DGLR e.V. - CEAS 2007

Deutscher Luft- und Raumfahrtkongress 2007

First CEAS European Air and Space Conference
Century Perspectives

10-13 September 2007 in Berlin, Germany

General

The Council of the European Aerospace Societies (CEAS) comprises the eight aerospace societies from France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, The Netherlands, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland with more than 25.000 individual members. Each society represents the leading national society in the field of aeronautics and astronautics. CEAS is a non profit organisation based in Brussels, Belgium. The objective of CEAS is to promote the interests of the constituent societies on a European scale and European aerospace activities internationally.

The 1st International CEAS European Air and Space Conference addresses all disciplines of aeronautics and astronautics systems, including their design, development and operation. It covers all scientific, industrial, educational, legal as well as historical aspects relevant to Aerospace. A major goal is to generate synergies between aviation and space related technologies and experiences, as well as products.

Scope

As the CEAS mission is to strengthen the European industrial alliances and working relationships the biannual European Air & Space Conference has been established to provide a forum for presentation and discussion of all scientific and technical areas related to aeronautics and astronautics. The conference organisation rotates between the eight member societies. The 1st CEAS European Air & Space Congress is organized by the DGLR (German Society for Aeronautics and Astronautics) in conjunction with its annual national conference: Deutscher Luft– und Raumfahrt Kongress 2007. In addition and only for this special occasion the biannual Conference on Spacecraft Structures, Materials and Mechanical Testing will be embedded in CEAS 2007.

As we continue into 21st century, the aeronautical and space technologies will significantly contribute to evolution and growth within an evolving and changing global environment. Therefore, the 2007 Congress in Berlin will have the theme

CENTURY PERSPECTIVES

The focus of the presentations shall be on the following five goals for the Congress:

Access to space and future space utilization,
Innovative concepts for future air transport,
Environment and technologies for environmental aspects in aeronautics and space,
International cooperation among academia, research and industry,
Education and training for aeronautics and space; attracting young engineers.

Conference Language will be English, but papers and presentation in German are also welcome

Berlin

Berlin, the capital of Germany, is dynamic, cosmopolitan and creative, allowing for every kind of lifestyle. East meets West
in the metropolis in the heart of a changing Europe. Germany's largest city is a city of opportunities waiting to be seized
in all areas, like entertainment, recreation, economy, science and academic life, as well as in politics.

Venue: Estrel Hotel

The Estrel Berlin is said to be Europe’s largest convention, entertainment and hotel complex. With 1,125 rooms and suites, five restaurants, two bars, a beer garden, the Estrel has plenty to offer to every guest. Beside thr Estrel Hotel accommodation will be available in various prize categories.

CEAS Council of European Aerospace Societies

In the mid 1980s Europe´s main professional aerospace societies recognized the increasingly international nature of aerospace business. These considerations resulted in forming the Confederation of European Aerospace Societies (CEAS) during the 1992 Farnborough Airshow. Today, CEAS comprises of eight societies with more than 25.000 individual members:

AAAF Association Aéronautique et Astronautique de France,
AIAE Asociación de Ingenieros Aeronáuticos de España,
AIDAA Associazione Italiana di Aeronautica e Astronautica,
DGLR Deutsche Gesellschaft für Luft- und Raumfahrt - Lilienthal- Oberth e. V.,
FTF Flygtekniska Föreningen. Svensk förening för flygteknik och rymdteknik,
NVvL Nederlandse Vereniging voor Luchtvaarttechniek,
RAeS Royal Aeronautical Society,
SWFV Schweizerische Vereinigung für Flugwissenschaften.

Each society represents the leading national society in the field of aeronautics and astronautics.

DGLR

is the local organiser of the conference, and is the second oldest scientific-technical Aerospace Society worldwide. The
Society works on a non-profit basis, and currently has approx. 3.000 members from the international aerospace community. The various aerospace disciplines are being addressed in over 40 technical and scientific committees. The DGLR cooperates with international organizations like IAF, ICAS, ISOABE, AIAA, and is one of the foundation members of CEAS. Amongst the numerous national and international symposia and conferences on aerospace matters organized by the DGLR, the Deutscher Luft und Raumfahrt Kongress is certainly the national annual highlight within the professional community. The last event comprised of more than 200 papers and attracted over 500 participants. It forms a good base for the first CEAS European Air and Space Conference.
