The Advanced Structures and Composites Laboratory (ASCL) at Chonbuk National University was established in the spring of 2010 to address research and educational issues related to composite materials. The focus of the research efforts can be broken into broad categories including fundamental behavior, analysis, design, processing, fabrication, and testing of composite materials and structures. In addition, the laboratory supports the teaching of courses in composites, materials, design, and manufacturing. The laboratory also have collaborated with a variety of industry partners and institutes in the field of automotive, shipbuilding, chemical, aerospace and infrastructure, by performing R&D projects.
