The papers contained herein were presented at the Third
International Conference on Composite Structures (ICCS/3) held at
Paisley College of Technology, Paisley, Scotland, in September
1985. The Conference was organised and sponsored by Paisley College
of Technology. It was co sponsored by the Scottish Development
Agency, the National Engineering Laboratory, the USAF European
Office of Aerospace Research and Development, and the US Army
Research, Development and Standard isation Group-UK. It forms a
natural and ongoing progression from the highly successful First
and Second International Conferences on Composite Structures
(ICCS/l and ICCS/2) held at Paisley in 1981 and 1983, respectively.
To label composites as rather specialised, sophisticated, space-age
structural materials would be to underestimate greatly their wider
industrial potential. It is unquestionably true that they will play
an increasingly dominant, if not decisive, role in aerospace
engineering. Indeed a future aircraft industry without composites
as the prime structural materials is inconceivable. However, in an
energy-conscious world the high specific weights and stiffnesses of
composites make them an attractive proposition in every sphere of
transportation engineering. This fact is soundly underlined in one
of the Plenary papers contained herein and in one of the sessions
devoted to this subject. I t would also be a considerable mistake
to interpret composites as simply lightweight alternatives to
conventional metallic structural materials.
