphasizing the present cutting edge technology topics to promote more lively discussion. The following sessions were organized: Processing, Nanocomposites, High-temperature Composites, Multi-functional Composites, Multi-scale Modeling, Failure, Composite Structures, SHM/NDE, Experimental Characterization, Automotive Application, and ONR (Office of Naval Research) Sessions. We particularly emphasized the participation of students and young researchers in the field of composites.

We are very pleased to invite the following plenary speakers for exciting lectures: (1) Composite Application for Japan's New Regional Jet Aircraft – MRJ, Hiromichi Koiwai

(Mitsubishi Aircraft Corporation) (2) Effects of Fiber Surface Texture on Strength and Energy Absorption of Composites, Jack

Gillespie (University of Delaware) (3) Advances in Composite Materials Technology for Commercial Aircraft at Boeing, Al Miller

(Boeing Commercial Aircraft Company) (4) Research and Development of High Temperature Polyimide Matrix Composites in JAXA,

Toshio Ogasawara, Yuichi Ishida, Rikio Yokota, Takashi Ishikawa (JAXA) (5) Rate-dependent Constitutive Equations for Large Deformation of Structural Composites,

Kenneth Reifsnider and Liqun Xin (University of South Carolina)

We would like to appreciate all the members of US-Japan 2008 Organizing Committee for their continuing efforts to US-Japan 2008. Special appreciation is extended to Ms. Takiko Hirano, US-Japan 2008 Secretary-in-Chief, for her numerous contributions to the success of the conference. June 6, 2008
