International Conference on Structural Analysis of Advanced Materials

ICSAAM 2009

International Conference on Structural Analysis of Advanced Materials

September 7-10 2009, Tarbes France

Official Website

SCOPE OF ICSAAM 2009

The increased
use of advanced materials in high performance structures such as power
systems, electronic devices, medical appliances, aircrafts and
vehicles, requires improved reliability, resistance to degradation,
prediction of failure and life time under a wide variety of
thermo-mechanical loading conditions. On the other hand, severe
industrial and working environments impose the development of viable
composites with advanced thermal structural properties that become a
key factor for industrial and technological progress.

The purpose of
the present conference is to provide a forum for engineers,
researchers, specialists from universities and students, scientists and
industrial experts, to present and discuss the current status of modern
technology, experimental techniques, numerical analysis and present
developments in the field of modern advanced materials.

ICSAAM 2009 will
comprise invited lectures by internationally distinguished researchers
from European countries together with keynote lectures, contributed
oral and poster presentations covering all aspects of advanced
materials research and technology.

Language: Official conference language is English.

The
Conference will include plenary lectures, keynote lectures, contributed
lectures and posters within the following non-exclusive topics:
