Advanced composites under high strain rates loading: a route to certification-by-analysis

HISTRATE's aim is to establish the scientific and technological foundations for the creation and implementation of a reliable and robust framework for the certification by analysis of advanced composite load-bearing structures subject to high strain rate loading.

The Action is organising its third conference, taking place on 10-11 June 2026 at the University of Latvia in Riga, under their theme ‘Advanced composites under high strain rates loading: a route to certification-by-analysis’.

Conference topics:

• Novel composite materials for high strain rate applications
• Novel simulation methods and best practices for composites under high strain rates
• Multi-modal sensing for impact detection and damage characterization
• Advanced testing and instrumentation for composites under high strain rates
• New standards for composites certification with industrial applications under high strain rates

Deadline for abstract submissions: 10 March 2026, 23:59 CET
