Publisher's Synopsis
This publication introduces the readers to the selection of papers presented at the 7th International Conference on Advanced Composite Materials (ICACM 2024, Tokyo, Japan, August 21-24, 2024) and the 8th International Conference on Building Materials and Materials Engineering (ICBMM 2024, Madrid, Spain, September 10-12, 2024). ICACM 2024 once again brought together the brightest minds in the realm of advanced composites. These materials, with their exceptional properties and endless potential, are driving innovation across multiple industries. From aerospace to automotive, from energy to electronics, advanced composites are playing a crucial role in shaping the future. The articles presented at this conference offer insights into the latest research, development, and applications of these remarkable materials, highlighting the continuous efforts to enhance their performance, durability, and functionality. In its turn, ICBMM 2024 explored topics ranging from the development of new building materials to the optimization of construction processes, from energy-efficiency to smart building solutions. Construction materials are developing towards the pursuit of functional diversity, circular economy, reuse and recycling, which are essential for sustainable development. The articles from this conference provide valuable knowledge and practical solutions for addressing the challenges faced by the construction industry and promoting greener, more efficient building practices.
