With the development of computer and artificial intelligence technology, equipment automation is integrating digital and intelligent elements and developing towards the next generation.
This workshop aims to bring together the research accomplishments provided by researchers from academia and the industry. The goal is to show up-to-date research results in the field of advanced composites machining, joining and assembly.
