Brilliant Composites Technologies and Insight Shared At a Very Dynamic JEC Americas 2012
11/21/2012
Boston - JEC's inaugural composites conferences and show for the Americas, held at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center from Nov. 7 to 9, exceeded the composites industry's expectations with an impressive showing of participating companies and expert presenters.
Three hundred and six exhibiting companies (65 percent from North America and 35 percent from Europe and Asia), and 6,698 entries with 4,159 professional visitors from fifty three countries and thirty six states (onsite registration), attended, clearly confirming the interest of the international composites industry in the Americas market. These good results are all the more positive since the show suffered from many last minute attendance cancellations due to the storm that hit New England on the second day.
A success based upon networking and collective energy
JEC Americas aroused great interest with highly technical content, topics and themes tailored to the North American market. The event was heavily supported by composites professionals and companies from the whole composites value chain being drawn to the event by JEC's specialty of bringing strong attention to the interests of composites end-users. Many outstanding companies and start-ups exhibited at JEC's inaugural show. JEC Americas is supported by JEC Board members. Most of them are headquartered or well-established in the Americas; these include Agy, Advanced Glass Yarns, Cytec Umeco, Chomarat, CCP Composites, Duqueine Composites, Hexcel, Huntsman, IDI Composites, Owens Corning, Porcher Industries and Sora.
Support from partner associations
JEC Americas was backed by partner associations, both from the composites industry and end-user associations based in Canada and the United States, as well as Germany, France, Japan, China and India.
Co-located with Industrial Fabric Association International (IFAI), JEC Americas was a success thanks to the mutually beneficial interest from both shows' attendees in the composites industry and the industrial textiles sectors.
Scientific network
Strategic alliances initially built over decades by JEC in Europe and Asia, are extended to America. Prestigious universities enhanced the event, including Stanford University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), South Korea's Hanyang University and Stuttgart & Munich Universities, to name a few.
A dynamic market
According to Ms Frédérique Mutel, JEC's President and Chief Executive Officer, "The North American composites market is in full swing. North America represented US $35 billion in value in 2011. It is the largest market in the world. Largely through the efforts of composites industry pioneers, the region is continuously innovating new composites breakthroughs. JEC has been working in the Americas composites industry for over 50 years and our organization continues to be influenced by U.S. entrepreneurs."
"The Americas embody a strong culture of innovation, with passionate composites professionals striving to develop new breakthrough solutions and create new ways to drive the industry forward," Mutel added. "The North American wind energy market over the last years is one excellent example of a sector that experienced remarkable growth."
Knowledge and Networking
After three days of Composites networking and knowledge sharing, the first JEC Americas Composites show scored high marks with participants and attendees. The consensus among those interviewed for their opinions on the event was that it was highly beneficial to their development in the Americas and worldwide. Interviewees agreed that quality of the information and content provided by JEC Americas to participants and visitors was timely and innovative, representing the entire composites value chain - from raw materials producers to end-user companies.
Innovation
JEC's focus on innovation was at the center of discussions and exchanges during JEC Americas 2012. Brian L. Wardle, associate professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics, and director of the Nano-Engineered Composite Aerospace Consortium at MIT, officially opened the Exhibition with a keynote speech about the Boston region's contributions to Innovation in composites, especially in the realm of nano-materials.
Following Wardle's speech, Gene Lavanchy, a lead anchor for Boston's FOX25 Morning News, welcomed attendees to JEC America's Innovation Awards Ceremony, where awards were presented to nine companies representing tomorrow's breakthrough in nine categories such as Aeronautics, Automotive, Reycling or Carbon for example. A special prize was also awarded to TOYOTA for their Lexus LFA that was displayed on JEC Americas Innovation Showcase over the three days.
Award winners included:
• Hexcel: Aeronautics Category
• Edison2 LLC: Automotive Category
• Chomarat: Carbon Category
• MVC Solucoes em Plasticos: Construction Category
• MPD Designs: Energy Category
• Swift Engineering: Process Category
• Connora Technolgoies: Recycling Category
• CGTECH: Software Category
• Cervelo Cycles: Sports & Leisure Category
100+ presentations and 60 Technical Posters
Held in conjunction with the Exhibition, JEC's latest Innovative Composites Summit (I.C.S.) showcased the insights and expertise of top business and technology leaders from important global composites sectors, including Aeronautics, Automotive, Building & Construction and Wind Energy. The Summit also hosted cross-industry forums on Automation, Bio-Based Composites, Carbon Materials, Thermoplastics and Regulations. All together more than 100 presentations and 60 technical posters were presented on this occasion.
Manufacturing large series
The JEC Americas Exhibition floor also included a Live Demonstration Zone in partnership with RocTool, Tencate and Wabash, which featured a cutting-edge production system designed to help expand manufacturing and use of composite materials with new reinforced thermoplastic technologies and a Live Heat & Cool Process.
Serving as a one stop shopping event for the composites industry, JEC Americas was attended by companies from the entire composites value chain and representing a range of key industry end markets. JEC continues to represent in the Americas a one-of-a-kind opportunity for learning, business development and networking in a region representing the largest worldwide composites market.
The exhibitor rebooking and the attendee demands, only confirm JEC's decision to come back to Boston for JEC Americas 2013 next October 2-4, 2013 and also for JEC Americas 2014, also in Boston in October 28 - 30, 2014.
The Federal's pistol slid into its holster and his sabre flashed out. He threw its curved point up in a splendid salute. Ferry saluted with his straight blade. Then both swords rang back into their scabbards, and Jewett whirled away toward his column. For a moment we lingered, then faced to the left, trotted, galloped. Over the fence and into the road went he--went I. Down it, as we crossed, the blue column was just moving again. Then the woods on the south swallowed us up. "All right, sir." that before. Meanwhile the parallelism between Thought and Extension was not exhausted by the identification just analysed. Extension was not only a series of movements; it still remained an expression for co-existence and adjacency.412 Spinoza, therefore, felt himself obliged to supply Thought with a correspondingly continuous quality. It is here that his chief originality lies, here that he has been most closely followed by the philosophy of our own time. Mind, he declares, is an attribute everywhere accompanying matter, co-extensive and co-infinite with space. Our own animation is the sum or the resultant of an animation clinging to every particle that enters into the composition of our bodies. When our thoughts are affected by an external impulse, to suppose that this impulse proceeds from anything material is a delusion; it is produced by the mind belonging to the body which acts on our body; although in what sense this process is to be understood remains a mystery. Spinoza has clearly explained the doctrine of animal automatism, and shown it to be perfectly conceivable;569 but he has entirely omitted to explain how the parallel influence of one thought (or feeling) on another is to be understood; for although this too is spoken of as a causal relation, it seems to be quite different from the logical concatenation described as the infinite intellect of God; and to suppose that idea follows from idea like movement from movement would amount to a complete materialisation of mind; while our philosopher would certainly have repudiated Mr. Shadworth Hodgson’s theory, that states of consciousness are only connected through their extended substratum, as the segments of a mosaic picture are held together by the underlying surface of masonry. Nor can we admit that Spinoza entertained the theory, now so popular, according to which extension and consciousness are merely different aspects of a single reality. For this would imply that the substance which they manifest had an existence of its own apart from its attributes; whereas Spinoza makes it consist of the attributes, that is to say, identifies it with their totality. We are forced, then, to conclude that the proposition declaring thought and extension to be the same thing570 has no413 other meaning than that they are connected by the double analogy which we have endeavoured to explain. “Oh, he’s welcome to it,” Sandy cried. “I’ve turned over a new leaf!” “But—are they?” He pulled a wire out a trifle from the sheath. The sergeant spent more time upon the oaths with which he embellished the counter-question as to how he should know anything about it, than would have been consumed in a civil explanation. "Doctor, he can't die. He mustn't die," said Shorty in agony. "The regiment can't spare him. He's the best soldier in it, and he's my pardner." AND ENTERS UPON HIS PARENTAL RELATIONS TO LITTLE PETE SKIDMORE. "Holy smoke, look there," gasped Monty Scruggs, as a company of rebel cavalry came tearing over the hill in front, to the assistance of their comrades. "That's about it," answered Shorty disdainfully. "That's the way with all cavalry, dad-burn 'em. They're like a passel o' fice pups. They're all yelp and bark, and howl and showin' o' teeth. They're jest goin' to tear you to pieces. But when you pick up a stone or a club, or git ready to give 'em a good kick they're gone, the devil knows where. They're only an aggravation. You never kin do nothin' with 'em, and they kin do nothin' with you. I never kin understand why God Almighty wasted his time in makin' cavalry of any kind, Yank or rebel. All our own cavalry's good for is to steal whisky and chickens from honest soldiers of the infantry. The infantry's the only thing. It's like the big dog that comes up without any special remarks, and sets his teeth in the other dog. The thing only ends when one dog or the other is badly whipped and somethin's bin accomplished." "Mmm." Reuben started out of the half-waking state into which he had fallen. It was late in the afternoon, the sunlight had gone, and a wintry twilight crept up the wall. Maude the dairy-woman was looking in at the door. It was about a month subsequent to this, that one morning, as Turner was making the anvil ring with the ponderous strokes of his hammer, two retainers from the castle entered the shed, and delivered an order from De Boteler for his immediate attendance. Wat laid the hammer on the anvil, and, passing the back of his right hand across his forehead, to clear away the large drops that stood there, looked with a kind of smile at the men as he said, HoME泷泽萝拉四部和集下载
