ICONREM 2024
The devastating effects of recent natural hazards and disasters such as hurricanes, earthquakes, tsunamis, etc., on one hand, and the fragile status of infrastructure systems, on the other hand, have underscored that a great deal remains to be done.
This Conference is intended to raise awareness about this important topic and to suggest strategies that can foster new paradigms in the interface of critical infrastructures and the economic and social impact of resilience.
The increasing necessity to solve complex problems in Resilience, Earthquake Engineering and structural health monitoring requires the development of new ideas and innovative methods for providing accurate numerical solutions in affordable computing times.
ICONREM will offer a stimulating environment to share scientific knowledge and experience with colleagues from all over the world.
Conference sessions will be held in Turin at the Politecnico di Torino with its modern meeting facilities and, on its last day, at the Joint Research Centre in Ispra, the third biggest European Commission site after Brussels and Luxembourg, located on the Lake Maggiore, about 130 km from Turin.
ICONREM will also be a great occasion to visit Torino and its region Piedmont, one of the most fascinating Italian tourist destinations.

Lessons from Germany's Building Industry for New Zealand Retrofitting
Embracing Sustainable Construction Practices. Hosted by German-New Zealand Chamber of Commerce and the EcoVolution Alliance
Join us for a full-day event where we not only delve into the principles of energy-efficient retrofitting, but also present specific solutions from Germany's building industry.
This day aims to showcase real-world applications and solutions in a systematic manner, rather than merely discussing individual products. Rest assured, this won’t be a product sales pitch. We will have an expert speaker from Germany, demonstrations of small-scale example walls, as well as the EcoVolution Alliance team available for networking and discussions throughout the day.
To ensure it's as tangible as possible for you and your business, we invite you to submit your plans for retrofitting houses and apartment blocks beforehand*. This will allow us to tailor examples to your needs, which we can then present during the event.
This won’t be your typical conference day. It’s a dynamic mix of speeches, showcasing the actual installation process, design considerations using WUFI programming, and much more. The day is structured into different modules, allowing you to choose the topics that interest you the most. If installation isn’t your focus, you can explore the design of the plans instead.
Challenge our team with your toughest questions as we guide you through different stages and demonstrate how various products work together seamlessly. Don't miss this opportunity to engage directly with experts and explore sustainable construction practices firsthand.

11th International Conference on Behaviour of Steel Structures in Seismic Areas (STESSA 2024)
The STESSA Conference Staff is very pleased to announce that the eleventh edition of the STESSA Conference is now under preparation. This Specialty Conference is the only world conference specifically devoted to the behaviour, design, assessment, testing and applications of seismic-resistant steel structures. It will collect worldwide researchers, academics and engineers, for discussing the latest developments in the field of steel structures in seismic areas. The Conference cyclically cover the major earthquake-prone areas in the World (say Southern Europe, Pacific Asia, the American continent and Oceania).
During the last Conference Staff Meeting in Timisoara, it was decided to plan the next STESSA Conference in 2024, thus recovering the loss of one year due to the Covid-19 pandemic situation and select Salerno (Italy) as the next venue for STESSA 2024.
Despite the pandemic situation, the last Conference in Timisoara confirmed the interest of the scientific community in such a kind of very specialised formula with a lot of participants, presenting 124 papers collected in the Proceedings Volume.
The unquestionable success of this chain of Conferences makes us confident that, thanks to your participation, also the eleventh edition of STESSA in Salerno will provide a remarkable contribution to the development of our discipline.

International Conference on Noise and Vibration Engineering (ISMA2024)
The 2024 Leuven Conference on Noise and Vibration Engineering will be held September 9-11. It is the 31st international conference in a series of annual courses and biennial conferences on structural dynamics, modal testing and noise and vibration engineering, organised by the KU Leuven Department of Mechanical Engineering. In good tradition, ISMA2024 will join forces again with the International Conference on Uncertainty in Structural Dynamics - USD2024, which will be at its 10th edition. A single registration will grant online access to both conferences.
The conference provides a forum for engineers, researchers, and other professionals active in the field of modelling, analysing, testing and improving the noise and vibration characteristics of mechanical and mechatronic systems and civil structures. A strong emphasis is on combining excellent academic research activities with top-notch industrial innovations and applications. The conference combines expertise in the ‘noise’ and ‘vibration’ fields by stressing common measurement, modelling, analysis and control technologies and leveraging upon new paradigms such as digital twin, model-based system engineering and artificial intelligence. The meeting will provide a further impetus to the cross-fertilization of ideas in both areas.
The conference program will include keynote lectures, tutorials and invited and contributed papers in specialised areas of noise and vibration engineering and structural dynamics. The focus of the conference is on experimental and numerical methods, with special attention to recent applications in vehicle, machine and civil engineering. Fields with a strong interaction between noise and vibration behaviour will be stressed. Modal analysis and structural dynamic testing remain one of the backbones of the conference, and herein we would like to emphasise limiting factors such as product and test uncertainty as well as applications in the field of smart monitoring and damage assessment. The continuous link between real assets and their digital counterparts is also exploited in the digital twin, enabling noise and vibration research innovations and industrial applications.
