Introduction to session on materials and structures
A review was given of the development of composites for aircraft. Supporting base technology and the Aircraft Energy Efficiency Composites Program are included. Specific topics discussed include: (1) environmental effects on materials; (2) material quality and chemical characterization; (3) design and analysis methods; (4) structural durability; (5) impact sensitivity; (6) carbon fiber electrical effects; and (7) composite components
Angular Momentum Evolution of Young Stars: Toward a Synthesis of Observations, Theory, and Modeling
The aim of this AAS Topical Session was to update the community on the
current state of knowledge about the angular momentum evolution of young stars.
For newcomers to the subject, the session was intended to provide an
introduction and general overview and to highlight emerging issues. For
experienced workers in this field, the session provided an opportunity for
synthesizing recent developments in observations, theory, and modeling of
rotation of young stars and for identifying promising new research directions.Comment: 10 pages, conference summary, to appear in April PAS
