CONFERENCE OBJECTIVE

Following the success of the First, Second and Third International Conferences on Structural Stability and Dynamics held in 2000 (Taipei), 2002 (Singapore), 2005 (Orlando, USA), this fourth Conference continues to provide an international forum for presentation of recent advances on various aspects of theories, analyses, experiments and designs related to structural stability and dynamics. In particular, it will reflect the state-of-the-art of the computational methods, software development, networking technologies, new and advanced structural materials and engineering applications characterized by stability and dynamics features. HOME

CONFERENCE TOPICS

Topics will include (but not limited to): buckling and postbuckling responses chaotic dynamics computational methods damage, fracture, and fatigue experimental methods geometric & material nonlinearities nano/micro/meso mechanics nanoscience and technology noise and microvibrations shock and wave propagation structural optimization HOME

static and dynamic stability fluid-solid interaction composite structures structural health monitoring novel computational methods thin-walled structures earthquakes, winds and impacts biomechanics active and passive control AI and expert systems high performance computing

CALL FOR ABSTRACTS & PAPERS

Authors are invited to submit 1-page abstracts in the aforementioned topics as soon as possible, but not later than the deadline shown below. The abstracts should clearly indicate the aims and conclusions of the studies. Both abstracts and final papers will be fully reviewed by experts in the areas of structural stability and dynamics and the procedure will conform to the standards required for refereed conference papers. Please note that by submitting a paper, you are committing to have at least one author to register for the conference if the paper is accepted. Selected papers from those presented at the conference will be invited to be peer-reviewed for publication in: International Journal of Structural Stability & Dynamics (http://ejournals.wspc.com.sg/ijssd/ijssd.shtml) Mechanics of Advanced Materials and Structures (http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/titles/15376494.asp) International Journal of Computational Methods in Engineering Science and Mechanics (http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals) HOME
