The Armor Ceramics Symposium was held January 25-27, 2010 in Daytona Beach , FL as part of the 34 th International Conference & Exposition on Advanced Ceramics and Composites. The 8 th edition of this symposium consisted of over 65 oral and poster presentations on topics such as Impact, Penetration and Material Modeling, Boron Carbide, Silicon Carbide, Dynamic Material Behavior, Transparent Materials and NDE Applications. The symposium continues to foster discussion and collaboration between academic, government and industry personnel from around the globe.

Jeffrey J. Swab is the editor of Advances in Ceramic Armor VI, Volume 31, Issue 5, published by Wiley. Sanjay Mathur is the editor of Advances in Ceramic Armor VI, Volume 31, Issue 5, published by Wiley.
